President Obama declared war on oil and natural gas at the United Nations global warming summit, and he made the same pitch to the G20 meeting in Pittsburgh, Jerome Corsi's Red Alert reports.

obama promised during the campaign that utility costs would rise dramatically, but voters didn’t pay any attention. He didn’t hide his agenda, so in this case Americans will get exactly what we were promised.

“”I will work with my colleagues at the G20 to phase out fossil fuel subsidies so that we can better address our climate challenge,” “

Translation:

“I shall conspire with the other 19 crooked politicians to eliminate civilization and thus better serve our world masters.”

Obama didn’t hide his position. But The Party Propaganda Ministry (formerly known as the Media) hid it for him. They never covered it. Many of the voters never heard his comments.

You’re right. My lib friends just dismissed it as right wing disinformation - even though there was video footage of the speech in which he said this.

Taxing an industry at a far higher rate than others and returning a very small percentage of that really doesn’t meet most peoples description of subsidy.

Do you consider your property tax deduction of your home to make you “subsidized” by the federal government? That’s what these claims amount to.
