WOODSIDE, Calif. (AP) -- President Barack Obama is swiping at Texas Gov. Rick Perry, criticizing him as "a governor whose state is on fire, denying climate change."

Obama also poked at the audience reactions at recent GOP presidential debates, singling out those who cheered at the prospect of someone dying because he didn't have health insurance - and those who booed a gay service member.

The MSM is trying to write Perry off from one debate. They appear to want Romney. As Rush has said, the left will let you know who their threat is based on the attacks and don’t let the media pick the candidate.

And, where do you begin trying to explain to President Dumb-As-A-Bucket-Of-Hair that "climate change" and wildfires are two completely different things??

President Omarxist denied federal help to secure the border in Texas and denied Federal help to put out the deadly wildfires. The Resident is a complete thugish jackass for trying to make a political issue out of it - Perry should round up every Federal/criminal EPA agent in Texas using Texas Rangers, duct tape their mouths shut, cuff them with plastic cuffs behind their backs, stand em up standing room only of a Southwest Airlines jet, and drop them all off at Reagan National Airport in the morning, barefoot. Except for the military and the border patrol, all other federal employees should be given 30 days to get out of the state, including Federal Reserve banksters.

Well, the equinox was supposedly on September 23, and that's supposed to be when day and night are equal in length. But on the Weather Channel they showed that tomorrow, Sept. 26, sunset will be exactly 12 hours after sunrise.

The equinox got delayed by 3 days. It must be because of global warming.

Had Governor Perry even stated any part of your post as his intentions as president he would have WON the debate. BUT no he needed to back hand the very people he needs to vote for him, kinda like how BamBamKennedy has ruled over US. By the time President Bush left office I was exhausted with his working with liberals to demonstrate his compassionate conservatism... there is not enough gold on God's green earth to pay for liberal minded covetousness.

I have watched the 'weather' closely over the past year in regard to a drought in the making. And as the year has progressed and the whole state of Texas in varying degrees of drought I wondered when that condition would be made a political tool to champion 'man-made' climate change. Governor Perry has the perfect opportunity to respond to Pharaoh that because of 'government' regulations Texas has only been allow to create 'green' energy jobs. AND the 'rain' stopped falling.

UPDATE:

Perry spokesman responds:

“Perry spokesman Ray Sullivan responded, “It’s outrageous President Obama would use the burning of 1,500 homes, the worst fires in state history, as a political attack.”

“The equinox got delayed by 3 days. It must be because of global warming. “

I thought it was because it was:
Bush’s fault
those racist teabaggers
Japanese earthquake
Arab spring
hurricane Irene
ATM’s

States are saved by faith in global warming alone, and global warming died for your sins.

Hey, Obama, you jerkface, over 1,500 people have lost their homes and many of them lost everything they owned. At least two people lost their lives and countless pets and livestock were killed.

Droughts and high winds happen and it’s not due to your stupid global warming or climate change scam.

Go to hell, jerk.

I believe the longer apparent daytime is due to atmospheric refraction, making the sun visible before the sunrise and after the sunset that would be seen on a hypothetically airless earth.

Would say, Obama has only just begun ; but of course, he has never stopped, even though on 'President payroll". Would add, there should be a law; but there already is.

(The PC realities that protect Obama from those who oppose him, do not in any way, protect Herman Cain, from his enemy opposition. Nor anyone else standing in opposition, to these people. Those rules; including legalities and even boundaries of basic human decency; never restrain a Lefty - or a Liberal - for that matter; whereby their political goals are paramount and so justified, by whatever means.)

We should be surprised by nothing the now 'empowered' do per this Election cycle; and we should be ready for just about anything. Obama, Inc. out to win it. And for these reasons; believe it all too possible, that they could succeed.

I wish someone in the media had the nads to ask Obama why the change from global warming to “climate change” and then watch him stumble around for an answer that sounds anything but nonsensical. Fact is, climate change is just another phony leftist creation, just like Obama is.
