What Obama Did on His Summer Vacation: Kill 760,000 Jobs (Thank Those Who Voted For Him)
And unfortunately, those who stayed home.
I was no fan of Romney, but at least he wouldn’t have done this.
We could replace coal with plastic.
Save
I believe the Usurper-in-chief is deliberately trying to inflict as much economic pain on this nation as possible.
He sure would not have and if people are not waking up things will get much worse
I hope you realize that plastic is made from oil.
He wants to destroy this great nation and wants to make it into a third world country
That’s why it burns so well.
Let’s cut to the chase. Quit blaming the Obama voters solely. It was voter fraud that mainly kept him in office.
I wonder how many of those pesky seniors this will kill for the loss of heat or air conditioning.
I also blame those that refused to vote for Romney.
I seem to remember the Marxist Bragging,”my energy policies will cause energy prices to necessarily skyrocket”,so like it or not ,he did warn the American people what was coming and being the buffoons the majority of voters are these days ,we all will get it’
You know we all complain about all the lawlessness of this administration,but where is the opposition,or,is there any opposition? What a sad display on this Celebration of Independence Day.
I could not help but feel saddened when listening to people proclaiming how we owe our freedom to the courage and sacrifice of so many,and thoughts crept in the back of my mind,yeah and look what has happened,the scandals,corruption in the highest office of those charged with enforcing our laws,those who are supposed to act in accordance with the Constitution but flout it at every turn and there is NO out cry! We get comments on how politically brilliant,this is pathetic. I wish I at least could garner hope from somewhere,really sad.
“I also blame those that refused to vote for Romney.”
I held my nose and voted for Romney yet I don’t blame those who were disgusted by Obama and refused to vote for Romney . Rationale:
1) No citizen is under any obligation to vote for or against any candidate or vote at all. It is the candidate’s job to sell himself or her self to the voters. For over two decades the GOP has sold itself to conservative voters as “even though we say we are conservative we will compromise conservative principles when elected. However, we aren’t as bad as the Marxist Democrats.” It is the candidate’s job to sell himself to the voters and earn the vote, not the voter’s obligation to vote for “least bad”.
2) Romney flip flopped on so many issues over the past decade it wasn’t clear if his stated position during the campaign was his real position or not. Furthermore, his record of flip flopping suggested he couldn’t be trusted (much like George H.W. Bush on taxes). Anyone who looked at Romney’s real record as governor would know he was much more an advocate for the progressive agenda than the conservative agenda. Given his deceptive behavior, and his strong ties to the progressive elite establishment, it is difficult to say with certainty what Romney’s policy would have been toward coal and the environment once he landed in office.
3) Romney was the candidate of the GOP establishment. The GOP establishment today seems to be backing the progressive side on every major issue - gun control, immigration, gay marriage, deficit spending, support for Syrian rebels and the Muslim brotherhood, taxes (don’t forget even the house caved on tax rates), abortion and free birth control, and even Obamacare. Many of the GOP elite (McCain for example) proudly run around the country saying they believe in global warming. Romney himself said he believed in climate change and was deliberately vague in talking climate change policy during the campaign. Given the degree to which the GOP establishment has adopted the progressive agenda it doesn’t take a strong leap of faith to assume under a well orchestrated public relations blitz against coal by the media, Democrats, and environmental groups President Romney would have followed the same path Obama is pursuing.
4. Voting is a privilege and a responsibility but not an obligation in a nation that espouses individual liberty. If a voter is given only two choices and finds both of the choices unacceptable, the voter can certainly come to the conclusion it is irresponsible to vote for either candidate. Freedom to choose in the voting booth also means freedom not to choose.
“We could replace coal with plastic.”
We should replace coal with politicians!
Hate to see people suffer...job losses, soaring electric rates, rolling power outages but maybe folks will wake up and realize that elections have consequences. It’s no secret Zer0 had no interest in prosperity or job creation. Perhaps this will provide the much needed tipping point.
Forget that. It won't ever happen. Obama voters will blame the Republicans, not Obama or his policies. They will tell you that if the Republicans had not opposed and obstructed Obama, he would have straightened out the mess long ago and we would be living in a Upton Society today.
That would pollute the air beyond recovery.
What could he possibly do now that would cause them to begin reporting truthfully?
