Obama orders government to prepare for impact of global warming
The Washington times ^ | November 1, 2013 | Dave Boyer

President Obama issued an executive order Friday directing a government-wide effort to boost preparation in states and local communities for the impact of global warming.

The action orders federal agencies to work with states to build “resilience” against major storms and other weather extremes. For example, the president’s order directs that infrastructure projects like bridges and flood control take into consideration climate conditions of the future, which might require building structures larger or stronger — and likely at a higher price tag.

Does everyone know why Obama would issue an EO for Global Warming? Ordering the Feds to work with states is a cover for illegal activity i.e., meddling in your state's agencies? An Executive Order for this? Trouble ahead folks from the little community organizer, he knows he couldn't win this one if he went to congress...win what....thoughts.

I think this shows the President is mentally ill, and thus should be removed from office for psychiatric care.

So now Obama is a Civil Engineer. Just great.

Good to know they can predict the future.

The Obamacare failure isn’t enough. Now the won will tell TXDOT (and others) how to build bridges.

Adjudicated mentally deficient and thus denied 2nd amendment rights? Seeing as how they spend oodles more on “climate change” than border security, I guess it all makes sense. HUH? No it doesn’t. Never admit your wrong and lie til you die.

Our local meteorologists are predicting a colder than normal winter. Anyone who tries to regulate my heat consumption will be a dead man.

KMA Obama!

I think it’s time for our elected officials to stop the more “polite” disagreements and tell those SOB’s what WE’RE really thinking.

No, he is nt a civil engineer. Who builds infrastructure? UNIONS!!!

Obama is stealing money from the treasury to give to the unions so they can kick it back for 2014 and 2016.

I believe ts is called RICO and is a criminal offense. Also explains McConnels sellout of America.

They should all be prosecuted

The most useful thing dumBO could do for Global Warming is jump in a volcano.

Consider it another shot across the bow - even though he/they know we're increasingly on to his illegal and un-Constitutional activities, he sends out another EO designed to further the subjugation of the People.

The worrisome thing is that they must think they have already won or they would be more discreet.

“Does everyone know why Obama would issue an EO for Global Warming?”

Just a guess, but I would say this is part of Hillary’s “Third Way” campaign to get into the WH.

Obama, believe it or not, will keep moving further to the left.

The talking heads will then start talking about how the American people are “hungry” for a moderate and people are tired of “extremist” from both sides.

Hillary will be that moderate, the one in the middle, the one that has a “Third Way”.

“They should all be prosecuted.”

But then they wouldn’t want “the American people” to lose faith in their government’s leadership!

More money for their private piggy banks. Isn’t it time to separate them from their piggy banks?
