After releasing a new set of guidelines aimed at pushing skeptical state governments to deal with the supposed risks of a changing climate in exchange for federal funding, the Obama administration and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) are facing a barrage of criticism. Among other concerns, critics contend that the White House is playing politics with disaster funds and overstepping its constitutional authority in a bid to force reluctant governors and state officials to join the anthropogenic (man-made) global-warming bandwagon or at least pretend that it has legitimacy.
In a 57-page policy document released this month entitled State Mitigation Plan Review Guide, FEMA made clear that it would stop providing funding to states that do not incorporate hypothetical dangers of alleged global warming into their emergency planning by next year. On the other hand, if states do take the funds, the agency also said it would help states weave global-warming theories into their official policies. The agency said it will work with states to identify tools and approaches that enable decision-making to reduce risks and increase resilience from a changing climate. In other words, FEMA wants more control over decisions made by the elected representatives of each state.

But his IRS will keep collecting federal taxes from them.
Does the name “Lysenko” ring any bells...?
When are the liberals in the Congress going to realize what kind of a person they are supporting and do something about it??? God help us.
So between declaring Congress in recess and making appointments to the NLRB, changing the Obamacare statute, declaring amnesty, seizing the internet without statutory authority, internationalizing a treaty to give the Senate the runaround, suggesting (so far) on unilaterally raising taxes, and now this FEMA order...
Not to mention IRS, Fast and Furious, and more other things I can’t recall, go visit Nachumlist...
Why is it so inconceivable that in 22 months he might not step down? Why is it kookery?
Straight up fascism.
Those states should secede.
FEMA should be on the Cruz agency hit list.
OUT-OF-CONTROL executive branch vs. states ALERT!
So, to restore parity without caving to stupidity, defund FEMA entirely. No reason disaster response should be a federal responsibility anyway. Trying to remember who wrote about state and private disaster recovery efforts in the Johnstown flood. Might have been Thomas Woods in Nullification.
Never forget: liberals WANT this. Saying nothing is tacit consent.
Sounds like the effected states should start seizing Federal lands and buildings and preparing for the confrontation.
OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the suns planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
While this is an obvious outrage, it's a head fake.
Watch what he's up to while we're dealing with this.
States should reject anything to do with FEMA, do their own disaster planning and response and pass laws to arrest and imprison FEMA personnel if they set foot in the state.
This is illegal and unconstitutional. When is somebody going to put Obama’s goatsmellin’ ass in prison where he belongs? Extortion might work well in his native Kenya but Americans shouldn’t have to put up with it.
$$$$ ONLY COMES IF, YOU BELBIVE, ONAMA-FICTION
Where in the constitution does it say FEMA needs to be funded?
At least he is consistent. Why be a part-time tyrant. Might as well devote yourself to it, which the Marxist in Chief does.
