Never waste a good crisis, Clinton says on climate

Boy, this idea of never letting a crisis go to waste is starting to sound like an echo in the Obama administration. First Rahm Emanuel, and now Hillary is parroting this. This concept is not new, where did the New Deal come from? It came from fear, "we have to do something!" Doing nothing is much better than doing the wrong thing.

I believe that the Global Warming policies coming our way are in the top 3 greatest threats to our nation. In my opinion, the 3 greatest threats are Terrorism, Global Warming Policies, and our open borders. I don't know what order to put them in.

The policies of Global warming pose the greatest threat to our economy and our liberties and freedoms. Cap and Trade is a huge tax where companies will have to buy carbon offsets to pay for their carbon emissions, which is proven to crush economies. The smart grid technology gives the gov't the power to implement cap and trade on individual households by giving them visibility and maybe eventually control over the usage of electric devices you use in your home. Do you want the government in charge of your thermostat? There are a flurry of taxes on automobile usage coming too. A mileage tax, new fuel sales tax, huge increases in state and federal fuel taxes, and a carbon emissions tax on you likely based on what you drive and how much you drive. And this is barely the tip of the iceberg of all the punishment for carbon usage coming our way.

This is coming from the Left (both Ds and Rs). Don't ever call the political right fascists. This kind of government intrusion into every aspect of life is coming from the left, it always has and always will. Conservatism is about protecting and promoting individual liberty, freedom, and limited government that fears the people. In the end the Global Warming politicians could care less about the climate, it's about their insatiable lust for power, Global Warming provides a useful crisis to attain this power from all the useful idiots getting suckered into believing the Global Warming Hoax.

Check out Obama's new 1 trillion dollar tax increase in his new budget. It is the greatest assault on achievement, and charity, this is not "equality" or "fairness". Basically it's an assault everything that made America great, which is what he's all about anyway.

Tax hike for 100% of Americans

http://apnews.myway.com/article/20090303/D96MR05G2.html

Let's be clear, a tax credit is not a tax cut. And besides how can you get a tax cut if you don't pay taxes to begin with. That's called welfare America, and it's immoral.

It's a darn shell game which ends up being a tax hike for everyone. Here's an analogy, they give sub-$250K/yr people $10 as a tax credit, then tax those evil rich and carbon-emitting industries, which increases your energy costs by $30 and cause rich people and companies to cut jobs, close the doors, or not open them to begin with. And the politicians are hugging each other with tears in their eyes proclaiming how the new tax plan is more equitable and fair. It helps those who've been left behind for the past eight years. Please, I think I just threw up in my mouth.

And when he lets those evil Bush tax cuts expire, guess what, its a huge tax increase for those same 95% of Americans. Funny how Obama left that detail out in his campaign drivel. Remember everything Obama says has an expiration date (as Rush has proved).

If you tax industry and the rich, pain trickles down through higher costs for goods and lost jobs. If you cut taxes for the rich and industries, prosperity trickles down, by lower costs for goods and more jobs. I've never known a poor person to start a business and create jobs. Obama is creating equality by taxing the rich out of exisitence and making more people dependent on government, which solidifies the hard left's power for years to come. Look at Michigan, that's what's coming to America. It's an age old strategy. This is not hope or change, this is insanity, because it's been done before and failed.

Socialism fails everywhere it's tried. Conservatism promotes Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness everywhere it's tried in its pure and un-perverted form. Conservatism gives people the opportunity to move up, Socialism punishes achievement and brings the losers up and the achievers down to the same level of misery and slavery to oppressive government, who by the way live like kings on the backs of the people. That's Obama's idea hope and change.
