The anointed one used his weekly radio show to add to the pressure on the Senate to pass the largest tax and free for all intrusion into the American way of life today. Once again he is using his same old argument that if this bill doesn't pass catastrophe will reign.

The sharply debated bill's fate is unclear in the Senate, and Obama used his weekly radio and Internet address to ratchet up pressure on the 100-seat chamber.

"My call to every senator, as well as to every American, is this," he said. "We cannot be afraid of the future. And we must not be prisoners of the past. Don't believe the misinformation out there that suggests there is somehow a contradiction between investing in clean energy and economic growth."

I couldn't agree more. DON'T BELIEVE THE MISINFORMATION being promoted that there is credible science behind this bill. Don't believe the claims that scientists have concluded that climate change and global warming are caused by man, and if not stopped, will be the end of the earth as we know it.

In a 17:1 margin scientists against that conclusion are ignored. The smoke and mirrors being used to promote this bill, which on the one hand says it will decrease "bad stewardship of ecology" by raising costs to such a point that it will necessarily cause a reduction in [green house gasses] being produced by evil corporations; while on the other hand will not cost anybody anything, is so deceitful as to be unimaginable. Check this out in his own words. This video clip give background on the impact to coal producers and tries to make the point that consumers will not have to pay for the increases because the government will send those affected a tax credit or refund. Ask yourself where do taxes come from? They come from you and your neighbors not the Government. The government does not do anything that produces profits and income that can be shared, they take it from us and in the current climate intend to take it from someone that they have decided has too much right now and give it to others they they choose that they feel has too little. How long will that last. If you think about it those that can will go elsewhere. Where do you go for money then a sliding scale down till everyone has a little bit of nothing. Is that the America that you want to live in. Watch Obama in his own word describe his vision of Cap and Tax.

Even to make that statement by itself basically says to the citizens of this country, that the belief held by those in power is: You are so stupid that given two completely contradictory statements you will not understand the lie and will just go along as you always have, when listening to a smooth turn of phrase.

Obama in his left leaning, head tilting, arrogant, pontificating, mind numbing rhetoric, obviously feels the same. Watch and listen to 3 of his speeches and pay attention to the pauses, cadence, and delivery and you will know exactly how the 4th one will sound. As some one once told me, familiarity breeds contempt. With Obama's penchant for jumping at every opportunity to get in front of a camera he has reached the point that like every other thing in life, too much of will give you a stomach ache.  Just look at his declining personal standing in the polls that are heading south to align with low apporval ratings of his policies.

I apologize for the digression but it all ties together. Back to the Waxman Cap and Tax Abortion. This bill has virtually nothing to do with improving the climate in other than a marginal way based on bad science with a false starting point for the argument. It has everything to do with causing intrusion into our lives personally and financially. Remember during Obama's run up to election, he said that his cap and trade bill would necessarily cause the price of electricity to rise tremendously--so much for the bill not costing anything...

If this bill makes it through the senate the consequence will be that everything we need from gas for our cars to go to work to the lightswitch we turn on in the evenings, even to the lightbulbs we can use in our homes, will be dictated by the federal government, with all of the inefficiencies and out of control costs that go along with every bureuracracy.

Even worse, in short order, the best and brightest people as well as companies will move their operations to countries like China and India that produce huge amounts of greenhouse gases and do not and will not subscibe to this lunacy. Even Australia has gutted this climate change nonsence. At a time when our economy is in the toilet, the last thing we need to do is create barriers to business, that will lose jobs, companies and growth.

Call, write, fax and email your senators to vote no on this insanity. Let them know that if they choose to vote yes that you will remember them in the 2010 elections and they will no longer be on your payroll. And yes, for those of you that don't realize it, government employees that are elected to represent you in congress are your employee's. If you had a 35% job approval rating from your employer in the company that you work for right now--how long in today's economy do you think it would be before you were fired. Think about it.
