Crazy report for May 28 - 

 

It is reported that the White House is establishing a "War Room" to deal with all the charges, revelations, news reports, leaks, and other challenges to how the office of president is being run.  The term "War Room"  implies there is a real war which then implies there is a real enemy.  What the staffers assigned to this new War Room will learn fairly quickly is that one of their prime enemies is the president himself.  to wit:

 

-  He often says one thing and contradicts himself shortly thereafter

-  Stories to explain some unusual event from the White House keep evolving every time a new question is asked about it

-  He makes statements that have never been discussed or vetted with his own staff

-  He sends his spokespeople out to explain some new policy or strategy, then contradicts them the next day, throwing them under the bus.

-  He makes promises that he has no hope of delivering on

-  He clearly doesn't understand how government operates, or how the Constitution is the rule book for it

-  He ignores laws, traditions, and protocols that have been part of government service for hundreds of years 

 

The biggest challenge for the "War Room" staff will be telling the top dog that he has to stop pooping in the house.  It won't go well because this top dog thinks his poop doesn't stink.

The shrill repetition of "Fake News"  

for every unsavory fumble of the Orange Mussolini is a sure sign that even his naive supporters are wondering what kind of damage we are we talking about here.

 

Well, now that Ringling Brothers has closed down, we have a new circus in Washington, DC. 

And just like the elephant act, it will all be shut down shortly. (With a lot of manure left over.)

Exactly like Obama. One has to wonder if that is just the current state of being President. Or maybe just the fact that the last two presidents are both incredibly flawed.

Joe - if that's case, then we the people have very low expectations.  Both government and industries have been working hard over the past few decades to lower peoples' expectations.  One example - the airline industry has done a terrific job of getting their customers to endure horrific treatment, all while charging dearly for a ticket.  Our government is working from the same playbook.  No matter the party in charge, their plan is to tax everyone to the max while delivering nothing in return.  They promise a lot, but never deliver.  We shouldn't be letting them get away with it.  

 

One other thing - your comparisons to Obama are a little like Chris, who cites transgressions of the past to justify transgressions of the present.   It's a hollow argument.

An interesting (and depressing) contrast - Last week Trump criticized NATO countries for not pulling their weight.  This week, the same president is considering departure from the Paris accords regarding climate issues. America won't be puling its weight.  A tinge hypocritical?

 

For those of you who have been critical of hypocrisy, now's your chance to send an email to the White House pointing it out.  And while you're at it, send a similar letter to NATO regarding the same.

The Paris accords are simply a feel good, wealth redistribution system based on false science.  But you seem to not know anything about real science and ignore anyone who does so please carry on complaining about "hypocrisy" from your well insulated snowflake bunker......  Chris

It's MY planet too, and I cannot abide by idiots destroying our habitat based on disinformation from sources like Brietbart. 

Especially when it's so obvious the real motivation is a worship of money from lobbying efforts by the oil and gas industries.

There's no nice way to say this, but the climate change deniers are doubling down on stupid.

It seems crazy that some continue to deny climate change or deny the it is caused by human activity.  Addressing climate change has been an excellent job creator in America.  Since 2010, the solar industry alone has created over 260,000 jobs.  Wind turbine industry now employs 106,000.  

 

And yet, our government is trying to thwart renewable energy efforts in the hope of bringing back the coal industry.  Since Trump signed his executive order freeing some coal regulations, it's been reported there have been about 120 new jobs in the coal industry.

 

Just from the jobs creation perspective, Americans should be wholeheartedly supporting renewable energy development.  It's crazy not to.

Crazy is not acknowledging this graph below and not understanding that it makes your current climate change hypothesis, that man is responsible for it, ludicrous.  Just look at your global averages of CO2 and temperature and you will see that we are way cooler and have way less CO2 in our atmosphere than on average over millions of years.  If anything we are too cold right now and are very low on CO2 levels.   And look closely at that thick black line on the right of this graph, that's about how long any kind of "Man" has ever been on Earth.  From Lucy 3 million years ago to Miley Cyrus right now on this Earth...   Affecting the climate, I think not.  Go ahead, try and deny the science, the graph, the numbers, the reality of the actual numbers and still tell me man is responsible for the current "climate change" you are so worried about.   Oh, and this "climate denier" has solar panels on his roof by the way and I really do love my SMUD bill.   Chris

High fives all around today in the board rooms of America's dwindling coal companies and Koch Industries at Trump's removal of America from the Paris Accords.  

 

Major American oil corporations urged Trump not to withdraw because they've discovered that renewable energy development is a significant growth area in their industry.  All the other nations urged him not to withdraw.  I suspect the majority of Americans also believe it's a bad idea.  

 

A fundamental question remains - who is this man listening to?

 

There is some good news, however.  the Paris Accords aren't going away.  194 countries are still on board, as is California.  In addition, the last coal fired power plant in New England shut down this week, and two coal fired plants along the Ohio river will shut down before the end of this year.  And India cancelled the construction of coal fired plants in their country as well.  So the effort to reduce carbon emissions continues despite Trump.

 

Trump decides to join Syria and Nicaragua, the only other countries that did not ratify the accords.  Nice company, huh?  Even North Korea signed, along with 194 other nations, back in 2015, and North Korea is completely nuts and run by a pea-brained, quasi-dictator spoiled toddler with an gigantic head and tiny hands and… oh wait.

Reciting the DNC talking points again, robot boy? Climate Change is a hoax, fraud, and blatant money grab. Just because you've been brainwashed doesn't change that fact. God Bless the Courage of Trump!

That's right!
The accords will stay in place until 2020, by which time Trump will be out of office.
