Obama Using Oil Spill To Push Nightmare Green Economy
Agenda
Comparisons to 9/11 represent attempt to scare American
people into submission on climate legislation

The Obama administration is using the crisis in the Mexican
Gulf to sell it's nightmare agenda for a so called "green
economy", a push for initiatives that have, according to
its own government, led directly to catastrophic economic failure
in Spain.
The White House has enacted a direct emailing campaign, calling
for support to sell the American people on long sought global
warming and Cap and Trade legislation.
The emails sent out en mass to those on the Obama campaign
mailing list ask for a public lobbying effort to push for a
cap and trade bill in the Senate to match legislation already
passed in the House.
The email from Obama (see in full at the end of this article)
reads:
The BP oil spill in the Gulf Coast is the worst environmental
disaster of its kind in our nation's history. I am returning
to the region today to review our efforts and meet with families
and business owners affected by the catastrophe.
We are working to hold BP accountable for the damage to the
lands and the livelihoods of the Gulf Coast, and we are taking
strong precautions to make certain a spill like this never
happens again.
But our work will not end with this crisis. That's one of
the reasons why last week I invited lawmakers from both parties
to join me at the White House to discuss what it will take
to move forward on legislation to promote a new economy powered
by green jobs, combat climate change, and end our dependence
on foreign oil.
[...]Please stand with me today in backing clean energy.
Adding your name will help Organizing for America create a
powerful, public display of support for making this change
happen.
The green push hasn't ended there. In an interview
published by Politico this weekend, Obama compared
the BP oil spill with 9/11, noting:
"In the same way that our view of our vulnerabilities
and our foreign policy was shaped profoundly by 9/11, I think
this disaster is going to shape how we think about the environment
and energy for many years to come."
Just as George W. Bush's Afghanistan invasion plan was sitting
on the shelf before 9/11, Obama's
green economy bill has been laying in wait for
almost two years now.
Obama's stated intention to "Implement an economy-wide
cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80
percent by 2050" has not gone away.
Recent exposure of the fraud behind the climate science driving
the global warming movement had seemingly scuppered
Obama's chances of pushing through the legislation,
which would see some $2.9 trillion shaved off the economy by
the year 2050 if enacted. The legislation would also reduce
GDP by 6.9 percent – a figure comparable with the economic
meltdown of 1929 and 1930.
Now, however, in the wake of the BP disaster, and a tightly
controlled public relations machine managing it,
Obama has seen an opportunity to gain momentum, once more wheeling
out his "clean energy" rhetoric:
"One of the biggest leadership challenges for me going
forward is going to be to make sure that we draw the right lessons
from this disaster." Obama noted in the Politico interview,
clearly intimating that one of the "right lessons"
would include passing his radical climate change legislation.
On several separate occasions, over the past two years, Obama
has referred to the "green economy" policies enacted
by Spain as being the model for what he envisions for America.
It is precisely this kind of "green economy" that
has left Spain with a 20 per cent unemployment rate, virtually
bankrupt and in
need of being bailed out by the rest of Europe.
A
newly leaked internal document from Spain’s
Zapatero administration outlines how Spain’s “green
economy initiatives” have been a financial disaster.
In this so-called "green economy", over 2.2 jobs
are lost for every “green job” created.
"Today’s leaked document reveals that even the socialist
Spanish government now acknowledges the ruinous effects of green
economic policy," reports Christopher Horner.
"Despite the soft-pedaling, the document reveals exactly
why electricity rates "necessarily skyrocketed" in
Spain, as did the public debt needed to underwrite the disaster.
This internal assessment preceded the Zapatero administration’s
recent acknowledgement that the "green economy" stunt
must be abandoned, lest the experiment risk Spain becoming Greece."
Obama admits in his mass email, "There will be transition
costs and a time of adjustment." This translates to gas
and electricity prices going through the roof, huge new taxes
and regulations on U.S. businesses, and the ushering
in of an era of green policing where, in order
to meet its stated goals, the U.S. government micro-manages
citizens and enterprises to ensure they are being "eco-friendly".
Without question, developing alternative energy methods and
encouraging the use of solar and wind power for means of self-sufficiency
and reducing dependency on oil and fossil fuels is a fantastic
notion and should be widely supported. But this isn’t
about helping the environment, it’s about exploiting people’s
legitimate concern for the planet by diverting their attention
and getting them to enthusiastically partake in their own enslavement
while mandating their fellow citizens do the same.
Welcome to another dose of the “change you can believe
in,” trillions more of taxpayer’s money thrown at
a scam that has nothing to do with saving the environment and
everything to do with raping the middle class and the poor while
erecting a gargantuan police state system of informants and
enforcement to carry out the elite’s new feudalist agenda.

The email from Obama in full:
Dear xxxxxxx,
The BP oil spill in the Gulf Coast is the worst environmental
disaster of its kind in our nation's history. I am returning
to the region today to review our efforts and meet with families
and business owners affected by the catastrophe.
We are working to hold BP accountable for the damage to the
lands and the livelihoods of the Gulf Coast, and we are taking
strong precautions to make certain a spill like this never happens
again.
But our work will not end with this crisis. That's one of the
reasons why last week I invited lawmakers from both parties
to join me at the White House to discuss what it will take to
move forward on legislation to promote a new economy powered
by green jobs, combat climate change, and end our dependence
on foreign oil.
Today, we consume more than 20 percent of the world's oil,
but have less than two percent of the world's oil reserves.
Beyond the risks inherent in drilling four miles beneath the
surface of the Earth, our dependence on oil means that we will
continue to send billions of dollars of our hard-earned wealth
to other countries every month -- including many in dangerous
and unstable regions.
In other words, our continued dependence on fossil fuels will
jeopardize our national security. It will smother our planet.
And it will continue to put our economy and our environment
at risk. We cannot delay any longer, and that is why I am asking
for your help.
Please stand with me today in backing clean energy. Adding
your name will help Organizing for America create a powerful,
public display of support for making this change happen.
The time has come, once and for all, for this nation to fully
embrace a new future. That means continuing our unprecedented
effort to make everything -- from our homes and businesses to
our cars and trucks -- more energy-efficient. It means rolling
back billions of dollars of tax breaks to oil companies so we
can prioritize investments in clean energy research and development.
Many businesses support this agenda because shifting to clean
energy creates opportunities for entrepreneurship. This is how
we will reinvent our economy -- and create new companies and
new jobs all across the country.
There will be transition costs and a time of adjustment. But
if we refuse to heed the warnings from the disaster in the Gulf
-- we will have missed our best chance to seize the clean-energy
future we know America needs to thrive in the years and decades
to come.
The House of Representatives has already passed a comprehensive
energy and climate bill, and there is currently a plan in the
Senate -- a plan that was developed with ideas from Democrats
and Republicans -- that would achieve the same goal. But this
is an issue that Washington has long ignored in favor of protecting
the status quo.
So I'm asking for your help today to show that the American
people are ready for a clean-energy future.
Please add your name to mine:

President Barack Obama
