“Leaked OMB CO2 memo: “no demonstrated direct health effects””
“All is not well in CO2 regulation land. You may have heard about a leaked memo from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) that questions the EPA findings on CO2 being a “threat to human health”.”

“It has some strong language about the negative impact EPA regulation of CO2 would have on the U.S. economy.”

““Making the decision to regulate CO2…is likely to have serious economic consequences for regulated entities throughout the U.S. economy, including small businesses and small communities,””

“The memo has no listed author but is marked “Deliberative–Attorney Client Privilege.” A spokesman for OMB told Dow Jones Newswires that the brief is a “conglomeration of counsel we’ve received from various agencies” about the EPA finding, the conclusions of which would trigger regulation of greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.”

“At a Senate hearing [yesterday], Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) grilled EPA administrator Lisa Jackson about the memo.

“This is a smoking gun,” Barrasso said, accusing the EPA of making the finding for political reasons.”

    Seems like everything has to leak out! Cover up is the neckalace of the obama adm.

  2. Thanks, CW, for bringing these chinks coming loose in O’s armour. I was having a real bad day but feel a little better.
    I’ll be on the teleTeaParty in about a 1/2 hour.

    Anyone interested go to http://www.thegopcomeback.com/Freedom

    “Join a free telephone call with Governors Mark Sanford of South Carolina and Rick Perry of Texas to collaborate on our plan to fight for freedom and win America back.”

  3. Kim,
    I submitted my info on the form, but how
    do I get in on the phone call?

  4. If you didn’t get a call at 8:30 EDT, you don’t get in on it. They called me and I answered but I got a prerecorded message: Sorry we missed you. But sign the petition.
    Strange.

  5. thanks, Kim. Maybe next time.

  6. Yes, I signed the petition.

  7. There is no way in HELL I will ever support another Republican/GOP RAT, ever again! These are spineless weasels! Each and every one of them! They care nothing about real Conservative Values! Yet,people keep flocking to RINO’S because they take advantage of all of us when Conservatives are disenfranchised. Go ahead and flock to Perry and Sanford, they know you are RIPE for another set-up!
    Rick perry,Sanford and other republirats seem to think they have escaped scrutiny. In my little, they have not! Any RINOS that have servived, are only allowed to. They are there to make Conservatives FEEL GOOD! Oh really? The GOP survivors are here to catch the MASSES!
    only to betray you again. The entire existing GOP establishment needs to be purged never to be seen or heard from again.

  8. Kathie,

    I couldn’t agree more! Excellent analysis. The Republicrats need to be made extinct.

  9. Kathie & Jeff— o.k., but how do we get rid
    of the Dems in now? Form a Third Party– is that
    what you think will do it–and win?

  10. I was not going to support the Republicans, I was going to demand they (Sanford and Perry) move along discovery on the Grand Juries. You can stay on a sympathetic website and piss and moan, or you can use whatever avenues are open to further our cause.

  11. Reporter Jim Tucker of the American Free Press confirmed that U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is attending this year’s Bilderberg meeting in Athens, Greece.

    Geithner’s presence is in violation of the Logan Act, intended to prohibit American citizens without authority from interfering in relations between the United States and foreign governments.

    what you think will do it–and win?
    ************************************************

    It will take too much to form a 3rd party for now….we are left to choose the least of two evils which for now is the Republicans. Conservatives are too divided and the moderate Democrats will never go for a 3rd party but I think many will switch to the Republican party after this dangerous spending binge on the part of the Democrats. Sanford and Perry have seen the light and many others are coming on board as well….we must reshape the party to it’s glory years and the true GOP party if we are to defeat the Democrats next year!!! I am an Independent and I vote for the man or woman….not the party!!! We must elect true American patriots whether they be Republican, Democrat or any other party for that matter!!!

  13. A third party will just guarantee more Obama. That’s the sad truth. People are engrained to vote either D or R and barely look at the candidate.

  14. Dr Keyes will be on Hannity tomorrow, it’s fairly certain he will bring up eligibility—and that would be a first serious legitimate deadpan coverage of the issue on major news, ever.

  15. Maddie,

    There are already several independent parties that will do nicely for America.

    For Conservatives, Christians, and Constitutionalists, there’s the Constitution Party. It’s the 3rd largest party in the U.S. already and has been around since the early 90’s.

    For Liberals, there are a couple of choices. They include the Independent Party and the Green Party. There are other choices for Democrats who want more from their government.

    We need to step out of the box of “there’s nothing else out there”. Of COURSE THERE’S PLENTY OUT THERE! That’s becase this is AMERICA and we like choices!

    DON’T TREAD ON ME!!!

  16. annelynn,

    I will be shocked if Keyes mentions the eligibility issue. This will be about Notre Dame and abortion. I heard Hannity interview Keyes the other day and listened intently, only to have my hopes of Keyes bringing up the issue dashed.

    I will listen anyway. Maybe he could mention just how embarassed ND will be when they find out he is an ineligible president and they awarded him an honorary “LAW” degree.

    Usually these hosts ask their guests to stick to the subject at hand due to time constraints.

    I hope I am wrong

  17. Okay….this is could be offensive to some people, but I got a good laugh when someone emailed me this today…..skip this if you are easily offended by crude stereotypes and jokes about private body parts…..rated PG-13

    One thing that needs to happen in Washington DC, is more accessibility, to our representatives. Our representatives are so insulated, and buried so deep, in the system, by “staffers” one, cannot even determine if a Senator, or Representative, or The Attorney General, ever received, and read, a letter, addressed to them, and sent, via certified mail. Same thing goes for the SCOTUS , and their clerks.

  19. bob strauss

    sandy, also my daughter’s name, that was great, if anyone is offended, by your post, that’s too bad.

  20. Go ahead and flock to Perry and Sanford, they know you are RIPE for another set-up!

    ***********************************************

    I agree with you Annelynn—–We will be shooting ourselves in the foot as conservatives if we don’t vote for the party that will give us the most conservatives and that is the Republicans…..for now we can not fight the two party system….especially with all the brainwashed young people and minorities who are in the bag for the Democrats. They don’t have a clue how these radical Liberal Democrats are ruining our country!!!

    **************************************************

    These parties would do nicely but by dividing the vote of conservatives we can never defeat the Democrats and that is what they are banking on. Divided we will fall again and again….until there is only ONE PARTY left standing and I doubt it will be one that follows the Constitution!! WE are bucking a two party system and the only way is to get real conservative candidates to run as Republicans and vote for them….they would be Republicans in name only….but conservatives in values and principles! We must make sure we get the right people elected….too many parties are dividing the Conservative vote!! I’m not sure why you can’t see that Jeff??? I voted for Dr. Keyes last election but he didn’t even come close to defeating the Republican Candidate!!! We will defeat the Democrats with a really good Conservative Republican….many older generations will never vote for a 3rd party…as Annelynn said it is too ingrained in people’s minds that it is a 2 party system!

  24. truthbetold11

    Sandy remember if hannity brings up the issue the fairness doctrine will fly faster than a speeding bullet and may silence voices that try bring the issue up, rush,hannity,greta, all know the truth they just need us to keep bringing to light or they will be tarred and feathered in the press and the usurpers attack dogs. This can’t be about them it has to be the silent majority keep bringing it up!!!

  25. Maybe you are right. But that doesn’t explain why they did not bring it up prior to the usurpation

  26. Obama begging for terror attack in US:

    Singh: Al Qaeda already has Pakistani nukes
    http://www.debka-net-weekly.com/
    So Obama uses some white phos on Afghan kids to really “ALLINSKY” stir things up…provoke them faster

    And Obama wants to help them all he can
    rolling out the red carpet (for bloodied Americans)
    plastic coffins at the ready
    Martial law only requires some ink

    Obama just slashed port security
    http://www.securityinfowatch.com/The+Latest/1311515
    no more screening of shipping containers

    Obama secretly stops program allowing pilots to carry guns

    We’ve been down this road before. You’re approaching this as the “my vote will be wasted” scenario where the Democrats win and the spiral continues.

    The DnC is not the only threat to our Constitution. The RnC is just as much a threat, if not more because they are two faced as evidenced in the ineligibility issues in this last election. They are not true to their Conservative base and their platform does not center around the Constitution. It is completely evident that the Republicrats are really one giant party. Voting for either negates the two party system.

    I’m glad you voted for Keyes. It was a wise choice. I voted for Baldwin. It was a wise choice. Until people get out of the mindset that we have to pick a “lesser of two evils”, we will continue to spiral into the bowels of political hell. All it takes is one excellent, grounded, tough, friendly, and constitutional candidate who speaks for the Conservative movement and the Republican party will collapse under its own weight.

    It worked for Lincoln. It most certainly work for the Patriots.

    Perhaps I should run for office. My first executive order would be to make sure every member of Con.grass be investigated for fraud. My platform would be:

    1. Get rid of illegals
    2. Indict Con.grass
    3. Indict illegal SCROTUS justices
    4. Veto all bills automatically as none of them are read
    5. Push to amend the Constitution to repeal Amendment XXI and XVII.
    6. Eliminate the Federal Reserve.
    7. Ensure all troops return home
    8. Travel the country non-stop until every city and state government is visited and heard

    And I would do it all in 2 years. Would you vote for me?

  28. The last article you posted has been pulled. There was also a warning about it being false.
    Let’s hope so….I’ll ask all my pilot friends

  29. Jeff…..how bout a flat tax…eliminate IRS

  30. sandy,

    I’m sorry, item 5 should read Amendment XVI, not XXI.

    Yes. IRS would be GONE. Only flat federal tax of 14%.

    It is my belief that the states are getting absolutely no say in what’s going on at the federal level. To be an affective President, he OR she must devote at least 50% of all efforts to ensure the states and their people are getting what they need.

    The President is supposed to represent the states, work with the states as a diplomat, and serve as a diplomat to other nations. Once this happens, our nation will take a u-turn and head right to the top. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

  31. annelynn,

    Great. Remove all threats to terrorism. Let the terrorists go. Keep the borders open.

    This man and Con.grass truly are TRAITORS to the United States!

    FBI, where the HELL ARE YOU??? Can you please get these criminal traitors out of office so that we can protect ourselves from attack? You took an oath to protect the Constitution and the people it protects. Please, DO YOUR DUTY!

  32. Jeff I would vote for you. Can someone please fix the streets in my area? Hard to walk the dogs with holes in the streets, my ankle still hurts 3 weeks later after falling. Did they not up the rent 10 years ago to pay taxes to fix the streets??? I am fighting mad, and will not take it anymore. Millions of our tax money going to forign countries??? And I am in physical pain.

  33. Margie,

    Thanks!

    Roads need fixed along with lots of other things. But when your state and local governments have to use that money that would normally go to fixing things to pay for nonsense federal programs, you can see why so many states are ready to hop out of the union altogether. And yes, they will get to that point soon enough.

    *************************************************

    I would vote for you if you were on the Republican ticket with a chance to win….We need to find a person with your platforms who will run as a Republican….you don’t have a chance in any other party. AS Annelynn said and I agree….the country is ingrained with either a Democrat or a Republican……even though you discuss what your platform is…..millions of voters go to the polls uninformed and still only vote for the party!!!! Many people voted for Obama simply because he was black….they didn’t care what he stood for as evidenced by the state of the nation!!! Your biggest obstacle is getting people to listen to you and as an unknown that would be difficult. You would have to pick the least of the two evils and that would still in my book be the Republican Party!!

  35. Sean H. on radio says Newt G. will speak on
    his TV show tonight, saying that Nancy Pelosi
    should “step down” now. I totally agree.
    I’d like to see her and a ton of others all go away.

    Is it possible that Pelosi could get thrown under
    the bus prior to the final throwing under the
    bus of Obama? I have my hopes up now.

  36. BHO Thugs Making the Innocent Look Guilty Daily

    ”You knew you were guilty the first time you sentenced an innocent man,” is what the American judge, Dan Harwood said to the German judge when Judge
    Ernest Hanning “Why?”

    People who deny specific crimes they commit knowing full well they are guilty ultimately inadvertently pay the price. The price is paid by the invisible master called guilt. Some of the serial killers, who got away with their murders for years, seemed to be very glad to confess to them in the end. Ed Bundy, BTK Killer, Jeffrey Daumer and many others found great comfort in admitting their guilt. They were relieved they were caught. Some even created ways for themselves to be caught so ultimately, they could confess.

    The pain of guilt is not limited to just murder. There are all kinds of crimes that bring deep inner misery to those who commit them. Even the most amoral narcissist ultimately suffers from guilt one way or another. Adolf Hitler suffered in many ways from being the criminal he was. He constantly had nightmares and counted in his sleep. He lived in constant fear of being assassinated. Ultimately, Hitler committed suicide to avoid public trial. Some might argue there were attempts on his life so he had reason to fear assassination. I will counter, if Hitler were not guilty of any crimes against his country he would have no reason to fear assassination and thus not suffer guilt. I truly believe O.J. killed Nicole. He managed to get himself in jail. Drew Petersen seems not to suffer from guilt. Let’s see what will be coming forward on that. Guilt is a strange animal.

    Barack Hussein Obama, aka Barry Sotoero knows very well he is not a US Citizen. He also knows very well he does not qualify to be president under the three requirements of the US Constitution. BHO also knows the meaning of serving as president while not being legally eligible to be President. This is also no secret to the many people who surround and have supported him through out his campaign. I suspect George Bush, Cheney, The Clintons, and an army of other people also were aware prior to and after Sotoero’s election. They chose to pretend everything they are doing is perfectly legal, while they betray America.

    What boldly confirms my suspicions is the nearly $1,000,000 that Obama has spent in legal fees defending the nearly 100 legal suits that have brought against him regarding this one vital issue. What has rudely awakened me about the entire crooked government is that NOT ONE JUDGE IN AMERICA TO DATE HAS HAD THE SIMPLE JUDICIAL INTEGRITY TO REQUEST OBAMA PRODUCE HIS DOCUMENTS. That’s a whole lot of cover up and a whole lot of truth to keep attempting to shove under the rug to continue pretending to be something he isn’t. That something he isn’t is a legal American President. He knows he is an imposter and usurper. So do all of the above mentioned people know he is a fake, illegal and a usurper. That’s a whole lot of people carrying a whole lot of guilt lying to the American people every day.

    What is even uglier is these guilty liars know we the American people know that BHO is not an American citizen and is a usurper. They know that we know that they know the imposter has no legal right to be president and they have to pretend every day they are telling the truth. Everyday they are faced with the disgusting task of attempting to make the innocent look guilty—so they can continue holding their illegally gotten power.

    Everything they have politically gained, they have done so by cheating, lying, stealing, violating decency, ethics, and the US Constitution. Now nothing this nest of snakes have gotten from all this today brings them joy. Every thing they have gained is glaring at them and mirroring like a monument to their own rotten character.

    Father Jenkins of Notre Dame is guilty far more than just asking Obama to speak at this year’s Commencement. Father Jenkins is especially disgraceful because he has chosen to ignore the most vital question being avoided by BHO. Does Obama even have the right to be president since Obama has failed to prove he is eligible? If Father Jenkins ignored Obama’s abortion policies, it is not surprising he chose to ignore his eligibility issues as well. Thus Father Jenkins has chosen support and honors the guilty while violating the innocent. He has chosen to honor false gods.

    It is only a matter of time that Obama’s ill gotten Presidency will become a curse so hideous, he will regret his ambition. BHO will crumble inwardly because he does not have the inner steel to perform for a prolonged period with the hell hounds of guilt snapping at his soul 24/7. Every where he goes, whatever he does, the innocent harmed by his crimes of usurpation are glaring at him. The law suits just keep coming. The innocent are suffocating him. His watch dogs are impotent in their ability to protect his from the hell hounds of his guilt and power of the righteous that refuse to give up their demands until he steps down. I notice, already, Barry is beginning to show signs of breaking down. His looks are rapidly changing. His nest of snakes is being eaten by the same hell hounds. They got what they “wished” for but were never prepared for the enormity or horror of what they got.

    Everyday with the full and clear knowledge they are guilty they face America to attempt to make the innocent look guilty. Every day, every heart beat, every breath, every private thought, every denial, every hour, minute, second they know they are guilty and that we know they are guilty while they pay millions to convoluting lawyers to say they are not.

    “The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.” Albert Einstein
    MSM and every one else has got to stop treating BHO as if he is a real President. He is not!
