It has been noted before how there’s a noticeable disconnection between the rhetoric and the actions of the politicians and activists pushing the climate-change agenda. It’s not rational to make healthcare the focal point of a presidential campaign while claiming that carbon dioxide emission is “an existential threat.” Who dedicates all its energy and resources to long-term plans for healthcare that will be useless anyway, because “we’re all going to die in 10 years”? Shouldn’t you be focusing on how to cut carbon dioxide emissions, and looking for feasible ways to produce the required energy? Unless, of course, you don’t really believe all that apocalyptic nonsense, and are just using this hyperbolic rhetoric to advance hidden agendas.

Hardly anything illustrates this disconnection like Obama’s new mansion in Martha’s Vineyard. Would you be spending close to fifteen million dollars on a property that may be underwater in ten years? Only an idiot would do that, and Obama is definitely not an idiot. The other possibility is that he’s a hypocrite: I can live with that.
