Having crippled the economy, ruined the health care system and reduced foreign policy to a shambles, the only thing left for the administration to pursue is climate change which doesn’t even exist.
 
In that regard, in mid-February according to news reports “U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry called on all nations to respond to "the greatest challenge of our generation. Climate change ranks among the world's most serious problems -- such as disease outbreaks, poverty, terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.” 
 
Speaking before college students in Jakarta, Indonesia, he also criticized climate-change deniers, saying "a few loud interest groups" shouldn't be given the chance to misdirect the conversation.
 
And then today, Steve Watson of Infowars.com reports that, “A professor with Rochester Institute of Technology has called for the incarceration of any American who actively disagrees that climate change is solely caused by human activity.
 
Lawrence Torcello, a philosophy professor with a Ph.D. from the University at Buffalo, published the comments as part of an essay submitted to the academic website The Conversation.
 
Torcello argues that malignant individuals, who he does not identify, are collectively organising a “campaign funding misinformation” about climate change. Torcello goes on to suggest that such activity “ought to be considered criminally negligent.”
 
However, at the same time, Mr. Watson notes that, “According to a Gallup poll conducted earlier this month, two thirds of Americans do not believe that the colder temperatures the country has been experiencing is related to human-caused climate change or global warming, instead believing that normal seasonal variations are at play.
 
The “scientific consensus” on the matter says that human activity is a factor in temperature changes, thus under Torcello’s “updated” law, two thirds of Americans would be at risk of being deemed as criminals for expressing these beliefs.”
 
So, what that means is approximately 211,333,333 U.S. citizens would be incarcerated if this guy Torcello had his way, to punish them for having rational thoughts about the weather which hasn’t changed an iota in the last seventeen years. Even Warren Buffett thinks the climate change fear-mongering is bunk.
 
But what’s really interesting about the statistics is that two thirds of the population is being hampered and harassed based on a false premise, which is roughly the same as those who’ve had their heath care negatively affected and/or made more costly due to the administration’s pandering to special interest groups.
 
Because this is an administration wherein facts and data don’t matter. All that counts is payback and payout to allies and friends, regardless of whom else gets harmed or stung in the process.
 
That’s it for today folks.
 
Adios
