Punishing Climate "deniers"

You know there has been a lot of talk on lefty news sites on how to punish the "climate change deniers".

Arrest Climate-Change Deniers
AL GORE: ‘CLIMATE CHANGE DENIERS MUST BE PUNISHED’
RFK Jr. wants law to ‘punish global warming skeptics’
Professor calls for execution of “climate change deniers”

You can google and find a lot more.Which is why Whedon's tweet here is so typical.
Donning my tin foil hat here but now that government is firmly ensconced in our healthcare wouldn't you think that maybe sometime in the future the climate weenies will start to require everyone to declare their position on climate change on health forms?
Then they can decide who is deserving of medicine and life saving intervention based on that.

It's just a thought.

Regret in Leisure

How come nobody ever thinks this stuff through before hand?

Poll: Only 79% Obama voters would vote for him again
Given a chance to do it all over again, only 79 percent of those who voted for President Obama would vote for him again and 71 percent of Obama voters now inclined to vote for somebody else “regret” their vote to reelect the president, according to a new poll.
The Economist/YouGov.com poll found that Obama would lose enough votes in a rematch with Mitt Romney that the Republican would win. “90 percent of people who voted for Romney would do it again, compared to only 79 percent of Obama voters who would,” said the poll.~snip~
There were plenty of warnings before hand but of course it didn't dawn on people that their poor choice could affect them until it did. The health insurance market is in complete disarray since the roll out of Obamacare but the real pain has yet to arrive since the administration keeps delaying portions of the law to save the asses of democrats coming up for reelection later this year.

Along the way voters are starting to realize the damage done to the middle class and other working Americans.

Americans Identify Unemployment/Jobs As Nation's No. 1 Problem
(CNSNews.com) - What do you think is the most important problem facing this country today?
In response to that question posed by the Gallup polling organization earlier this month, 23 percent of Americans said unemployment/jobs are the most important problem, up from 16 percent in January.
The response cut across party lines, with Republicans, Democrats and Independents all choosing unemployment/jobs as the nation's most pressing problem in February.
Next on the list, 20 percent of Americans said the "economy in general" is the nation's most important problem, followed by dissatisfaction with government (19 percent); poor healthcare/hospitals-high cost of healthcare (15 percent); federal budget deficit/debt (8 percent); immigration/illegal aliens (6 percent); ethics-morals-family decline (5 percent); and education (4 percent).~snip~
Romney wasn't my first choice for the republican nomination but if he had won he wouldn't be purposely trying to destroy the middle class,jobs or the economy.
Lets hope we can turn our regrets around this year and in 2016.

Obama's Fantasy About Football...and other Things

It seems that if Obama had a mythical son he would look like Trayvon Martin and not be allowed to play football.

Obama would not let his son play football
Washington (CNN) - As the Patriots, Broncos, Seahawks and 49ers prepare to battle for two spots in the Super Bowl, President Barack Obama says if he had a son, he wouldn’t let him play pro football.
With an ever-growing amount of evidence linking the brutal sport with serious head and brain trauma, the President, who has two daughters, told New Yorker editor David Remnick he would bar his son from playing the sport. "I would not let my son play pro football," Obama reportedly said.
Since he doesn't have sons then he'll never have to face that decision, will he?
So why should any of us who have sons really care what his opinion on it is? Obama certainly has a lot of fantasies about what he'll do without having any practical experience.
Like deciding for everyone else what kind of healthcare we're entitled to even though he has no practical experience in either healthcare nor insurance.
Like making decisions about the military without any practical experience with serving his country.
Oh hell, or even like being president with no practical experience at being a leader.

Every last bit of advice or opinions he has on anything comes from almost no experience on the subject.
So he can take his mythical son and football and pound sand.
