The news Obama doesn’t want you to know

By Lonely Conservative

While President Obama was busy peddling Obamacare, administration officials went overseas to continue his world apology tour.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton travelled to India to talk about climate change and how it’s all America’s fault.

“We acknowledge now with President Obama that we have made mistakes in the United States, and we along with other developed countries have contributed most significantly to the problem that we face with climate change,” she said. “We are hoping a great country like India will not make the same mistakes.”

She was referring to Obama’s statement in Italy earlier this month that the U.S. had “sometimes fallen short” of its responsibilities in controlling its carbon emissions.

Commerce Secretary Gary Locke, in the meantime, went to China to expand on the “America is bad” theme. Now it’s “America is bad and must be punished.” The Wall Street Journal reported this Friday night (via Hot Air).

But yesterday, Commerce Secretary Gary Locke said something amazing—U.S. consumers should pay for part of Chinese greenhouse-gas emissions. From Reuters:

“It’s important that those who consume the products being made all around the world to the benefit of America — and it’s our own consumption activity that’s causing the emission of greenhouse gases, then quite frankly Americans need to pay for that,” Commerce Secretary Gary Locke told the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai.

The idea that rich-country consumers should pick up the tab for some of China’s industrial emissions has been gaining currency lately—but not from within the Obama administration. The argument is that many of China’s factories churn out cheap stuff for the West, not for domestic consumption, so those consumers are actually responsible for the emissions. China, of course, loves the idea. 

Not only do they want us to pay through the nose for our own energy consumption, they want us to pay for China’s as well. Like Hillary Clinton said, they believe we are environmental sinners. And Gary Locke knows just how to punish us for our alleged sins.

Funny how these stories came out on Friday, when nobody was paying attention, isn’t it? You just have to wonder, if Americans knew Hopeandchange was synonymous with punishment would they ever have elected Barack Obama?

    These scumbags should be tried for treason. They know the are promoting the lie of global warming and trying to cripple this country with taxes and regulations for their own political gain. What more could it be than treason? I’m sick of this trash apologizing for America.If they are so ashamed of this country,pack your s**t and catch the next boat to Venezuela.They put Hitler’s propagandist on trial for their crimes I believe the people promoting this farce should face their own Nuremberg and the same penalties.I volunteer to build the gallows.
