For all his promises, Obama’s green plans have utterly failed. The question is: Why isn’t anyone talking about this?”
Well, we are. And the track record suggests that politicians ignore blog chatter at their peril.

Because it's damned embarassing when your torch a few trillion dollars...at taxpayers expense!

Yes, only blogs are talking about it. Several billion in miss-directed or outright stolen tax dollars, zero MSM chatter out there.
Interesting. Could it be because the American (AND Canadian, AND British) media has been bought at auction and paid for by Friends of the DemocRat Party?
Could be.
Tonight CharlesAdler on CKNW said the latest CNN poll says Obama 9 points up on Romney. Says war on women has gender split of women in double digits favoring Obama.
I can't believe that 9% of the population could still support the Comunist Potus!
With election debates coming up shortly, it will not be ignored much longer. The whole green agenda has been a dismal failure and Obama's incompetence will be highlighted for all to see. Even his dense followers should understand that his "Hope and change" has deteriorated to no hope and change for the worse. This will be one ugly election and the only option for Obama is class warfare as he sure as hell can't run on his record. Ms.Fluke was the FT.Sumter and the war has begun.
If you believe that CNN poll....you probably believe in CAGW and the tooth fairy....
Indeed.
"Green" policies are enormous wastes of cash for ineffective energy sources promoted by eco-fanatics. The average American should be fried that money they don't have is being wasted on this crap.
Well at least Obamba promises that he will never exercise his newly imposed devine right to imprison American citizens without due process with the NDAA that he signed into law on Dec 31 2011.
No trail, no jury, indefinite detention et al.
It's reassuring to know that he promises to keep at least one promise while in office.

Do I detect a bit of sarcasm?
Detecting bits of scarcasm is a prerequisite around here...just sayi'n...
Why aren't they talking about it? Because, if you SAY that your actions are going to "Save the environment" then surely that's good enough.....they don't have to actually DO it...it's the 'thought' that counts, after all.
Good intentions, an' all that.
Great comment Kate.
At one time, not so very long ago, politicians could ignore stories that were not widely covered by the NT Times or the alphabet networks. No longer, because these media dinosaurs are now being pushed to cover those things that they would gladly have hidden from the public before most people started getting the news from websites.
Within a few days George Zimmerman morphed from a “white Hispanic” who hunted down a small, angelic black boy who liked candy, called him a racial slur and executed him for walking while black … into a guy who was bloodied and banged up after being punched by Trayvon Martin and shot to defend himself as his head was being pounded into the pavement.
Would this transformation have taken place without the Internet? Not a chance. “The Narrative” was too good. The media had another “Bonfire of the Vanities” and were not about to let go if not for the truth being told by bloggers.
The Bigfoot of them all, the NY Times reacts by going silent on the news pages and letting its columnists carry on the narrative, pandering to the racists on the Left. But the narrative has such hold on the mass media that even Fox News gives Trayvon Martin a new first name: “unarmed” as in Unarmed Trayvon Martin. Every time.
Never have we seen the corporate American media so obvously coopted by an administration. It's not surpeising the alphabet networks and MSM dailies are bleading subscribers like a wounded bronto.
I can see genetic communist reflex in the Obama machine. Communism (whether its militant or happy face communitarianism) rides on controlling the media and messaging to the public. The old line commies called it propaganda, the Alinskyites in the Whitehouse call it community outreach. Same crap differnt pile.
I can predict one thing about the coming POTUS election - with this lot of Latte sucking Chicago commies it will be amoung the dirtiest campaigns in history - lyin' cheatin' back-stabbin' and dirty dealin' the Chi-coms (Chicago commies) will be putting it all on the line to keep this corrupt autobot in officee.
"Kate.
the new Oprah."
One (of many) differences: Kate doesn't have the "thyroid condition" Oprah has used as an excuse for her obesity.
Can you imagine if Oprah tried to emulate Kate and was found squatting down for a photo next to a motorcycle in a pair of Daisy Dukes?
Suddenly the leftover Boston Pizza I just had for an early lunch is starting to back up!
MoneyRunner, Sean Hannity's show is the best and most honest on Fox, which is why Zimmerman himself called Sean.
don't forget folks, those 16,000 green 'jobs' that were supposedly 'created' include things like assigning a bus or taxi driver or even a mailman a hybrid vehicle instead of his regular one... net jobs created = zero but another one's magically added to the 'green' column
Reuters: Obama's 'Green Collar' Jobs Have Been a Bust
http://nation.foxnews.com/wind-energy/2012/04/17/wind-industry-has-lost-10000-jobs-under-obama
A recent lengthy report by Reuters confirms what many conservatives have long known: President Obama's promise to create millions of so-called "green jobs" has been a colossal and expensive failure.
A few highlights from the report:
1) Since 2009, the wind industry has lost 10,000 jobs, even as the energy capacity of wind farms has almost doubled. By contrast, the oil and gas industry have created 75,000 jobs since Mr. Obama took office.
2) "A $500 million job-training program has so far helped fewer than 20,000 people find work, far short of its goal." The program was so bad that "the Labor Department's inspector general recommended last fall that the agency should return the $327 million that remained unspent." They didn't. And now, the department "remains far short of its goal of placing 80,000 workers into green jobs by 2013."
3) According to the Labor Department's own figures, the push for so-called "green jobs" has been an abysmal failure. "By the end of 2011, some 16,092 participants had found new work in a "green" field, according to the Labor Department - roughly one-fifth of its target."
"Why isn't anyone talking about this?"
Whadayamean! Here in Ontario Tim "The Hammer' Hudak is just POUNDIN' away on old Dildo McDinky over his green energy crap.
You trying to say you haven't heard him?
