Axelrod! You dolt!

He's the former Senator from Illinois.

He has a house in Illinois.

It gets cold in Illinois.

It snows in Illinois.

Slick Willy, out.
Chilly Willy , in.

Obama: ebonics for Quisling.

Actually, He's only got 3 years and 327 days left, 12-12-21 (Mayan calendar end-of-times date) After that, it won't matter....(he said toungue-in-cheek)

Silly Conservatives,

The White House is heated with natural gas boilers; carbon is not a byproduct of natural gas combustion.

What do you think is going to happen in the summer months? Oh jeez I never thought of that. The air conditioning is going to be turned off; no coal burned, no carbon emissions.

Its no wonder conservatism is in the toilet; so hellbent to prove liberals wrong that you forget all about the fundamentals!

Do as I say, not as I do.

Landed here on Ig-day. Those "huge" signs of excitment for Zero around Waikiki ? Two O teeshits. That's it for his "Homeland".

And yes it ain't warm enough to grow Flowers in Illinois.

The Media is truly out of control. Desparate. Will go to any lengths to save their way of "life".

not stirred enough
Have you been going to the school of Al (full of it) Gore?
Natural gas is the cleanest of all the fossil fuels. Composed primarily of methane, the main products of the combustion of natural gas are CARBON Dioxide and water vapor.

Not Stirred Enough should take high school chemistry. Here is the balanced equation for combustion of methane (natural gas)

CH4 + 2O2 yields CO2 + 2H20

Another global warming acolyte who knows little or no science whatsoever

"Stirred", are you THAT MUCH of a dolt? The two primary products of the combustion of natural gas are 1) water vapour, and 2) CARBON DIOXIDE. Yes, the SAME carbon dioxide that the AGW wingnuts are now proclaiming is a mortal danger to the planet, and which is naturally expired by every form of animal life on the planet.

Walters: Are there sacrifices that Americans as individuals can do?

Barack Obama: Yes. The first thing, I think, is for the American people to draw on that reservoir of confidence and stick-to-it-ness and perseverance that my grandparents had during much tougher times during the Great Depression. The second thing: Each of us have a role to play in not being wasteful when it comes to energy. For us to turn off the lights when we leave the house, to make sure that we’re unplugging the chargers that we use on our cell phones.

Walters: You talk about light bulbs and so forth. When you’re in the White House, are you going to green the White House? Are you going to turn off the light bulbs, tell the kids to turn the - you know?

Obama: Absolutely. One of the things I want to do is, is to – I’ve already met the chief usher there, a wonderful man, a former Admiral of the Coast Guard, and one of the things I want to do is to sit down with him and, let’s do an evaluation. How are we using energy in the White House? Part of what I want to do is to show the American people that it’s not that hard."

I guess he draws the line at thermostats?

Not stirred enough you as well as the Messiah remind me of a big tank full of s---.

Silly 'not stirred enough' doesn't know his basic chemistry. If he did, he would know that Methane when burnt produces some CO2, and that Natural Gas has CO2 in it...naturally!!

Silly troll. Natural gas does indeed contribute to carbon emissions; to a lesser extent than coal perhaps, but contribute it does.

Every molecule of methane (chief constituent of natural gas) burned yields one molecule of CO2, and two of water vapor, a potent greenhouse gas in its own right.

Maybe you should pull some of that wool from between your ears, and knit Obama a sweater.

Hey Kate, lay off the guy. He's about to fix the Ottawa bus strike.

Why else would Ambrose suddenly flip flop on back to work legislation, a day or two after Obama's Ottawa visit was confirmed?

It couldn't be that it would be embarrassing for the Messiah to be picketed by striking bus workers during his visit, could it?

not stirred enough---- what a genious?

nothing like spouting your ignorance to the world.

time to leave mom's basement , take you hand off your joystick and get a real job.

Still silly after all these years...

Natural gas is the cleanest of all the fossil fuels. Composed primarily of methane, the main products of the combustion of natural gas are carbon dioxide and water vapor, the same compounds we exhale when we breathe. Coal and oil are composed of much more complex molecules, with a higher carbon ratio and higher nitrogen and sulfur contents.

This means that when combusted, coal and oil release higher levels of harmful emissions, including a higher ratio of carbon emissions, nitrogen oxides (NOx), and sulfur dioxide (SO2). Coal and fuel oil also release ash particles into the environment, substances that do not burn but instead are carried into the atmosphere and contribute to pollution.

The combustion of natural gas, on the other hand, releases very small amounts of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, virtually no ash or particulate matter, and lower levels of carbon dioxide.

Carbon dioxide is not carbon fly ash.

Ah, nicely done, not stirred enough!

Proven an idiot, you move the goalposts.

Either that, or you were intentionally dishonest in your original posting.

You know, if you think about it, the answer is obviously "c" -- all of the above.

Re: Slamming "not stirred enough"

Bo-ring! Whatever. Enough already, don't kill the thread!

It will be interesting to see if the new "informality" and "Aloha Zen" can continue a hard work ethic - or whether this will morph into a bunch of slackers

this bird is going to be named after Obama, brown with white spots, lives in a cave, babbles.

http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20090129/babbler_bird_090129/20090129?hub=SciTech

genous Obamababbler.

Erik,

Moving goal posts; just like what PMSH did this week to conservatism?

WRT AGW

Laura Ingram speaks for me. This is exactly why I consider any plan by PMSH to tie $ to CO2 a betrayal. I don't believe for one second that PMSH believes the AGW theory! IMO our politicians have unanimously decided to thrust new taxes on us under the guise of "consensus". I will never forget hearing Stockwell Day on Adler(or Green?) say when asked if he believed in GW " I've traveled up north and spoken to the people, and there is no denying that something is happening". Perhaps he should have been asking people back home in Alberta if they'd been feeling the warming lately; after all, talking to people is considered scientific research these days.

The Won, May 2008:

“We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK,” Obama said. “That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen,” he added.

And by 'we', he meant 'you'.

Cash for Clunkers
sema(specialty equipment market Association)& its U.S A. Members successfully petitioned that the "Cash for Clunkers" not be included in the Stimulus package, However Democrats have introduced New legislation in both the the senate & HoR (s247 & hr520) to create a national scrappage program, it will give US. tax dollars to consumers who turn in their gas guzzlers to have them crushed.
they will recieve vouchers ranging from $2500-$4500 based on model yr.& replacement is more efficient.
Model yrs are 2004 & later.

*that was an excerp of what was sent to me, just last week as a Canadian SEMA member.
* i guess they do not know what a tune-up is, There are many New products on the market that will improve the efficiency of a vehicle, also in Ontario we have the Inspections for drive clean. Note the starting yr.,2004, A 4yr old vehicle!. Up to $4500 thats worse then the depreciation of a vehicle when its driven off a lot, now this is assuming that the vehicle was purchased New & even if it was purchased as used most Dealers will change plugs, oxy sensors, air filters, fuel filt. etc... as they want the vehicle going out in tip top shape whether its a Test drive or a purchase.

So in one day, he proves his "flinty Illinois toughness" to the cold by telling the locals - who've lived there more than 2 weeks I presume - to go out and drive on icy roads. He also says that because he's from Hawaii and "hates the cold", he is permitted to jack the heat up in the White House to 72+ºF (greenhouse temperatures we're told) after telling us not to in order to save the planet? Or is he like Nancy Pelosi, who thinks natural gas isn't a fossil fuel?

I can't WAIT to see this embarrassing scene play out on the news tonight!

Silly Conservatives...

psssst

Obama is pulling a Mike Harris photo-op trick; get photographed with shirt sleeves rolled up to give the impression of hard work. The only wrinkle is that when in the oval office taking of the jacket gives the same impression; only with a more formal slant. They can't say that so they invented the warmth spin.

Somebody send this to Harper! Please!

Just google not stirred enoughs exact words , It appears he plagerized them right out of ask amazon,.... cause he really does have no clue.
Lightweight.

I wonder how much school closure is predicated on predicted staff absences. The teachers and support staff, unlike the (wealthy) students, likely don't live within a few blocks of this exclusive school, and don't have drivers to take them to the front door.

I wonder how many workers have a looooong commute to get there (roads, public transit), that can be made pretty difficult by adverse weather conditions.

No facts for background, just a guess.

We need the white trucks and padded rooms for these global warming idiots quickly. When you see fools like Hansen Gore and Suzuki giving this 5 billion old earth timelines until its demise,,, and there are idiots that believe this,, time for intervention. Start by sterilizing these humanoids. In 1989 the big brained Ted Danson gave us ten years, that didn't go his way did it!

hard work? stirred , please.

remember the guy hasnt even had a paper route.

not stirred enough SILLY IDIOT

And what if natural gas doe'nt contribute to carbon emissions? So let us pretend it does'nt. Let us than consider the energy used to find,extract and finally deliver natural gas as a finished product for consumption. I'll give Zero an "A" for contributing to the economy but an "F" on being a hypocryt.

richfisher, Yes I did cut and paste from a web site and I should of given credit to the author. No excuse for it, I apologize.

cal2, Sure he's never had a paper route that's why I used the word 'impression'.

Shawn, You are correct; getting it out of the ground and all the associated processing/trucking does produce actual carbon.

combustion of natural gas.
CH4 + O2= C02 + H20

looks like a formula for carbon dioxide emmissions to me.

Obama has never had a job. he was a community organizer. appears to pay rather well in little Chicago.

Impression, no Im not the least bit impressed by the empty shirt. with or without jacket.

Again the old Democrat play book is evident: DO WHAT I SAY, not what I do.
I am here to tell you how to live while I live quite well, thank you, with YOUR money!! And, I give it to my friends in Congress and on Wall St. any way I want because you voted for me and I WON!
( I was actually getting away with that BEFORE I was elected and YOUR money was used by my co-horts in Congress to ENSURE I got elected. How ya like them apples! SUCKERS!)

Dealers will change plugs, oxy sensors, air filters, fuel filt. etc... as they want the vehicle going out in tip top shape whether its a Test drive or a purchase.

======================================

Um, no, car dealers do NOT do these things, as it would put money into a vehicle before sale, and if it does not sell then they will whole sale it, and if too much invested they will lose money when competing with other whole sale deals. About the only pre-sale investment they do is cleaning, I know because I was in that business for a while. We accuse lefties of speaking before informing themselves:-))))

Stirred quote:
"Yes I did cut and paste from a web site and I should of given credit to the author. No excuse for it, I apologize."
You should apologize for your English too. It's no better than your chemistry.
"should've" or "should have" is correct.

Empty suit, empty shirt and crooked as a dogs leg. Love affair for the media will be a long one.

Not stirred, you really need to understand a lot more before you wade into an energy debate. First, black carbon ash isn't the problem with coal, unless you've never heard of electrostatic precipitators. They've been pretty much standard issue in coal-fired plants for the more than three decades or so.

Second, nitrogen oxides are a function of combustion temperature, the higher the temperature the more the NOx. Methane burning CTUs function at much higher temperatures than coal-fired boilers, meaning MORE NOx, not less, per BTU of energy generated. Oh, and as a side note, because they are usually functioning at higher load factors, low NOx burners are much more economic on coal-fired units than CTUs with catalytic converters.

Even if we spot "not stirred enough" his goalpost move, any natural gas in excess of what he needs comes out of current stocks, creating the cost and climate impact of replacing it, which is not zero. Same with Gore's use of biodiesel for his houseboat.

But idiots like this guy are in charge now, so we better get used to the idea that "we are all chubby interns now", including shaken there, he is just too stupid to figure it out.

Maybe shaken is Nancy Pelosi, who claimed that natural gas was not a fossil fuel, or maybe he just believes the crap that comes out of her mouth.

In any event, I am sure that shaken is grateful to Sarah Palin for getting that natural gas pipeline from Alaska through Canada started. Yeah, I am sure of it. He thanks her every day.

Gym are you or were you a member of UCDA?
stick your lefty Comment.

damn it. call algore.

Ah ... let em eat cake right?

Maybe he should move the White (Chocolate?) House to Hawaii. Not only would the pork be farther from home but in my experience the farther away from the seat of 'power' one is, the saner things get.

Here's a site with a countdown to the end of Obama's first (and only) term:

hoping for change

Bring back Billy Beer!

“Mr. Obama, who hates the cold, had cranked up the thermostat.”

But in today’s National Post, Obama is quoted as saying, “My children’s school was cancelled today [January 28th]. Because of what? Some ice? . . . We’re going to have to try to apply some flinty Chicago toughness to this [city],” he added.

Of course, unlike the rest of us, Obama can believe/do polar opposites at the very same time. Is there anything of which this guy isn’t capable?

(There seems to be a pattern developing of preachiness and implied put-downs from Schoolmarm Obama: not such a good idea, IMO.)

Wonder what Jimmy Carter thinks of Obama's excuse? He turned the thermostats down to 62 and up here in Ont. close to the border, our school board passed on the order to all principals. Unfortunately for me, whose office was by the pupils' schoolyard door, our principal was the only one to take up the challenge.
I've always had a grudge against Jimmy. My neck was bent at a 45 degree angle all winter.
Jimmy was from the hot, hot south, but had pale white skin. Wonder how that equation worked for him?

lookout - yes, I agree. Obama is, as a narcissist, so sure of his own supremacy, that he is starting to preach and insist that everyone do as he says. He isn't respecting others as equal to him.

He begins his agenda by saying that IF you disagree with what he wants to do, the problem is not in his program, but in you. So, he tells the House that IF they reject his 'stimulus plan' it means that they are making their decision, not on the lack of merit in that plan, but because they are 'blinded by partisanship'. So, Obama's narcissism leads him to claim that what he proposes is perfect; if you critique it, the fault is in your psychological nature.

He's chastizing people as if they were children; he's insisting on his plan because 'he won'.
There are all signs of someone acting, not as an elected leader, but as a Sovereign (Elshtain's book). Very worrisome.

I can only say in response to this post, and the post to come, that I am whole-heartedly in support of the editorial policies here.

Guantanamo Judge Denies Obama's Request for Delay

A military judge threw a wrench yesterday into the Obama administration's plan to suspend legal proceedings at Guantanamo Bay, denying the government's request to delay the case of a detainee accused of planning the 2000 attack on the USS Cole. ...

It used to be called "Global Warming".

Then it became to be known as "Climate Change".

That was then, but this is now.

Yesterday in his testimony to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Al Gore described the CLIMATE CRISIS that we are now facing.

It must be a crisis because he mentioned CLIMATE CRISIS at least 8 times in his testimony.

I wish they could clone Laura Ingram. Her voice gets me all a tingling.

two thoughts:

1. It now seems unlikely that BO will ever recommend Americans "wear a sweater" like jimmy did.

2. Perhaps there is another reason for the heat - intimidation and. Dominance of visitors. All of those who come to see him will have to sit sweltering in suits while he is relaxed in shirtsleeves. BO certainly wouldn't be the first potus to engage in such tactics.

I'm way late with my brilliant pun, but... apparently he is turning the White House into a Green House/greenhouse (geddit?).
(Re. Mugs quoting Baba Wawa at 1:49 - "green the White House".)
You're very welcome.

not stirred enough...wow, just wow. The dumbing down continues. Does someone dress you or have you learned to do that yet?

For goodness sake! He's at work, he should be allowed to take of the Jacket. I do. BUT, to say he cranked the thermostat because he's from Hawaii is just stupid! HE'S FROM CHICAGO, it gets cold there, DUH! If the man likes to work in shirtsleeves, so what! Just say "He likes to work in his shirtsleeves". That's it! Done! There's no need to make up a story. Despite the fact that he is a protectionist socialist asshole, he still has the right to work in shirtsleeves without it being a big deal.
