| MRCTV caught up with former Green Jobs Adviser to Pres. Obama, Van Jones, at the "Forward On Climate Rally" at the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Jones stated he was there to make sure the president doesn´t "make the worst mistake he could possibly make" by approving the "horrible" Keystone XL pipeline - which would be "like lighting the fuse on a carbon bomb." "I´m here to make sure the President of the United States doesn´t make the worst mistake he could possibly make, which is to approve this horrible pipeline which would be,

I only saw the wisdom in taking secretarial science classes (typing) when I realized that it was packed full of babes with almost no guys (many years ago).
Barky and his crew care nothing for the actual activity involved here. They are just trying to get politically laid.

Anyone with more than 2 brain cells can see that this isn´t about CO2. Carbon Monoxide (CO2) makes up less than 1/2 of 1% of our atmosphere.

Van Jones´ goal is to keep the tar sands in the ground. He´s already lost that battle because we already import millions of barrels per day through other pipelines. The ironic element of the pipeline is that it might be built for moving oil from Alberta to Texas but because of growth in US production from ND, it might actually end up shipping oil from ND and WY to the gulf.

OK, get the Bugs Bunny cut in the queue.
So, any articles on how Van Jones avoids coal-generated electricity? Carbon-based gas in his car? Plastics [only 40% of petroleum goes into transport fuels, you know]? Food delivered by train, truck, forklift? Does he limit himself to 3-story buildings, or does he walk up 30 flights to avoid the electrically-driven elevator [and bring his own candles for light]? No phones, radio, TV? How does he heat water, wash, and dry clothes at home? Make toast? Refrigerate stuff? Does he let them use electric hair-clippers at the barber shop? If his house caught fire, I wonder if he´d have trouble explaining to 9-1-1 that he won´t let the fire department use those big diesel trucks, or take electrically-pumped-to-the-reservoir water from the hydrant? Or go in wearing tanks of electrically-compressed air on their backs? Or that he won´t go to the hospital in a diesel or gas ambulance after the fire captain punches his ignorant arrogant lights out? And forget x-rays!
Hmmmmmm?

In the meantime, the low info, low income Obama supporters are suffering disproportionately with high fuel expenses. They are the kings of hypocrisy. Higher fuel prices effect prices on almost all goods and services, and the poorest suffer the most. But the are just too ignorant to understand the truth and their leaders are not about to explain it to them. Power corrupts.

And if Obama does not approve it the Canadians will continue to ship the oil to the west coast via BNSF Warren Buffett Berkshire Hathaway Railroad. And Mr. Jones says the Republicans are denying science. Sounds like an Al Gore minion.

The only thing not approving the pipeline will do is keep the money out of the US -- most of this will make products that will be exported, and if it does not come to the US the Canadians will sell the stuff to the Chinese who have no issues with carbon emissions.
BTW #4 CO2 is carbon DIoxide not MONoxide (which is CO, only one O).

The unions are going to be furious if this isn´t allowed. They have been bought off so much that by now they may simply have to lump it. I hope every jerk involved in this controversy suffers. Why aren´t those of us with a brain out there picketing and screaming? The press hates anyone with a brain.

Bill Ayers believes President Obama gets a “failing grade” for his presidency, and should be tried for “war crimes,” along with all living presidents who have engaged in acts of “terrorism” abroad. Sitting down for an episode of RealClearPolitics’ “Morning Commute,” Ayers told host Charlie Stone that, on policy, Obama receives a “failing grade” along with the “F-minuses” he’s given previous presidents like George W. Bush and Richard Nixon. “I don’t think he’s let anybody down,” Ayers added, pointing to how during the 2008 presidential campaign then-Senator Obama consistently declared himself to be a “middle-of-the-road, pragmatic politician.”

National Security Agency Director Gen. Keith Alexander told the House Intelligence Committee on Tuesday that the NSA whistleblower that leaked classified information on the agency’s surveillance program caused “irreversible and significant damage” to the nation and helped America’s enemies. “I think it was irreversible and significant damage to this nation,” Alexander said Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) asked how damaging it was “to the national security of the American people that this trust was violated.” “Has this helped America’s enemies?” Bachmann asked Alexander. “I believe it has, and I believe it will hurt us and our allies,”

John Boehner (R-Ohio) said he might lose his job as House speaker over immigration reform, but he insisted he will not bring a bill to the House floor that does not have majority support of both Republicans and Democrats. Following the Republican conference meeting on Tuesday, Boehner was asked: “Rep. Rohrabacher said that if you bring immigration reform to the floor without the support of the GOP conference you will lose your job (as speaker). Do you think that’s accurate?” “Maybe,” Boehner said after a long pause, to laughter from reporters.

They are scared, because the party is built on fear and obstruction, and no matter how hard they try, it’s not working,” said Sharpton after reading a tweet from Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) that bragged about being “Obamaphobic.” “If supporting real immigration reform, not path to citizenship is ‘Obamaphobia,’ guilty as charged. RT is you’re a fellow ‘Obamaphobic!’” Cruz tweeted in response to Sen. Robert Menendez’s (D-N.J.) accusation that Cruz has

In line with Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel’s order for troops to have their workplaces searched for “degrading or offensive” materials -- part of an attempt to curb sexual assault in the military -- the Navy will inspect even its bathrooms. While what’s degrading or offensive is open to interpretation, the material can include song lyrics and “inappropriate cartoons.” In a memo sent on June 13, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus ordered that all sailors, Marines, cadets and civilian employees have their workplaces searched by June 28.

Last Friday, Organizing for Action exploited the six-month anniversary of the Newtown shooting. They mobilized their supporters for a series of anti-gun rallies across the country. In San Bernardino, that call to action was answered by three people. Ryan Hagen of the Sun, a local paper, wrote on June 14 about the failed rally. On Flag Day growing up, I used to always wave a flag with my grandson, and it hit me that the victims of that horrible tragedy won’t ever be able to do that,” said Curtis Lewis, the group’s gun violence prevention coordinator.

While unrest in Turkey continues to capture attention, more subtle and more telling events concerning the Islamification of Turkey — and not just at the hands of Prime Minister Erdogan but majorities of Turks — are quietly transpiring. These include the fact that Turkey’s Hagia Sophia museum is on its way to becoming a mosque. Why does the fate of an old building matter? Because Hagia Sophia — Greek for “Holy Wisdom” — was for some thousand years Christianity’s greatest cathedral. Built in 537 A.D. in Constantinople, the heart of the

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded. And Sarah blasted him on Twitter as a bully. Is that, is it, is he a bully? Is he a bad, what is he?

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:

Iran is preparing to send 4,000 troops in to Syria to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of America´s announcement it will be providing ´military aid´ to the country´s Muslim rebels. President Barack Obama made the pledge earlier this week after the U.S. claimed it found ´conclusive evidence´ Assad´s regime has used chemical weapons against the rebel forces--which includes the most extreme Sunni Islamists--and has called for Britain and France to back the move. While Britain hasn´t made a guarantee either way as yet, more than 350 Royal Marines are being sent to Jordan

During his interview with ABC’s Jonathan Karl this morning, Rubio didn’t even seem to understand what that meant. “Are you being played by the Democrats?” asked Karl. “Is Chuck Schumer playing you?” “I don’t — I quite frankly, I don’t even know what that means,” Rubio replied. “Is he using you?” Karl continued. “Is he using you to try to accomplish something that the Democrats want and is not — not a conservative bill?” Rubio responded that immigration reform was a bi-partisan issue that “all Americans
