Said Oliver Twist and it may become our national slogan under President Obama.
I commented yesterday on his bizarre reference to his intention to control how much we eat but still couldn’t believe my ears. Now, I have a second source.
“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.
That’s the only mention of his statement on Google News.Today’s quote is even worse. Not only is there a presidential candidate suggesting that the federal government should control how much we eat, but he says that other countries will set the standards.
A few days ago, I was going to post about how the global warming thesis provides the basis for totalitarian government. I rest my case.
Barack Obama, World First!
