Re: Busy Body Elitists
The Department of Homeland Security has a brand new mission, one that is sure to satisfy the Presidents green base by fulfilling one of his promises from the last campaign. You remember, the President promised that his election would mark the moment when “…the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal”. So what does Homeland Security have to do with oceans and the environment? Powerline has the scoop. Find the DHS document here:
Our Nation’s vision of homeland security is a homeland safe and secure, resilient against terrorism and other hazards, and where American interests and aspirations and the American way of life can thrive. In seeking to fulfill this vision, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) aspires to avoid burdening minority and low- income populations with a disproportionate share of any adverse human health or environmental risks associated with our efforts to secure the Nation.
So now “other hazards” is part of the job description for the administrators of groping, touchy feely DHS agents? What could it possibly mean for the good citizens of the USA? Anything they want! And that pretty much sums up the attitude of those power hungry individuals who work for “environmental justice”.
Have you noticed…suddenly, everything is about justice!
But justice is in the eye of the beholder with this administration. The fairness that’s implied in the word doesn’t ensure justice for all. It can’t because it is based on redistribution of wealth and picking winners and losers. Under these terms oppression is the word of the day. It doesn’t matter that those who have a lot earned what they have by their own efforts and it doesn’t matter how many jobs they have created for others in a lifetime or what they have already given in taxes and through charitable giving. They must give yup more to make the elites seem benevolent and caring. What matters is the perception that the big shot at the top, President Obama, is perceived as making life fair.
Obama is one of the benevolent sounding elites that will decide what is fair! There are others as we shall see.
A story that exposes the self centered aims of pushy elitists like the President is also in the news today. George Lucas has been attempting to build a studio on land he purchased years ago in Marin County. Over a twenty-five year period he has worked with locals to meet or exceed the environmental and esthetic concerns of his neighbors, including restoring local streams, leaving large swaths of the land vacant, and creating beautiful architectural buildings that would not be visible from the highway. The project would have brought hundreds of high paying jobs to the area. But his hotsy totsy neighbors don’t want the land used for business no matter how much it would add to the community in jobs and revenue and no matter how committed to being a good an environmental neighbor Lucas had demonstrated by his actions he would be.
More on this story, with a rendering of the proposed building, can be found here.
Lucas will regretfully move his facility to a friendlier site. Locals in another community will now reap the considerable benefits of this man’s creativity and generous spirit. I wish Chico could be the new home to Lucas we could sure use the jobs and the revenue he would generate! Lucas may have the last word yet, though. His parting shot for his haughty neighbors:
“The land will revert back to its original use for residential housing. We hope we will be able to find a developer who will be interested in low income housing since it is scarce in Marin.”
Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of people!
Power corrupts and the truly power hungry are gearing up to control every aspect of our lives!
We need real change in November and it doesn’t include the elitist snobs now in control of the presidency and the many departments under him.
The people are rebelling This following story represents a few glimmers of hope…real HOPE for the American people!
Fifty top astronauts, scientists and engineers at NASA have signed a letter asking the agency to cease its global warming buffoonery. The global warming emperor has no clothes, and people are finally saying so out loud and in public…the signers have a combined 1000 years of professional experience.
They don’t seem to be happy with central planning! Remember when President Obama changed NASA’s mission?
In January 2010, Bolden labeled NASA an “Earth improvement agency” and said it would essentially scrap manned space exploration and concentrate on “researching and monitoring climate change.” This redefined mission came with additional funding. NASA was going to spend more, and do less.
Then in July 2010, Administrator Bolden announced NASA’s mission as threefold: (1) “re-inspire children”; (2) “expand our international relationships”; and “foremost” (3) “reach out to the Muslim world.” He condescendingly explained that Muslim outreach would help Islamic nations “feel good” about their scientific accomplishments.
This President and his cadre of elitist control freak supporters MUST BE DEFEATED so that Americans can get back to doing what they do best…making the country thrive by restoring and supporting creative aspirations that provide opportunity and real justice for everyone!
Absolutley spot on, Tina.
Speaking of elitist “justice”, today Eric Holder praises Al Sharpton and is focusing the DOJ on Zimmerman.
Yet he still ignores the Black Panthers. I wonder what Holder’s response would be if some radical group put a price on HIS head.
NASA has become a joke, thank you Obama! I sincerely hope Obama’s remaining time as Fool-In-Chief are months, not years.
Romney and the Republicans had better stop getting mired in loser side issues and start playing to win. Otherwise, the US will suffer four more years of this destructive and idiotic administration of progressive Moonbats.
Oh, the Department of Homeland Security. The biggest waste of taxpayer money ever. Except we don’t know how much we spend on them, they’re budget is “classified.” We pay for them to take away our civil liberties.
With our new “secure” homeland our Department of Justice sells guns to Mexican drug dealers and our TARP-bailed-out banks launder the Mexican drug cartel money. Feeling safer yet?
Don’t worry, the DOJ will weigh in on the Trayvonn Martin case and take credit for the prosecution of a person that was going to be prosecuted anyway (That is totally the Obama MO, take credit for the work and obvious outcomes of others). The Sanford police did not even investigate this shooting. Zimmerman’s clothes weren’t even taken into evidence for crying out loud.
Now, NASA is a joke but we can’t blame that on Obama. That is one more failure of the Bush presidency from 2005 that started winding down our space program. But you can see how fast Obama has worked to turn that around. Nope. Maybe someone else can come up with a plan to turn it around, and make it happen and then Obama can take credit for it.
