Most humans have a tendency to believe that 'it' will never happen to them because 'it' always happens to "the other guy." The "it" of course is just about anything really terrible, including such tragedies as plane crashes, fatal automobile accidents, being mugged or shot, cancer, HIV, acts of terrorism, a nuclear holocaust, IRS audits or being married to either Sean Penn or Madonna.

Oh, pardon me; per the present administration's mandate "acts of terrorism" must now be called "man-caused disasters," my apologies to all the Liberals for my slip up.

Fortunately this very human belief that 'it' won't happen to them holds true for the most part and, of course, I do hope and pray that none of you ever have any of these things happen to you. But, unfortunately, one of the before mentioned tragedies has just been given the green light to befall many more of us than ever before. This 'it' was given the green light because of pressure from fanatical 'religious' activists and was proclaimed by their Messiah, that for all the land "his will be done."

This radical 'religious group' is of course America's 'All-American' church of Extreme Liberalism, which by the way has just recently elected their mysterious Messiah from the great inexperienced unknown. As nobody is sure just where he was born, and since it seems he cannot even produce a legitimate birth certificate, there is talk among his followers of a Divine Origin!

Extreme Liberalists claim that their deity is Earth itself, or as some would explain, The Environment, but in fact their gods are greed, fear and power. While you will not find actual churches claiming to house this religion, nor do its followers claim outright that it is a religion, but make no mistake about it as this extreme liberalism has become a religion to many in our country. This 'church' has taken over the once respected and desirable environmental movement that did a lot of good for all of us. But like most movements, such as labor unions, which start out to correct injustice; greed, the lust for power and human weakness has again corrupted a worthy endeavor. The oddest thing about this religion is that for what they claim is for the good of mankind, Extreme Liberalists are willing to sacrifice the good of mankind! Well, at least as long as they themselves are not the ones who are to be laid upon the sacrificial alters.

As with all religions they too have radical splinter groups, including, among others, Green Peace, PETA, The Green Party, Code Pink, the Global Warmers, the mainstream media and the new all-knowing Environmentalists. As far as these people are concerned there is not a problem in the world that couldn't be solved if the human race would just go away. Well, again as long as this does not include their part of the human race.

I say 'All-American' because that is what they will have you believe in spite of the fact that they hate everything about America and, in their opinion, its evil society. Dare to call them un-Patriotic and they will huff and puff, jump up and down and swear by all that is holy that they love our country as much as the next man or woman. Yet in this 'church' every worldly problem is America's fault. To them America is the land of the selfish, the wasteful, the greedy and gluttonous, the ignorant, the war-lovers, the racists, of the meat eating-fur wearing heretics, and of course, the arrogant. They have even called us, "a nation of cowards." They are all in full agreement that America needs "Change." So much so that if this proposed change is allowed to continue America will indeed cease to be America.

The Extreme Liberalism theology preaches class warfare between the 'wealthy' and the poor even though most of their preachers are among the wealthiest in our society. The net worth of Global Warming High Priest Al Gore when he left office as Vice President was two million dollars; it is now over 100 million. They lecture a cult of victimization to their followers using fear and hatred. They maintain that there is a double standard determined by race and economic class. They insist that if everyone does not sacrifice in their daily lives and habits that all is lost! Well, and again I stress that it is everyone else who must sacrifice but they themselves. Their promise through big government is to provide everything that their followers will need in this life.

The Extreme Liberalism 'bible' states that if it were not for America the world would be a better place to breath, eat, sleep and to raise, or abort, other people's children. If not for selfish America there would be no global energy problems. That every war America has ever fought was unnecessary and unjust, not to mention that the causes of these conflicts were always America's fault. (A Code Pinker on the Pearl Harbor attack - "What the hell were we doing way over there anyway?") They declare that the attacks on our country and countrymen by Islamic terrorists are just "chickens coming home to roost."

So as Extreme Liberalism advocates if not for America the world would be at peace and all men would live as brothers. If not for America, there could be simple diplomatic dialogue among adversaries to settle all grievances and disputes. If not for America Islamic terrorists would have no cause so they would defuse their bombs and never again declare a Jihad or be determined to have a world ruled by Islamic law. Without an America Jews and Muslims would embrace, forgive and forget; socialist South American tyrants would embrace North American Capitalists, Iran and North Korea would abandon their nukes, China and Cuba would stop abusing human rights, tribal Africa would stop the genocide, and Russia would stop being such a dreadful, bullying bore. Without reservations Extreme Liberalism trust that with the absence of an evil empire known as America the world could finally be a Utopia.

Likewise, if not for America, everyone's needs would be provided for so crime would no longer exist and cocaine, pot, meth, and even The Big H would all be legal and absolutely harmless. Without an America there would be no villains or criminals, as these lawbreakers are now just misunderstood victims of America's corrupt, prejudiced society. If not for America the heinous practice of capital punishment upon ruthless murderers would become taboo so only these killers' hapless victims, along with the unborn innocents or the 'almost' aborted infants, would have to die. If not for America promiscuity would be a virtue and same sex marriage would be the norm. If not for America racism would cease to exist. (The Extreme Liberalism definition of racism is, after all, an American White male's one-way street as there is no such thing as a minority bigot. Nor in their narrow mindset has any American White male ascended to any higher plane of intellect, morality or sensitivity towards human suffering since those held by plantation owners in the 1700's. They strictly follow the Howard Zinn manifesto of the evil white American race. Accordingly Extreme Liberalists hold that the 233-years young America invented the centuries old, ancient abomination of slavery and they hold the belief that America is the only place that this sin was ever really practiced. They also ignore the fact that this evil institution still exists today in other nations and that it is propagated in those regions by non-whites.)

The dogma continues that if not for America wildlife would flourish to run rampant in the streets so that no species would ever again be endangered. If not for America rain forests would thrive and rivers and lakes would be pure. If not for 'old you know who,' the fish in the seas would multiply free of mercury, the sky would be forever blue, filled with bird and fowl, and the sea levels would never rise. If not for the US of A volcanic eruptions, droughts, famine, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes and tornadoes would dissipate to become nothing more than old tall tales. Likewise blizzards would only be a treat you can buy at a Dairy Queen.

If not for you and I, America, the Earth would not be heating up and would stay eternally temperate. Liberal Extremists believe this even though there is not a scientist alive who can honestly calculate what the Earth's average temperature should be and despite the growing, universal proof in the scientific community that the Earth has actually been cooling off for the last few decades. Everyone also seems to forget that in the 1980's we were being warned that the Earth was heading into the next Ice Age.

In believing all of these anti-American tenets, why are we surprised that the Extreme Liberalists' Messiah now jets around the world apologizing for all of America's arrogance and misdeeds?

In hijacking the environmental movement these Extreme Liberalists have reached new levels of hypocrisy and deceit. With the Global Warming scare they have concocted a far reaching, worldwide money grabbing scam that makes Madoff's Ponzi scheme nothing more than petty larceny being committed in a small closet. Billions of dollars have already been spent on this unproven hypothesis. Billions more are now continuing to be spent 'to save our planet', and no matter what your political leanings are it is all at our combined expense.

For almost forty years we have been told that drilling for oil off of our shorelines would harm our environment. Yet for years foreign countries have been doing just that! We have been forbidden to explore or to drill in our own country with the excuse that it would take ten years for this 'new' oil to make an impact, yet they have been using this lame excuse for forty years! This extreme liberal movement in our own government is denying us the further development of coal and nuclear energy and in building more oil refineries, while refusing to drill in our own backyard, yet they insist that WE must reduce our dependence on foreign oil! If nuclear energy plants are so unstable and a threat to our environment, why does our government still allow these plants to operate? Wouldn't newer nuclear power plants be less a threat than those that were built years ago?

Now they want to sell us 'carbon footprints' and hit us with a 'cap and trade' tax because we are still messing up the atmosphere and warming the earth with our wasteful emissions and needless misuse of energy?

They insist that WE must make sacrifices by using less energy yet they are the worst of the lot in wasting such energy. The home residence of super-hypocrite Al Gore uses more energy in one month than the average American family home uses in a year! In fact it would be safe to say that most of these wealthy, Liberal catastrophic gurus use more energy in a month on their home's landscaping lights and private security systems than the average Joe uses to keep his family comfortably warm or cool.

They tell us that we must limit driving our cars. To walk, bicycle or take public transportation to work. Then their Messiah jets off to NYC on Air Force One with the Mrs. to take in dinner and a show! When did any of us ever have a date that left a 'carbon footprint' like that one? None of them use public transportation, not even first class airfare. Instead they cram a dozen Congressmen into a two hundred seat private jet to fly to Ted Kennedy's birthday party on the taxpayers' dime, then fly back. When the average American goes for a ride in their car, unlike those who are telling us to walk, we pay for our own travel expenses.

One of the reasons cars sold in America get such low gas mileage is the federally mandated emission standards, which were forced on the automakers. These mandatory regulations on emissions not only cut the fuel efficiency but also increased the price of the cars, which of course was passed on to the buyer. Along with the emission standards it has been the policy of the government to impose safety standards on all of the cars sold in America. These added safety costs were also passed onto the buyers.

Now after years of these extra costs from emission and safety standards costing us billions of dollars, in order to further cut down on emissions and the use of gasoline this new Liberal Extremists' government sets yet again new emission and mileage standards and throws our safety out the window. After years of adding costly safety features to our automobiles, and telling us that for our own safety we must wear seat belts or they fine us 200 bucks these publicly concerned Liberals now want us to drive smaller, lighter cars that are basically mopeds with doors. We are told to do this so that America can cut oil consumption, minimize our dependence on foreign oil and for our own good and that of the planet. Meanwhile they will be riding around in bulletproof, reinforced limos that weigh more than a Sherman tank.

The most dangerous thing that the average American will ever do is to drive an automobile. As it now stands only eleven cars will meet the new Obama mandates. None of these are larger than a mid-sized sedan. In the auto safety industry it is commonly known that the more car you have sticking out in front of you when you crash, the better chance you have of surviving that crash. In the new Obamamobiles there's nothing in front of you but the windshield. That seat belt was meant to stop the driver from crashing into the dash or windshield. Now in these lighter and shorter cars the dash and windshield will be crashing into you. Those costly airbags aren't going to save you either.

The National Highway Traffic Administration estimates that for every reduction of one hundred pounds to the weight of these cars will result in another 715 traffic deaths per year! These new Obamamobiles are going to be reduced on an average of several hundred pounds. It is estimated that once these cars are in use for three years that the Obamamobiles will result in the death on our highways of more Americans than we have lost in the seven plus years of fighting the war in Iraq! Only the highway deaths will include women and children, of all ages. Now tell me again how our government really cares about our citizens.

Furthermore, when these new cars use less gas, anyone who does not realize that OPEC and the oil companies are going to raise the price of oil to adjust for lost profits is only fooling themselves. We also need to remember that this Liberal Extremist administration is already looking at increasing gas taxes at the pumps. With the purchase price of the cars increasing on an average of $1300.00 per car, initially anyway, and gas prices certain to rise through tax increases and profit adjustments to levels we have never before seen in this country, it will end up costing the average driver more per mile to operate their new mini-vehicle than it did before Obama's new mandates. That my friends you can take to the bank.

So is it any wonder that Obama unconstitutionally fired the head of GM? Is it any wonder why Obama unconstitutionally handed GM billions in bailout funds and then unconstitutionally forced them into bankruptcy? Is it any wonder now why Obama unconstitutionally took over a private industry? The Liberal Extremists now control the American auto industry and Congress. By controlling Congress they can now set their own auto industry standards and wages. And all they ask of us is to foot the bill and die at a higher rate on our highways while they, labor unions, OPEC, and Big Oil rake in the cash. By the way, Obama is about to do more for Big Oil than who the Liberals called Big Oil Bush ever thought of doing, so where is the criticism and outrage from the Liberals and their lapdog media?

So now I'm asking all of you, are you ready? Are you ready to sacrifice yourselves and your families on the Global Warming sacrificial alter of America's highways to deepen the pockets of these hypocrites? Are you ready to bet your life and roll the dice in your gas saving Obamamobiles so that these conmen can continue their Global Warming scam?

Oh that's right, you'll never have a fatal auto accident because 'it' always happens to the other guy. Well guess what, Obama and his Liberal Extremists just gave the green light to increase the chances of all of us becoming that other guy.

God Bless America

Semper Fi,
Mike
