President Obama or maybe a surrogate wrote a letter to the editor and it appeared in today's Las Vegas Sun.
From Obama's letter:
On Tuesday, I unveiled a new national plan to confront climate change. It’s a plan that will reduce carbon pollution to prevent the worst effects of climate change, prepare our country for the effects we can’t stop, and lead the world in combating the growing threat of a changing climate.
Many Americans who already feel the effects of climate change don’t have time to deny it — they’re busy dealing with it. Firefighters are braving longer wildfire seasons. Farmers are seeing crops wilt one year, and wash away the next. Western families are worried about water that’s drying up. And while we know no single weather event is caused solely by climate change, we also know that in an increasingly warmer world, all weather events are affected by it.

Let's start with this: "Firefighters are braving longer wildfire seasons". First, the fires are mostly located in isolate areas, with the exception of Colorado Springs in the past few years. Most of the fires are burning dead wood from beetles or in areas that haven't been burned or many years and these areas built up timber and grasses that should have been burned a long time ago. This is a totally false argument.
Next: "Farmers are seeing crops wilt one year and washed away the next". That's again in only a few very areas of the country and guess what, it has been happening for decades and it's nature.
"Western families are worried about water that's drying up". There are a lot of areas in the West that are desert areas, like most of Nevada. Yes, some areas have had droughts but in reality, if we were not giving Mexico so much water, we would be doing ok. The West is almost dry but we still survive. Why is that? Because the problem is not as bad as the so called "experts" say it is.
An "warmer increasing world"?
Actually, temperatures have remained steady or have dropped. This weekend, in Las Vegas, it is very hot, but in reality, it has been a fairly cool year. All the doomsayers say the temperature will raise, icebergs and polar caps will melt and in reality, it just aint happening.
Of course Obama is blaming the United States, typical liberalism, but what about China, India, Russia and other countries that pollute far more than us, per capita?
So, once again, is Obama that stupid or he has a liberal surrogate write this editorial or is he just pretending?
