Obama signed a new executive order on Friday that gives him and the federal government unlimited power over all fossil fuels, land, water, air space.
Through the guise of dealing with global warming, the new order can be used to justify any action against you, from preventing you to make changes to your property to any activity that could possibly increase greenhouse gasses.
Executive orders are unconstitutional in the first place by creating laws outside the legislative process.
This is ‘in your face’ totalitarianism!
Through the stroke of the pen, President Obama on Friday used his executive powers to elevate and take control of climate change policies in an attempt to streamline sustainability initiatives – and potentially skirt legislative oversight and push a federal agenda on states.
The executive order establishes a task force of state and local officials to advise the administration on how to respond to severe storms, wildfires, droughts and other potential impacts of climate change. The task force includes governors of seven states — all Democrats — and the Republican governor of Guam, a U.S. territory. Fourteen mayors and two other local leaders also will serve on the task force.
All but three of those appointed are Democrats. The task force will look at federal money spent on roads, bridges, flood control and other projects. It ultimately will recommend how structures can be made more resilient to the effects of climate change, such as rising sea levels and warming temperatures.
“We’re going to need to get prepared. And that’s why this plan will also protect critical sectors of our economy and prepare the United States for the impacts of climate change that we cannot avoid,” President Obama said back in June, when he first launched a Climate Action Plan. “States and cities across the country are already taking it upon themselves to get ready… And we’ll partner with communities seeking help to prepare for droughts and floods, reduce the risk of wildfires, protect the dunes and wetlands that pull double duty as green space and as natural storm barriers.”
The White House added in Friday’s statement that even as the United States acts to curb carbon pollution, officials also need to improve how states and communities respond to extreme weather events like last year’s Superstorm Sandy. Building codes must be updated to address climate impacts and infrastructure needs to be made more resilient.
Critics of the order charge, among other things, that it groups together everything from forest fires to heavy rains as evidence of climate change – despite scientific testimony from both sides of the debate.
Here is an assessment worth checking on this issue:
New Executive Order Gives Obama Nearly Unlimited Power…Or does it?

It is obvious that NOBODY in America is going to stand up and take on the establishment ALONE,simply because NOBODY can fix the problem alone…..but when 100,000,000 people all converge upon DC carrying firearms, and subsequently cleaning out the PERPETRATORS, in the DOJ the executive branch and in the legislative, then and only then will America ever be returned to like it was. We the people can change it but everybody is scared to death to even hiccup. What the hell do you expect when people no longer have the balls to fight for their country. Just as long as they have their DRUGS, alcohol,and porn,they are perfectly happy.
oldsailor,you are right it’s going to take the American people to stand united and not be afraid, obama can only do what we allow him to do..There comes a time when talk doesn’t work..and the People need to be ready..
Soetoro has a TIGER BY THE TAIL(ACA) and he and his goons are afraid what will happen when they let go.
Presidents have been signing Executive Orders like this for years – it’s only now that things are so far out of control we may actually see them put into play. All Executive Orders are on the White House website – do your research – and, could the poster of this thread please give me the actual Executive Order Number that pertains to his claims.
Well, he’ll definitely make the stupidest looking world dictator. Not winning any beauty contests here.

What is the date of this article besides just Friday? This Friday or a Friday last year? I can’t find anything on this except here and snopes saying it’s false. I don’t trust Snopes and I too would like the number of this bill.
