As if being associated with former Weatherman Bill Ayers, the unapologetic terrorist, wasn't enough for President Obama, he has now concluded that he has the ability to control the weather. He and other leaders at the G-8 have decided to become the world's most inefficient thermostat, agreeing to try to keep global temperatures from rising over 2 degrees. I'm not sure I have the words to describe the idiocy involved here. They further committed to a goal of a 80% reduction in carbon emissions by 2050. So get used to not exhaling anymore, which should be easier since you won't be working and, as a result, not eating, unless you are a government employee. Never mind that global warming is, at best, questionable science, never mind that China, India and other industrialized nations aren't part of this moronic commitment, what exactly are we trying to do to business? What is this loathing of corporations and employment that the G-8 has? We are setting ourselves up to be incapable of competing in the world economy. If the President is able to get this goal pushed into a law somehow, we won't have to worry about what he does at the G-8 anymore, we won't qualify to be in it.
