Mr. Obama is a guy who has a massive, giant “carbon footprint”, estimated several years ago to be 41000 metric tons. The average American’s footprint was rated at 19mt, and I doubt that Obama’s has actually gone down. This is a guy who will take a cross-country trip to attend a brief official event before jumping into multiple fundraisers/campaign speeches on a constant basis, with all the planes, helicopters, automobiles, and everything else that is required. But, you know….

(Daily Caller) In a continuation of the softball White House media strategy that saw the president interviewed by “YouTube Stars” like the Fruit Loops bathing GloZell, Barack Obama sat down with Vox media, the progressive activist blog, to discuss the issues of the day.

In the course of that discussion, the site’s executive editor asked the president if the media “overstates the sort of level of alarm people should have about terrorism and this kind of chaos as opposed to a longer-term problem like climate change and epidemic disease?”

Obama quickly agreed, saying the media lives by the mantra, “If it bleeds, it leads.”

In all fairness, Vox guided Obama to the answer, but we shouldn’t be surprised by it, as Obama bows down to the the notion of Man-created Hotcoldwetdry. And, like the vast majority of Warmists, refuses to practice what he preaches. And, like most of the big shots in the Warmist cult, he increases his carbon footprint. And, while Warmists are blaming all the snowstorms in the Northeast on global warming/climate change, the RoP has been busy (via The Religion Of Peace)

• 2015.02.09 (Kadhimiyah, Iraq) – A Sunni suicide bomber takes out eighteen innocents near a Shia shrine.
• 2015.02.09 (Mogadishu, Somalia) – A member of parliament is assassinated by a group fighting for Islamic law.
• 2015.02.08 (Diffa, Niger) – A Shahid suicide bomber detonates at a pepper market, killing five patrons.
• 2015.02.07 (Baghdad, Iraq) – A brutal suicide bombing at a packed restaurant snuffs out the lives of twenty-two innocents.

Obama’s schtick was also about positioning terrorism as just news sensationalism

Climate change is something that happens, and always has. Yes, Mankind plays a small part in it, mostly from agriculture and landfills, as well as land use. Not too mention falsifying data. Islamic radicalism is a threat to 1st World societies, and it still shocks me that Liberals refuse to acknowledge the threat, since the hardcore Muslims, called “Islamists” to distinguish them from the so-called moderate Muslims, pretty much stand against everything Liberals believe in, and are competing for the same world-wide dominance as are Progressives.

BTW, Politico trashed the Vox interview with Obama and the way it was put together, noting that “I’ve seen subtler Scientology recruitment films.”
