Democrats agree (mostly): #ActOnClimate or children will die

http://twitter.com/#!/vickmichele/status/473457276020199425

President “Under my plan electricity rates will necessarily skyrocket” Obama announced his new “Clean Power Plant Standards” today, complete with graphics featuring faceless “Julia” type characters.

The Democrats began a full court press under the #ActOnClimate hashtag but for the most part they’re steering clear of climate alarmism because voters don’t really care about it. Instead the word has come down to convince people that children will die unless we adopt the standards put forth by President Obama.

So, in short, you are to believe that the people who just implemented a law that canceled millions of people’s health insurance are preparing to savage the coal industry in order to protect children with athsma.

It all goes to show that being a left wing Democrat requires one to be immune from embarrassment.

FACT: When Chris Van Hollen begins a statement with “FACT:” he’s almost certainly just making stuff up.

FACT: Chris Van Hollen has more EPA employees and contractors voting in his district than the vast majority of Congress.

“Carbon pollution” will probably be taking the place of  “greenhouse gas emissions” from here on out. (See also “global warming” –> “climate change” –> “climate disruption.”)

There are multiple reports of a security incident at the White House:

There isn’t much information out yet, but the incident looks to be over. From the AP:

The Secret Service says a man has been arrested for trying to unlawfully enter the White House, less than 24 hours after a fence-jumper made it all the way into the building.

Secret Service spokesman Ed Donovan says a man showed up at one of the White House gates on foot, then showed up in his a car at another gate and pulled into the vehicle screening area. He refused to leave and was arrested for unlawful entry.

We’ll update this post if necessary with any new information.

‘We got this guys’: Wow, don’t you feel better after WH’s Ebola presser? [photos]

http://twitter.com/#!/markknoller/status/518142177420259328

This afternoon, officials held a press conference on Ebola at the White House. It was about as reassuring as you’d expect from any White House presser. Which is to say, not really very reassuring at all:

He must be referring to that “robust government-sponsored health care system” ThinkProgress was so excited about.

Right now, officials say screening for Ebola patients most effective in the source countries in West Africa, than on arrival in US.

Fauci says US has "well-established" facilities to handle and respond to cases of Ebola. "Our structure would preclude an outbreak."

Monaco tells @MajorCBS that screening air travelers in West Africa are effective in stopping Ebola passengers from leaving.

— Mark Knoller (@markknoller) October 3, 2014

Fauci goes even further: says US health care system “would make it extraordinarily unlikely that we would have an outbreak" in the US.

— Mark Knoller (@markknoller) October 3, 2014

So, who feels better now?

The US has the ability to contain Ebola, but can't build a website that doesn't crash. Gotcha.

— Matthew (@Matthops82) October 3, 2014

Sorry if I don't have faith in the govt to contain ebola. Maybe the pessimism stems from how much they screw everything else up. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

— Matthew (@Matthops82) October 3, 2014

ISIS is a JV squad. You can keep your plan if you like it. Detroit is thriving. We should totes believe that govt has ebola under control.

MSNBC’s Chris Hayes envisions ‘enormous’ O-care enrollment today

http://twitter.com/#!/SgtTim911/status/415216899178246144

Perhaps MSNBC’s Chris Hayes’ dream will come true, provided the number of people deemed “enrolled” are counted using the ever-evolving White House “success metrics” system(s):

http://twitter.com/#!/chrislhayes/status/415211621565206528

How characteristically optimistic. Good cheerleader! However, the White House isn’t known for being particularly forthcoming with their disclosure of actual enrollment numbers.

Yes, an additional day has been added to the deadline to accommodate the enormity.

President Obama didn’t have any trouble signing up whatsoever, but mostly because he didn’t use the website and had others enroll for him.
