To help Obama not look like such a fascist jerk (though, it didn’t help). Here’s the fuller quote from Drudge:

OBAMA: ‘We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times… and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK’…

Here’s the AFP quote:

“We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK,” Obama said.
“That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen,” he added.

What the heck are you going to do, ration our food? Outlaw SUVs? Go ahead and try it, I doubt you last more than one term if you do.
I don’t care what the rest of the countries think. Heck! Look at how much food they throw out in and they are going to say anything about our food consumption? Look at the kinds of cars they drive in Saudi Arabia and they are going to talk about our SUVs?
Here’s he’s new campaign slogan: Hope, Change and Starvation. Maybe then the world will love us. We feel your pain and want to share it.
Thus ends the Obama-free zone 🙂 I come back with a rant! And I didn’t even go looking for the story, it jumped out at me yesterday and made me see red. This is my calm reflective rant 🙂
