Friday Funny – "gone in an instant" – climate edition

At 1200PM EST today, Donald J. Trump took the oath of office and was sworn in as the 45th President of the United States. At that same instant, the domain whitehouse.gov was switched, and in an instant, the climate change page which used to be front and center on the main whitehouse.gov web page, is no more. This side by side documents the change:

wh-climate-before-after

As Trump’s first order of business, he put up a page calling to end the worthless Climate Action Plan and the EPA’s “waters of the United States” draconian policy that turned puddles into protected waters.

You can hear the heads exploding already.

Added: BTW for those that think that the White House climate page was really “deleted” like those worried that climate data will be “deleted”, a new version of the WH website is just part of the normal transition, like changing the drapes and wallpaper and furniture in the White House.  For those that want to see the old WH web page, complete with climate action plan, see the archives: https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/

I, for one, will be happy when we can finally start talking about what Trump is actually doing, instead of all the things people say he will do. Saying things with great conviction cuts no ice with realists as the alarmists have learned – to their chagrin. GK

Me, too. And here we go! 🙂
January 20, 2017 — Executive Order signed by Donald Trump to do the maximum that he can do at this time to stop enforcement of Obamacare:

… exercise all authority and discretion available to them to waive, defer, grant exemptions from, or delay the implementation of any provision or requirement of {Obamacare} that would impose a fiscal burden on any State or a cost, fee, tax, penalty, or regulatory burden on individuals, families, healthcare providers, health insurers, patients, recipients of healthcare services, purchasers of health insurance, or makers of medical devices, products, or medications.

What a long strange trip this has been…
https://youtu.be/SHhrZgojY1Q
…There’s nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-buy
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight
I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
Don’t get fooled again
No, no!
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

Dear Carla,
Very good idea (to pray truth prevails), however, please note: the evidence, so far, clearly points to “the new boss” not being remotely like the “old boss.”
Too much suspicion is not healthy. Let’s see what happens.

And all the media here in Australia can focus on is protests and the lack of Hollywood attendees.

I thought Washington was experiencing some really bad weather yesterday, then I realised it was all the snowflakes falling to the ground 😀

Gone in an instant. Gone with the wind, and frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.

And when we watched that movie we all cheered and cried, “After all those years — FINALLY!” The day Rhett got his brain back.
“Free at last, free at last,
thank God Almighty,
we’re free {of the socialists} at last.”

Still a popular meme, set to a new but salient tune.

In case that is a pro-AGW video, as it appears to be, I’m NOT going to honor it with another view; it would only be more Cult of AGW religious material aimed at keeping the parishioners from coming to their senses and walking out the door.

I am not surprised that this theme would be used by those who would misuse the old Germanic myths and legends, which a very talented philologist and Professor of Anglo Saxon (Mercian) drew from, as well as the Norse edda, to give an “Edwardian” rendering of these had they survived. It is an old theme in the story of Fallen Man. I did not see it as pro-AGW as such, though the theme, as noted, could be misused for such.

I saw it actually more in response to the hypothetical question posed in this thread – “what to do, what to do”. The element I was (perhaps not so clearly) trying to point to was “This is war”. It has been the war of the minds for quite some time now, and the fact that our former Executive has chosen to engage in that battle with his own .org simply points to the fact that the war for the minds will continue unabated. And that some sacrifices will need be made (as in all wars) for victory to be attained.

The climate has changed rapidly since November, at least in the US. Never before have so many snowflakes been seen in cities like SF, NY, Chicago…

Why do they go to the expense of new drapes and furniture? (Well I guess after Bill Clinton…)

All together now, “Na na na na / Na na na na / Hey, hey, hey, Good-bye. (I wonder how many earworms, I might have just created. Sorry.

lol, HF, I could NOT figure out how “Na na na na / Na na na na / Hey, hey, hey, Good-bye” fit into the end of that Journey song…
So, I looked up your lyrics on youtube and said, “Oh.” And quickly stopped it! (heh).
Thanks for the fun. 🙂
