Obama triggers blackouts, states Jones

Record cold conditions and harsh blizzards have pushed some towns in TX to institute rolling blackouts as a way to preserve power. However according to controversial talk-show host Alex Jones, this ain’t just TX toast; this comes completely from the White House. According to Jones, Obama triggers blackouts with his massive, tyrannical power: of lights, sector, the Internet (with his new kill switch) and the space-time continuum.

The real Obama account to appear

There is an "Obama activates blackouts" freak out that is currently going around. Death + Taxes explained, though, that it’s based off of a 12 second video clip. Obama is in a clip on Info-wars which is from his days as a senator of Illinois. The interviewer asks for Obama’s stance on proposed cap and trade legislation on carbon emissions and the way it would impact the coal sector, a known producer of greenhouse gases. In what Jones has dubbed the Obama administration’s industrial warfare against the United States, then Sen. Obama says the following, which is taken out of context from the rest of the 2008 conversation (the full video is accessible on YouTube):

"So, if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can, but it will bankrupt them because they’re going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s being emitted."

After watching the full version of the interview, it’s clear that Sen. Obama didn’t think the U.S. could suddenly function without coal power. He really was just talking about how the cap and trade might help coal power emissions stop simply putting carbon emission into the sky. The businesses might instead re-purpose and store them. The idea is to motivate change, not attack a sector that provides many thousands of U.S. careers.

The facts on other things also

The truth is that not only is there no cap and trade system, but President Obama’s administration doesn’t trigger blackouts. Why does Alex Jones think Obama has power since the administration has already been criticized for not being able to regulate all the energy corporations?

The lack of effective environmental legislation has led to virtually unchecked industrial carbon emissions. Climate change, which includes the recent blizzard that devastated several, is being brought on by this, according to some of the scientific community. The Arctic is being warmed by all these gases. That means colder and snowier winters are to be expected for a while.
