The Ice Man Cometh

Somewhere in the murky mists of a future, which is fast becoming the present, Obama the Ice Man, Cometh. Polar bears will no longer be stranded on ice floes because the American government is sending the U.S. Coast Guard to the rescue in their very own icebreakers
In fighting off Russia, which planted its flag under the Arctic sea bed back in 2007, the Obama administration is set to remove 3,000 troops from Alaska but will be building ice breakers ready to hit the water in 2020. Take that, Vladimir Putin, if the kind of global warming/climate change that Obama’ and his new sidekick, Pope Francis, are selling, doesn’t take you out first. So far, the U.S. only has two functioning icebreakers. Russia has 41, with plans to build 11 more. Obama on Tuesday, while highlighting the effect of climate change, announced he will speed up acquisition of these coveted ships though they won't be ready for at least another five years. “Last March, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a snap, full combat military exercise in Russia's Arctic north to mark the anniversary of his annexation of Crimea -- with 40,000 Russian troops, dozens of warships and submarines.” (FoxNews Sept. 1, 2015)
Russia has re-established Soviet-era military bases across the Arctic and begun building a string of search-and-rescue stations along its Arctic shores. In April, Russia's economic minister explained the importance.

"For us, the Arctic is mineral resources, transportation, and one also should not forget about fish and sea products, and bio-resources. The potential here is enormous," Alexey Ulyukaev said. As a cheeky two-sons Marine Mom asked Canada Free Press this morning: “What good are ice breakers if global warming, as Obama claims, is going to kill us all anyway.?” Good question, Marine Mom, if only Obama was the type to answer intelligent questions. Why did Obama wait eight years to challenge Russia’s stake in the Arctic? Who knows when he waited a century to rename Alaska’s tallest mountain peak into a name more acceptable to the sanctimonious politically correct? Sarah Palin could only see Russia from her house. Obama fails to see it when he’s sitting right on top of it with dreams of sending ice breakers in to keep Russia from expanding its resources with all that’s waiting for anyone’s plunder right there under the ice. Talking about fighting Russia, China, and ISIS is what Obama does best. But is guaranteed he will get no help from the masses, which he loudly proclaims will be wiped out with the monster now set on the loose called global warming. “President Obama – who graduated Columbia University with a degree in political science – became an environmental and ecological expert Monday night in time to decry America’s contributions to global warming and the alleged melting of Arctic ice caps at this year’s GLACIER Conference, predicting a dire future for humanity. (MRCTV, Sept. 1, 2015)
“During the GLACIER event, which stands for Global Leadership in the Arctic: Cooperation, Innovation, Engagement and Resilience, Obama blamed the recent rash of wildfires sweeping parts of Washington State on global warming, insisting that “climate is changing faster than our efforts to address it.” “Overall, the speech painted a fairly doom-and-gloom outlook for America and the rest of the world. So if you’re a Doomsday Prepper, here are a few excerpts from the president's speech explaining the climate-related disasters heading to a town near you: “Your house might slide off into the ocean… “Reduced sea levels leaves villages unprotected from floods and storm surges. Some are in imminent danger; some will have to relocate entirely. “…or it might be engulfed in flames. “Alaska’s fire season is now more than a month longer than it was in 1950. At one point this summer, more than 300 wildfires were burning at once. Southeast of here, in our Pacific Northwest, even the rain forest is on fire…this is a threat to many communities. “And if it doesn’t, it will definitely get sucked into a sinkhole. “Thawing permafrost destabilizes the earth on which 100,000 Alaskans live, threatening homes, damaging transportation and energy infrastructure, which could cost billions of dollars to fix. “Your city will either look like Atlantis or something out of the zombie apocalypse.  ...we will condemn our children to a planet beyond their capacity to repair:  Submerged countries.  Abandoned cities. “You might run out of fresh salmon en croûte. “Warmer, more acidic oceans and rivers, and the migration of entire species, threatens the livelihoods of indigenous peoples, and local economies dependent on fishing and tourism. “Or just food, in general. “Climate change is already disrupting our agriculture and ecosystems. “You may simultaneously die of thirst and drown, all at the same time. Entire nations will find themselves under severe, severe problems. More drought; more floods; rising sea level… “You might have to begin training for the Hunger Games. …more refugees; more scarcity; more conflict. “And if the famine, flood, fire and fighting doesn’t get you, the fumes definitely will. “Consider, as well, that many of the fires burning today are actually burning through the permafrost in the Arctic.  So this permafrost stores massive amounts of carbon.  When the permafrost is no longer permanent, when it thaws or burns, these gases are released into our atmosphere over time, and that could mean that the Arctic may become a new source of emissions that further accelerates global warming. “After all, we’re running out of time. 
“On this issue, of all issues, there is such a thing as being too late. That moment is almost upon us.”
Global Warming, whose only harm when it started out was melting your ice cream cone, is now on a path guaranteed to wipe out humanity. And for all you deniers out there waiting on imminent arrest if you don’t believe Obama, the Pope is coming to Congress and to the U.N. this month to swear to its authenticity on the Bible of the Creator.
