Newsmax: Obama Frets Over Global Warming, Ignores Terror

No, in the upside-down world of Obama’s America, he was in New York talking about what he thought was the greatest threat to Americans and to future generations. “We understand the gravity of the climate threat,” Obama said.

The Associated Press: EPA moves to regulate smokestack greenhouse gases
