Retrofitting for Energy Efficiency and New Jobs

[showem88]

Nice video! I like what you are doing here, keep it coming!

[CRSOLARoCOM]

I can help you all figure out a clean Energy path...Idea, why not cut in a tesla wire winding into all roads with large concrete saws so the Tesla car and many others like it can Receive the power when moving and replace the Oil with solar power or other Renewable faster, I bet we can add Electric motors and Receivers to many current models and still use some gas/oil to phase out plus on CR roads we can have smaller battery systems.. houses need ventilation also keep that in Mind

[DrewsAreGood]

All respect to President Obama. But has he heard of Jevons Paradox?

[wowamonn]

Good job Mr President keep up the fight.

[memama2]

.....let's all listen to YouTube video: ............. Michael Savage - Obama is a Naked Marxist - December 17 2009

[groundhog2008]

Wow, we have a wonderful President!!!! Dont you realize, this great man is singlehandedly fixing this republican ravaged economy, and building it up for the future!! He is becoming much more than most of us ever expected!! The greatest President this country has ever had!!

[ihaveabigtv]

id say...most of the people hate him:S the main reason is because his "black", which i think is the most rediculous reason to hate a person

the other reason is cuz he is not doing any good progress..but after watching this video...i think he is an excellent president

people just need to grow up

[NJRocks281]

Baaa Baaa...you sound like a sheep

[Mplay1983]

The President has intelligent conversation only to receive the most ignorant comments. Sad. Its funny though. Thats how you know somebody is intimidated by intelligence. They instantly go negative and off topic like the comments before me.

[MrSuperpunch019]

He's black.

[dragonzord23]

so your saying any one that talks bad about obama is dum

[memama2]

@Mplay1983 = here is another "drone" little dunce "Mplay"....... who I am sure voted for this egoic BLOW-HARD!..... the guy lied during his whole SHAM-pain and took Unabomber money to start his Senate Bid. He was shipped from Hawaii to the Jarrets to be the next socialist puppet! And the evidence of this evil is now being forced onto The Broken Backs Of Hard Working Americans = as Obama CRAP CARE!....... that is the sheer stupidity of anyone admitting they voted in this lying leftist loon!

[peacechild61]

the new "energy efficient "light bulbs the climate change chicken littles have foisted on us all last 4 five minutes and have the highly toxic MERCURY in them..great one! sick of all this bullshit! why did you go to Copenhagen, Mr President? that was dishonest of you since 30,000 scientists you choose to ignore say the earth has actually COOLED these last 8 years, and now we know MANMADE CLIMATECHANGE is a huge HOAX..,Climategate emails proving the figures are fake! forget about them , did you?

[01synergist]

Keep us at the facts!

The poles are melting also the glaciers, as well as worldwide. The permafrost in the boreal zone dissolves. In addition, the precipitation in continental regions of Asia are declining. If the water temperature has sunk in the Pacific, which lies rather in the Circumpolar currently, circumnavigated the Antarctic and dissolves large quantities of deep-ice.

[01synergist]

@peacechild61

And the deforestation of large areas of forest every year and species extinction makes you not worry? Forests are indispensable because they buffer the climate!

[maskedphrogg]

Trees soak up all that "poisonous" CO2. How good for us can they be?

#sarcasm mode=off

1) that it is warmer is some locations does not offset that it is cooler in others, apparently more places than it is warmer.

2) the discussion is specifically climate, and the hoaxes used to portray a state of emergency. Deforestation has not, nor is it likely to be, used to debunk faux climate change theory.

You should take your own advice and stick to facts.

[01synergist]

@maskedphrogg - They deny what is already visible, and argue the opposite, without providing evidence. You look back and feel using the methods of the past to shape the future.

Your conservative opinions create confusion and do not contribute solutions.

The survival principle is maintaining of natural resources through sustainability.

But if we do not change that, will all lose everything.

[maskedphrogg]

Your statements make little sense w/o accepting a base assumption of anthropogenic genesis of climate change. That is a nonsensical theory with scant evidence to support it. Neither does it explain the vast changes in climate that we have ample evidence of having occurred in the past. CO2 is good for trees by the way. Why would you want to limit it's emission when the very organisms that you insist on conserving thrive in it? That is the agenda you are supporting here. Welcome to COP15

[memama2]

@01synergist = "conservative opinions" are the only REAL SOLUTIONS that will not bring about economic RUIN to our economy! Obama is an ACORN NUT riding a SKITZO horse back into the barn! He SET ON FIRE!.......... the guy is a dunce and we should be drilling every square foot of America that has OIL and chopping down forests to put people to work! BUT the clean green crowd just likes for us to BURN 1 MILLION acres a year! CLEAR CUTS = stop Wild Fires and they REGROW! DIM dunces lie like BAAMA

[01synergist]

@memama2

Your Climate - deniers make all the same error. You forget in your arias for the oil that a growing world population increasingly requesting more oil. Even per capita consumption rises. Most sources have exceeded their Pike - because the oil flow rate decreases every year. In five to ten years will pass very many sources.

Why do you want to leave your kids any more oil left? They must better deal with it. Also, I have said nothing against sustainable forestry.

[memama2]

synergist = get out of other people's BID-NESS! If you and the idiots stifiling cheap Oil - Coal - Natural Gas prices with your new age new world order egoic rules would get on yer bike and SHUT UP and ride that fithy bus with gangsters on it and SHUT UP and allow all others the freeedom to DRILL DRILL DIG DIG and you go create a gerbil wheel you ~~run on for your one light bulb? Just do it! Let other companys be allowed to begin a give us CHEAP FUEL NOW! Grow up - get a life let others CREATE

[01synergist]

@memama2

Hey wake up, this is not a pissing contest Come on down from your ego weakness Your language and spelling is stupid boyish - How old are you - You can also talk normally otherwise? maybe you have bulimia nervosa ~ we leave that dear...

mit dir muss man nur TACHEles reden ;))

[memama2]

@01synergist = its all OK your Greeness! Dread lord of earth HEAT yer day is = over

[MrSuperpunch019]

Don't let the conspiracy theorist fool you.

[Henroidt]

Hey look, there are products all around Obama. I guess he is for advertising / capitalism afterall.

Maybe all the "SOCIALISM BAD" types can shut the hell up about it!

[FredMcWoozy]

US Government is corrupt. Make the appropriate decisions to prepare your family. Massive arrest and coup coming against Govt Officials, Labor Union Execs, Bankers and Corporate Leaders.. Beware of Obama's race war. Do not support nazism or communism. Track all corrupt govt officials while you still can. If they support communism/marxism you/they are an enemy of the state. Prepare yourself and your family to face evil. Stand with God Jesus Christ, the devil of evil is trying to rise.

[Henroidt]

Hey, World War 2 and the Cold War have been over for a while now. You can relax.

[shooter348]

More blithering from the village idiot. Air up your tires and caulk your doors shut and you'll be able to afford my government takeover of healthcare. Great, thanks barry you're the messiah.

[iterviator]

look who's blithering

[snow53713]

What a idiot! I have insulation I didnt know it was sexy U turd ass

[RaySquirrel]

I wonder if the president has ever heard of the Jevon's paradox.

[TrollBuster9090]

No, but only because other perfectly good paradoxes have yet to be misused and abused in the political disinformation wars to the point of being meaningless. They haven't run the Gambler's Fallacy, the Prisoner's Dilemma, the Tragedy of the Commons and the Broken Window Fallacy into the ground yet, but when they do I"m sure they'll get around to Jevons Paradox.

[brucencalifornia]

President Obama is the best...I like the marketable job skills that can be used...anywhere!!!!!!!

Great Honk....See you at the check-out

P.S. tell Gibbs aisle 8a,,,for instant leak hold.....if the leak is caused by a rat.......aisle 86....ask for help!!!

[moneymakerisawonderf]

Great President

[canadiceconstruction]

Right On Mr. President, There are three integral parts of our nations quest for energy independence they are: (1) Energy conservation (2) The electrification of the automobile through means of solar and wind energy. (3) And the mind set of our population. Oil is not an endless resource! Use it wisely and only where necessary!

Richard Gammell

Canadice Construction Corp.

P.S. Bo's Big Green Dog House is ready for delivery!!!

[FromDimmuLand]

If the oil gets created by the Earth and not Dinosaurs ( HA HA HA HA ) it is endless, right ?!

Yea I know, I must read the Science daily, there the FACTS are. (Emails coming, I know it ) ..Hehehehe.. More Merury in to the homes.. Gogogogo !!!

[1222123412]

love u obama!

[fansntt]

LOL VP want something to prevent leaks... Watch-out The daily show :)

[maskedphrogg]

Hunh?

When I watched I thought he said the Press Secretary, Gibbs, wants something to stop leaks.

It was a good line. Went right over the audience's head.

That was nearly as funny as the line itself.

[fansntt]

yup you right.. was his press secretary. I am not sure why I thought it was the VP... funny anyways

[maskedphrogg]

So call me pedantic.

Sorry to pick on your post in particular.

It was funny and enlightening to see the audience at a loss for understanding.

[MegF142857]

President Jimmy Carter did this back in the 1980s with tax credits to home owners to do insulation.

[1tofallen]

@MegF142857 The only part of the 1980s that Carter was president was 1980.

[MegF142857]

@1tofallen I'm just saying... this is NOTHING new.

President Carter and Congress while he was prez got the tax credits for insulation passed. We used it in 1984.

[vulacn407]

Green the new color of socialism (evidently the color red is out).

[lockdown260]

What's the difference between a commonwealth and a state? I noticed Obama corrected himself when mentioning Virginia.

[pgunn01]

Virginia's long formal name is "The Commonwealth of Virginia", I think. A few states have names like that.

[todnyc]

Home Depot is awesome! I love America!

[anhdillion]

Great speech but my heart was pounding during his speech ... maybe I'm too excited for his retrofitting new jobs .... lol.

[lildwayne21]

Kinda of a low quality for a white house video

[Firebirrd85]

Whitehouse used to post stuff in HD the quality on this looks like shi*

[thadaran]

i dont live in the United states, but i know a nice few people who live there. so i like to know whats going on there, seems like your doing a great job Obama, looks like the US is going to be out of ressesion and be better for the environment soon

[maskedphrogg]

Got that right.

Out of recession and deep in depression.

It ain't over til the dollar has backing.

Gee, big surprise. Another foreign fool who imagines one can counterfeit the way to wealth.

[americafan27]

Obama you are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeahh

IM FROM MEXICO BUT I BUT FOR OBAMA FOR EVER JE JE

for me his the best president x D

[shoxite]

Look I absoloutley love you Obama. You are a great person. BUT, You seem you dont want the PUBLIC OPTION you haven't been bringing this issue up. Also, you shouldn't be asking the bankers anything! You should be ordering them! Your the president! This is not the change we asked for.

[MrTabby5000]

@shoxite

LOL,he pulled one over on you,LOL.

[ochairball]

Look, the public option is over. We have three branches of Govt. Obama can't just order a public option and besides, he just wanted something that would work. Too bad everyone got all bent up around PO and neglected the rest of healthcare. Anyway, this is it. Last chance to pass h/c. There are people who really need it. There's always the opp to make it better.

[tyu3456]

it's funny because they didn't get the obvious joke

[ochairball]

The joke's on you because healthcare will pass and people such as yourself will probably benefit in one way or other.

[tyu3456]

wtf lol how did I imply in any way that I'm against healthcare reform? I was simply pointing out something that was funny

[tyu3456]

this video isn't even about healthcare lol

[ochairball]

I still have no idea what you're talking about. You have to be concise and clear posting comments or else people can draw all sorts of conclusions.

[tyu3456]

Did you watch the video? I'm talking about the place where obama says a joke about the press secretary wanting to stop leaks and no one laughs at first, even obama thinks it's funny. happy now?

[dbzlotrfan]

I got it when he first said it. It's nice to have a president that can be serious but also silly @ times.

[ochairball]

Very happy. Thanks for your clarity :-)

[spawnofwheezedog]

What happened to your video quality, White House?!

[MrTabby5000]

@spawnofwheezedog

It may be an issue with older computers.

[guudgidga]

Wow, instead of obsessing over first how about actually WATCHING what obama has to say -_-
