Obama Triggers Blackouts, Summons Cthulu

Record cold temperatures and harsh blizzards have pushed some cities in Texas to institute rolling blackouts in order to preserve energy. 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 story to be seen
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. Barack Obama was a senator from Illinois. In the clip on Info-wars, he is in these past days. Obama's belief on the proposed cap and trade legislation on carbon emissions was asked about, while also asking how the coal sector would be influenced as greenhouses gases comes from there. Then Senator Obama answers the question in what Jones calls the Obama administration's industrial warfare on the U.S. The full video can be watched on YouTube as this is taken out of context in the short clip:
"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 did not 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 to the sky. The companies might instead re-purpose and store them. The idea is to motivate change, not attack a sector that provides several thousands of United States jobs.
Misconceptions to discuss
You will find no blackouts triggered by the Obama administration while the cap and trade system didn't occur. Why does Jones think Obama has power since the administration has already been criticized for not being able to regulate all the power corporations?
The lack of successful environmental legislation has led to virtually unchecked industrial carbon emissions. A significant sampling of the scientific community believes this has brought on real climate change, which includes the severe Midwestern blizzard. The Arctic is being warmed by all these gases. That means colder and snowier winters are to be anticipated for a while.
