This Just Gets More Ridiculous

The enviro-whackos are laughing up their sleeves. They are giving choruses of “We told you so!”. The confounding part of it is that they have caused the problem. This article which comes from Casey’s Research illustrates a little talked about aspect of the “energy crisis”, that being the shortage of heating oil. Why do we have a shortage? Because the above-mentioned whackos have cut off drilling anywhere there’s oil in the U.S. and refuse to allow it. They are convinced they are doing us a favor by forcing us to get off the oil train. Do you feel like you are being done a favor? Neither do I. Thank your congress-weenie when you see them. Tell them how much you like being ripped off. Then thank them for not spending your money on alternative energy  research and spending it on Chocolate City recovery (all those mobile homes sitting in a vacant lot in the midwest somewhere). Never fear, though. Nancy will save us all. She wants us to drain the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. I wish somebody would drain her.

A Truly Sad Situation

It saddens me to write about this. I fear that this is only a precursor of things that may come to pass. I have been convinced for some time that BHO is a very dangerous individual but it seems that even his supporters are as/more dangerous. I am talking about an article that appeared in THE ASTUTE BLOGGERS about a blog that shut down after threats to the blogger. The blog was talking about the now-determined-to-be-fake birth certificate that was presented that shows BHO to be a citizen by birth. The accusation that is on the table is that he is not a natural citizen and, therefore, ineligible to run for President. Wouldn’t that be a bombshell?

This raises memories of the jack-booted brown shirts in Nazi Germany that would strongarm any resistance to Hitler and force them to submit or shut up. Have we come to this?

Surprise! Surprise! We’re Winning Iraq!

At least that’s the news in the foreign press. Investor’s Business Daily has an article here on the news and their dismay on the lack of reportage in this country. This is such a shame. The American media is totally given over to politics. To banner news such as this would give aid and comfort to the enemy. At least it would be A & C to THEIR enemy, which is George W. Bush and the conservative right in this country. It goes along with their burying of any negative news about the Obamessiah and pushing his name and smug puss everywhere while they suppress and softpedal anything about McCain or George Bush. I hope and pray that enough people will see through this awful exhibition of partisanship from a sector that is supposed to be impartial. I would love to see it stuffed back down their throat in November.

Grammar School Abortion Clinics in Britain

I keep wondering how much further these airhead liberals can go and they keep pushing it further. This country has become totally rudderless. Their actions are kneejerk. If they are not giving in to the muslims or taking away people’s self-defense weapons, they are pushing some kind of liberal nonsense such as this. This is what you get when you have no national character at all. Our country is flirting with this licentiousness. I hope and pray we can bring it to a halt before we are completely into moral relativism as is England.

The article, once again, is at Moonbattery.

Onward and Upward In The U. K.

If you ever need a laboratory to tell you where Moonbats will take us you only need to look at England. This article in Moonbattery would be unbelievable anywhere but in merry olde England.

Leftists Cratering Australian Schools

Think our public indoctrination centers schools are getting worse? Read what is happening in Australia. His opening paragraph is a universal truth. I used to wonder why the left couldn’t understand the expression, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. Then I realized that in their twisted mind it is broke. The schools don’t teach how to be a good liberal. They’re going hell bent on fixing that.

Help Save Conservative Talk Radio!

Please go to the ACLJ (American Center for Law and Justice) site. You will see a link to a petition that is actually being used by them to press the Congress to pass a law to shut down efforts to enact stealth regulations on the broadcast industry. This is something that in the past has been ironically named the “Fairness Doctrine”. There is nothing “fair” about the Fairness Doctrine. It is a thinly veiled move by the left to shut down conservative talk radio as it was a few decades ago before it was repealed at that time. Rush didn’t just appear from nowhere. He came about as a result of the previous “Fairness Doctine” being repealed.

Discerning Texan has a good summation article on the whole subject including the boycott of AP and a discussion on the Fair Use doctrine. I can identify with his evolution as a blogger and his questions about drawing notice to his articles. He does a good enough job that he hooks me more times than not.

It’s a full-time job keeping up with the lefty attempts to shut down dissenting voices. They won’t stop either. I’m waiting for my first visit from the “Truth Police”. I’m thankful for sites such as DT.

Thank You America

Subject: Think about it…

The OPEC minister may look you in the eye and say,
“We are at war with you infidels and have been since
the embargo in the 1970s. You are so arrogant you
haven’t even recognized it. You have more missiles,
bombs, and technology; so we are fighting with the
best weapon we have and extracting on a net basis
about $700 billion/year out of your economy. We will
destroy you! Death to the infidels!
While I am here I would like to thank you for the
following: Not developing your 250-300 year supply of oil
shale and tar sands. we know if you did this, it
would create thousands of jobs for U.S. citizens,
expand your engineering capabilities, and keep the
wealth in the U.S. instead of sending it to us to
finance our war against you infidels.

Thanks for limiting defense dept. purchases of
oil sands from your neighbors to the north. We love
it when you confuse your allies.

Thanks for over regulating every segment of your
economy and thus delaying, by decades, the
development of alternate fuel technologies.

Thanks for limiting drilling off your coasts, in
Alaska, and anywhere there is an insect, bird, fish, or
plant that might be inconvenienced. Better that your
people suffer. Glad to see our lobbying efforts have
been so effective.

Corn based Ethanol. Praise Allah for this sham
program! Perhaps you will destroy yourself from the
inside with these types of policies. This is a gift
from Allah, praise his name! We never would have
thought of this one! This is better than when you
pay your farmers NOT TO GROW FOOD. Have them use
more energy to create less energy, and
simultaneously drive up food prices.
Thank you U.S. Congress!

And finally, we appreciate you letting us fleece
you without end. You will be glad to know we have
been accumulating shares in your banks, real estate,
and publicly held companies. We also finance a good
portion of your debt and now manipulate your
markets, currency, and economies for our benefit.

THANK YOU AMERICA!”

(and then, to top it all off, we blame the oil companies for the mess - JL)

(This is not original with me. I got it in an email with no citation. Whoever did it should be congratulated.)

DON’T BLAME THE OIL COMPANIES!!!!!!!!

I put the title in caps because I want you to imagine me yelling it at you. I know some of you have gotten your pantyhose in a wad about the oil companies and their supposed “gouging” of us consumers. I mentioned in another post a few days ago about the environmental groups and their phalanxes of lawyers and lobbyists in Washington. Here is another very good article at JunkScience.com. I have a news flash for those of you that are  down on the oil companies supposed “windfall profits”. THE OIL COMPANIES WILL MAKE A PROFIT WHETHER THE PRICE OF OIL IS $50.00/BBL OR $150.00/BBL!

The name of the game is now and always has been - power. The enviros have been gathering it for years. Their first big conquest was over the Ozone hole (scam). They really began to flex their muscles after that. Then the endangered species act gave them a strong PR lever to pull whenever they wanted to tweak the publics guilt over a (possibly) disappearing species. The fear factor was employed to make people believe that if one species, such as the blind cave spider in central Texas was to disappear that it would be the start of a landslide that would doom all of society as we know it. And we bought into it. Partly because for years that propaganda has been fed to the school kids over and over and over. “We must not do anything to harm the environment” “The environment is holy” “Gaia must be worshipped”. Now all that the greenie-weenies have to do is say the magic phrase, “This is bad for the environment” and all their (now grown up) Manchurian Candidates nod their collective heads and say, “Oh yes, we must not do anything to harm the environment”.

Wake up, people. You’re being scammed again. The greenie-weenies love to hear you rail against the oil companies. They can take that to the bank. It takes the heat off of them. After all, they’re all mom and apple pie and the flag and doin’ it for the kids.

BTW, JunkScience is a good site to stay tuned in to. Steven Milloy has all kind of good stuff on there. He’s a big GW skeptic.

How To Deal With Cell-Phone Text Spam

The NYT (surprise, surprise) has a worthwhile article on dealing with cellphone spam. I haven’t had any myself but, as they say in the article, it’s only a matter of time. After you see who is offering this service it’s not hard to see why Sprint is losing customers.

Multiple Prizes Are Awarded

The Discerning Texan gets the prize. There are so many choice pieces on here that I could not choose. I’ll let you have a go at it. Here they are:

1. UPDATED Finally, the Republicans Grow a Pair on Drilling

(Now all they have to do is convince the Dems to go against all the environmental organization’s lawyers and lobbyists.)

2. Public Opinion: Drill NOW

(When did the Dems ever listen to public opinion?)

3. UPDATED WHO: No AIDS Pandemic for Heterosexuals

(Now you’ve gone and done it. You’ve blown the whistle on both the AIDS scam AND the global warming scam, all in the same article.)

4. Iraqi Sunni Sheik Leader Offers to help fight Osama in Afghanistan

(More heresy. You’re supposed to act like the MSM and keep hushed up now that things are snowballing for the coalition. You might make Bush look like a fairly decent president. That would negate all the work you’ve done for all these years to make him look evil, duplicitous and out-of-touch.)

NOAA - U.S. has 36th coolest spring on record

Well, ah do decleah. What is wrong here. Why don’t these confounded statistics agree with the GW loonies? Could it be because they can’t get hold of them to manipulate them a la the infamous hockey stick temperature graph? The article is here. Thanks to a post from Greenie Watch.

There Are Still Some Good People In the World

Here is a story about some people that are doing something totally unselfish for returning servicemen. You go, Marines. Semper Fi. I sent them a contribution. Maybe you could also. They deserve it.

America’s First Green Recession

Truer words were never spoken. This whole article sums up our silliness precisely. It is wholly disingenuous for the legislators to try and put the blame for our gas price woes on the backs of the oil companies. The reason for it is US! We have been electing the idiots that have us boxed in by regulations and that have seated activist federal judges.

It comes from years of proselytizing and propagandizing in our schools by the environmental nazis. They have convinced the kids (who are now the grown-ups) that the worst thing you can do is harm the earth. As a retired pastor friend of mine puts it, “the ten commandments have been replaced by one - Thou shalt do no harm to the environment”. Now all their Manchurian Candidates respond by being shamed into submission when their handlers proclaim an environmental emergency.

Thanks to China Confidential for this well put piece.

Exposing the Darwinian Paradox

Or, what to say to the members of the church of Darwinian Evolution when they throw up the smokescreen about there being nothing in Mein Kampf about evolution. This is repost of an article in The Christian Post.
