His inaction on the ”crisis” promotes the destruction of the fishing and tourist industries in the region thereby creating secondary crises, provides a ready excuse to shut down all new oil drilling, and will effectively raise the price of oil and food across the country bringing more Americans to a financial brink forcing dependence on food stamps, welfare, and other government programs.
I see this happening too, but every time he uses one of these things to his advantage it becomes more and more transparent what he is trying to do. He seriously believes we are that stupid...I think we are not. I just pray every single day that they run out of time. Right now. especially with the oil clean up they look like The Apple Dumpling Gang ( maybe my prayers are working). I know it won’t last, but November is creeping up on them very quickly and they’ve got A LOT of campaigning to do (and I mean A LOT!). Not to mention that they have pissed off the unions (their personal spigot) when they threatened Blanche Lincoln and Clinton went to campaign for her. I really do see things unraveling for them. I wish it would happen faster though...

ozero is taking full advantage of this oil spill by using the federal government to be the good cop/bad cop. First the idea came up about burning the oil on the surface way out at sea. No way, blocked by the feds. Ok, then dispersement agents. Oh No, that would damage the environment. (Oil hitting the marsh doesn’t?). Then they mandated that BP use a different dispersant. Ooops, there wasn’t sufficient quantity of the different material. Bobby Jindal was ready to get to work to dredge and build articial barriers to stop the oil. Sorry, no permission granted. One federal agency after another stood in the way of anyone doing anything productive to stop the oil. Then bho has the you know whats to stand there and trash BP for not doing anything to contain the oil. They put the entire responsibility on BP’s backs but gave them no authority to do anything. This was no accident.
As to the rumors of sabatoge, who knows? But think back over the last 8 weeks or so, there have been a LOT of news stories of accidents at refineries, pipelines, rigs and so on. Either the press is trying to make a case for obama strangling the oil industry by highlighting these accidents or there are lots of these “accidents” just mysteriously happening. Given the character of this admin, I don’t put anything past them.
We have huge percentages of our nation that are illiterate or functionally illiterate for a reason. Our schools deliberately use “whole word” and “new-new math” for a reason. Children who can not read and do basic arithmetic are passed from grade to grade and given a worthless diploma for a reason. And...The illiterate immigrant is favored over the highly educated for a reason.
The purpose is to create an easily lead and confused population of people who are absolutely incapable of thinking rationally, and are incapable of taking care of themselves. These ill-educated people then overly burden the economic system and, along with other factors, this contributes to utter collapse.

The press has been complicit from the start. But...I do see some of them peeling away from him. I’m not sure how dirty the administrations hands are with regards to their role in the oil spill but I do think once we elect a new congress there will be a lot of answering to do. I believe (as you)they will have a difficult time washing this oil from their hands.
Absolutely correct. Anytime that anyone caves in to thinking that we should "give them the benefit of doubt" or thinking that "they couldn't really be that bad," it is at our National PERIL. These people are driven by EVIL intent & motives, it can NOT be overlooked.
Thanks for the ping!
Rush has said from the beginning that it’s all been done on purpose and he’s right.
A rather accurate list . . . leaving some things out, no doubt.
Thx.
Thanks for the ping!

...thanks for the tip Granny

Did you see this?
Then they haven't read Ayn Rand's, The Virtue of Selfishness yet. . and probably never will. Do they read at all? Do we need a PreTest to Vote? Not to mention Art's old requirements of 1. Tax Paying Citizen - bring your 1040 2. Veteran or currently serving - bring your DD-214 3. Photo ID - bring your Driver's License + I think I'll add number 4. Pass a Pretest on the Candidates and Issues.
Sound Logical? Wish we had a country built on Voters that had to pass these 4 requirements to Vote. Maybe after Revolution II. . .
Just got a chain email with this. With what has happened the past few days, this needed a good strong bump.
Keep it Going! Everyone in America needs to see this article before the November election! I've sent it to everyone I know. . .
What stuns me is that Americans won't even fight for their children and grandchildren.
