Checking in.
SECOND!
Good morning, BTW.
If anyone has a list of numbers and email addresses for the “establishment” media- please post it and maybe we can get the mods to add an “update” tag to that post....
Thanks....
I can’t help but wonder if we aren’t seeing the very beginnings of the next American Revolution - a revolution to wrest control of our country back from the grasp of those who only want to destroy it?
I wonder . . . .
The Petition: 29,000
;-))
Maybe top 25? Now I have two threads to refresh..this one and the Georgia fighting one. Plus the Call Congress Back.
In the meantime, the house is getting dirtier, and the kids are still hungry :)
Far from Breaking News
29,039 last I checked...WOO HOO
Well, here we are again! Way to go eeevil. I missed your show yesterday but heard it was great. I stand ready to make phone calls and send emails.
BTTT
Here I am. May the backbone continue to grow and may my COngresscritter get his arse to DC, lame duck or not.
"A few days ago I wrote about how gasoline and food costs were affecting my family. Today I write about dangerous developments in the Russian theater and how they may adversly impact our economy. It is all related.
"Today we find that Russia has apparently invaded the breakaway State of Georgia. Independent of the politics involved with that action, it is clear this can (and likely will) have a detrimental impact on the availability of oil and subsequent prices of crude and at the pump.
"Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi suspended the House session early on Friday to circumvent a vote on the energy issue, and then left Washington for a whirlwind book tour in her private jet. (I wonder at what expense in the availability of jet fuel to the overall market). Her response to the energy crisis has been that she opposes opening offshore areas to drilling, as well as in Alaska's wilderness and interior areas to shale exploration, because she fears harm to the environment. Two questions come to mind: 1) Does this mean that she (and Democrats by extension) are comfortable with continued importation of oil from areas that are far less stable (and environmentally ambivalent) than the US, and what does this say for their "concern" for the environment? 2) While their "no drill" zones prevent the US from drilling off its coasts, other, less environmentally friendly, nations such as China are drilling away happily just 50 miles off our Florida coast. How then, do these "no drill" zones protect us from their mistakes?
"Now we have the additional problem of Russia intransigence. What impact this has remains to be seen but it can't help. At all! It is time that President Bush returns to the United States and takes a serious stance on the issue of energy. He should call an emergency session of Congress; not only for the ongoing energy issue but because of the news out of Russia and its import Worldwide. The two issues are intwined, of course, so what better reason to do what's right than this new development?
"Just how much more are we Americans going to take before this gets completely out of hand, and America becomes embroiled in a major recession that could/should have been avoided?
"Respectfully,
"bcsco"
I did receive a nice acknowledgment on my first email. Let's see what's said, if anything, this time.
Face it, if it was the Dems sitting there, the alphabet networks would have it as their lead story on every newscast. The talkshows would hardly talk of anything else and words like "meaningful revolt" and "angrily standing up for their constitutents" would fill the air. We need to get the word out and force the lame-stream media to cover this better.
There, we must be honest with ourselves.
