That’s the whole idea OW. Lose faith in the American
ideal and search for an alternative, which they just
happen to have.

Don’t give up, it’s what they want.

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security....

- He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
- He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
- He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only."

Well, under the Obama/Leftists we're becoming

the Divided States of America.

If Obama's elected again, states that have nullified unconstitutional Marxist laws like Idaho are looking really good.

“Obama is ignoring a Federal judge’s order to allow drilling to continue in the gulf. This while almost every communist country in the world has oilwells operating in our back yard, the Gulf of Mexico.”

Yep, this is deliberate.

His allegence’s are not with this country.

“I cannot believe that there is no one, no way to fight this crap. Losing/lost faith in the entire system of checks and balances.”

I have long since lost any faith, trust, or belief in my government as it now stands. The only thing I believe is that it will be corrected by armed force if necessary. There are far too many armed men and women with military training and combat skills for the Government to do anything to stop it. One of our founding fathers stated that tree of Liberty must be watered with the blood of Tyrants and Patriots occasionally. So I prepare for the worst and hope for the best!

Enough is freakin enough.
This is why we need a “Donald Trump” style individual elected, someone like that won’t put up with this crap. Those little buggers can just be roadkill. Take 2 and let them breed somehwere else and repopulate.

Sure, and I would expect such a comment from those who are gullible enough to believe that America’s two largest oil well have been shut down as a result of a darn lizard.

So the blogger mis-spoke, and said 'oil wells', when he should have said 'counties'.

The point is, you have a habit of defending the pro-Obama side of every argument on this website. And you've been doing it for a very long time.

What they are doing just isn't going to get any clearer, America. It's not like it's a big secret.

The 0bama-Democrat-RINO (Progressive) "No Domestic Energy Policy!"

All of that puts the U.S. in a position that war for oil or
complete economic collapse will be our only choices.
You can't frustrate every source of domestic energy
without consequences. Our enemies will blackmail us
to the extent that we are vulnerable to blackmail.

0bama, the Democrats and RINOs are leading us into a real war for oil.
A war we won't have the energy to fight.
A war we don't need to fight because we have our own resources.

It Begins… First Oil Rig Relocates From Gulf to Foreign Waters

"As a result of the uncertainties surrounding the offshore drilling moratorium, we are actively seeking international opportunities to keep our rigs fully employed," Dickerson said. "We greatly regret the loss of U.S. jobs that will result from this rig relocation."

Idled Gulf Rigs Head For Africa

It is not just Gulf operations that are being effected either.

Wait and see for Shell {Shell puts Arctic drilling plans on hold, waiting on feds}

Let's not leave the refineries out.

EPA gives final "no" to Texas refinery permits

Then there are the land-based oil leases.

Judge Grills Feds on Pulling Drilling Leases

"A federal judge on Wednesday questioned Interior Secretary Ken Salazar's justification for canceling 77 drilling leases sold by the Bush administration around national parks in Utah."

That’s the whole idea OW. Lose faith in the American ideal

tet, you are right and I will never give up or lose faith on the American ideal however, that ideal ceased to exist many years ago. I've been naive. I thought living right, voting right, would safeguard our lives.

But, we've been living an illusion. We've been voting correctly (at least as much as possible) each election cycle; we've been vocal about abominations going on in our Country...etc etc. To what end? The result being that those elected, including republicans have been corrupted so thoroughly, that the United States was overthrown on November 04, 2008. Make no mistake about it...we have had a coup in this country and we all are praying that we can overturn this in 2012. But really, the only way it is going to be reversed is if "we" the people rise up "together" and go to D.C. and rip all the corrupt bastards out of their seats and hang them, one by one. That is not going to happen tet.

A poster reminded me earlier today of the quote in Patton: no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country, you win a war by making the other poor dumb bastard die for "his". Now though, the word 'country' has been replaced by 'ideal' and the enemy we have is 'within'. How are we going to fight an ignorant, vile electorate right here at home? How many are willing?
