So what you think of Newt and Huck and their respective announcements?

Huck was Juan McCain's stalking horse in 2008. Thanks a lot, Huckleberry.

Newt is an academic, not a leader. His wilting performance before Bubba in 1995 indicates his lack of strength. As far his divorces are concerned, if anybody thinks we are going to find a leader without a history he is dreaming.

rod, here is my energy post. Jeff, Some say I’m petty, they’re right!

If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his LOVE, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, Phil 2:1

Once again we are lied to by the old cliché there is no silver bullet for oil prices. No, it isn’t a silver bullet it is a steel bullet that looks a lot like a pipe. Unlike the crack pipes the commie libs dream from, this one is punched into the ground and fills with oil to feed America the lifeblood of capitalism. It is no more complicated than supply and demand forcing the prices down and in a futures market the betting on future supplies rather than shortages. Perhaps if Present Rambobama had even run a Kool Aid stand and found out what happens when the kid across the street opens one too and watched his price lowering to match the new oversupply he would have a basic understanding of markets.

They throw the perpetual myth of increasing supply won’t affect prices in the short term and then just the opposite happens. Just like when President Bush removed the moratoriums on drilling and oil dropped $10 per bbl, the House announces a vote on an oil bill to force processing of applications and oil drops $8. Nothing else happened worldwide to affect oil other than the market’s expectation the bill would pass and had a good chance of becoming law. The Obamedia dutifully claimed the drop was due to lowered US economic recovery and China only growing by 10% rather than 11%. Both of these factors were already known by the market which means the only variable the market didn’t expect was a serious attempt at oil drilling by the US House.

Since then the market has been going back up expecting either the Senate or President Hussain to stop this bill to keep his moratorium in place. If either of the two reasons were true the price of oil would continue down but it has turned back up in expectations of the continued mismanagement of our oil resources. This proves that there is indeed a silver bullet that has been used numerous times in recent history in either positive or negative ways. The fact oil prices have been increasing since the BP spill and the drilling ban is proof enough prices move very quickly after there is a disruption in supply since much of those wells wouldn’t even be pumping oil for 2-5 years but the market reads it as a future crisis driving prices up and just the opposite when the House passes a bill lifting the ban on processing permits.

The other myth the commie libs like to use is the complaint we use 25% of the world’s oil yet only have 2% of the reserves. This has been proven false so many times it isn’t worth mentioning but they use it so many times it becomes a belief. This number is 20 years old when they were claiming we would be out of oil by the year 2020. Now with the oil finds we have found in shale and Alaska there are reserves enough to last another 30-50 years. The 2% represents none of this shale or Alaskan oil or potential finds since the Dems have passed laws saying you can’t even explore for oil offshore. This means we can’t even hunt for oil finds like have been found by Countries around the world to verify just how much oil is available. For all we know we have 25% of the oil but the environazis won’t allow us to find out.

The other factor driving oil is the Great Barak Depression that doesn’t seem to go away. Very likely unemployment and misery will remain high until he is unemployed again. How does a person who has never even taken a single economics course or business class become the head of the biggest economy in histoir? This guy has a PHD in hating America and Capitalism with a minor in racism and he claims to know anything about a worldwide commodity market? Right now with his disaster of the US economy the world is using oil and gold as shelters to inflation driving the prices up. Just like when you see oil raise $10 you head to the gas station before the end of the day expecting the prices to be higher overnight. There are so many factors pushing oil you would have to be stupid not to be putting as much as you can into this rising commodity. Oil producers around the world are buying extra expecting prices to rise just like you do when you fill on your way home rather than tomorrow.

We have an ideological buffoon standing in the way of our energy production. He can’t see past his hatred for America or the way of life capitalism has made for this Country. He may be the most brainwashed dupe on the planet so he lives his life as a walking talking liberal cliché looking to punish those evil oil companies while the poor and middle class become collateral damage by his high energy prices. In his mind the ends justify the means to hurt Big Oil while rewarding his green boondoggles. So we sit here watching the economy continue to melt down as he strangles it with all his power. Then he claims there is no Silver Bullet, especially when you don’t bother to put one in the chamber. Rather than even trying to find a Silver Bullet we get more of his Silver Bull.

Pray for America

He's caught in a vice. If he does not do something to actually help the country he may not be reelected. And if he does his side may not want to reelect him.

Truth is zero has set race relations back in the country over 20 years so don't blame me for something your dear leader has done.

Again YES!!! That's something that I haven't heard anyone say on TV or radio and it's so demonstrably TRUE!

I've heard people make comments about his claim of being post-racial is not true, but no one has had the guts to say it straight out that his constant racism (not JUST playing the race card) has set race relations back...

Liberals/media pundits’ racism charges usually reveal more about their (mis)perceptions or prejudices regarding race issues than the person being accused.

Listen you pissant. I don’t need my FRiends to talk for me or you actting like some victim since you can’t stand a 90 second read. I have been fighting this fight on the internet for 15 years in the belly of the beast in Portland Oregon. This is San Fagsico w/o the conservatism. You want to step up to the plate and grow some thick skin try it here.

Here is a sample of what I go through and click on my name wsoo to see the list of posts and go see the battles:

posts:http://blog.oregonlive.com/myoregon/2011/05/you_say_you_want_a_revolution.html

So after you post your 10 page screed, show where you posted it on the front lines where it matters. Posting it in front of the choir is one thing, but posting it in the trenches where you are going to get the flames and arrows is a whole nother game. So document where in the war you fought while you make your pea brained point.

See I am already the most hated writer in Oregon, you are a squirt gun against a tank. I don’t use my name there cause I have had real threats in the Soviet State of Oregon for my writing not like your whinefest. You better bring something worthwhile when you do your little composition jeff.

Pray for America

Brilliant stuff once again bray.

As I stated before huge percentage of oil reserves are actually owned by the gubmit and are not accessible due to enviro wacko law suits.

Just one 70 mile pipeline alone in Alaska that would connect new supply to the existing pipeline but is being blocked would allow yet another million barrels per day to go into production at the north slope but the enviros and zero have it all neatly blocked. Even worse they get media to spin it their way 24/7. That's just one reason of many why we need them out and quickly.

You are a squirt gun against a tank,now that just too good!!!

Don't let the old guys bother you buddy. This one sounds a wee bit constipated. After he goes to the early bird for dinner at 3 he will be OK when he gets home and has his metamucil.

That's as real as his world ever gets.

Not sure I like the “squirt gun” or the “pissant” vocabulary the best.

I can tell you that your posts on Sunday are the highlight of my week here on FR. Thank you Bray and thanks for doubling my enjoyment today with 2 essays! I’ve learned plenty from you and that’s saying a lot for a “Kahuna”. lol

Stop. Take a breath. Read my FReepmail.

To quote Oliver Cromwell (not my favorite person)

I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken
