Poll asks: Do you approve of the way President Obama has responded to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill? Yes? No?
-
It's mildy entertaining to watch a once love-stricken Liberal Media discuss why Barack Obama is unwilling or unable to address the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. They seem truly bewildered by his lack of leadership. But it's really not that difficult to understand. In a 2006 Washingtonian article titled The Legend of Barack Obama, Garrett M. Graff examines "Obamania." At the heart of "Obamania" is his personality and presence - part preacher, part professor, part movie star. His charisma seems effortless, his charm an afterthought. ... Much of Obama's allure is that he is new and exciting enough...

This past weekend I participated in the “Is the (Real) News Dead” conference at Pepperdine University put on by the American Freedom Alliance. I spoke on four panels, discussing the fall of the daily newspaper, the power of social media, and how New Media can be utilized in defense of free societies. One of the other panelists I met and befriended was Yaron Brook, President and Executive Director for the Ayn Rand Institute. Throughout the weekend I was continually impressed by the thoughtfulness and precision of Yaron’s arguments and his passion for defending individual liberty. Thus it was a joy...

President Obama addressed the nation on the Gulf disaster. As usual his speech gave us more questions than answers: … an oil spill that is assaulting our shores and our citizens… Is America under attack? …stopping it has tested the limits of human technology… We can’t stop the spill? …Scientists at our national labs and experts from academia and other oil companies have also provided ideas and advice… But can’t stop the leak? … Countries like China are investing in clean energy jobs and industries … China is not running trillions of debt and has money to invest? …...

I found it very interesting that a Venezuelan gas rig mysteriously sank just one week after the BP oil rig explosion and it was blacked out by the media. Immediately, the media was reading the White House script handed to them, rather than reporting or investigating events that could lead to the real reasons why this catastrophe happened.

BP Plc's bond prices dropped on Wednesday, pushing yields higher, which analysts attributed to reports of the rising possibility that BP will have to declare bankruptcy as financial pressure from the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico keeps building.

My guess is that in effort to distract from the incompetence on the part of this White House, Obama figured it was time to put on his tough face. Someone needs to tell him that mad doesn’t equal competence. In an interview yesterday, Obama said: “I was down there a month ago, before most of these talkin’ heads were even paying attention to the gulf. A month ago I was meeting with fishermen down there, standin’ in the rain talking about what a potential crisis this could be. and I don’t sit around just talking to experts because this is...

Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), top Republican on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released documents Thursday night showing the Coast Guard recorded on April 21 -- less than 24 hours after the Deepwater Horizon explosion -- the magnitude of the oil leak disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. “Potential environmental threat is 700,000 gallons of diesel on board the Deepwater Horizon and estimated potential of 8,000 barrels per day of crude oil, if the well were to completely blowout,” the Coast Guard reported in a log of events from the immediate aftermath of the April 20 explosion --...

In the 1990s, thousands of Cubans cast themselves adrift on rafts, tires and any other makeshift craft that could float. They shoved off even from the island's far shore, entrusting their lives to the powerful Loop Current that pushes north from the Yucatán, rounds Cuba, rushes through the Florida Straits, and spills into the Atlantic, seeding the Gulf Stream. Many drowned or perished from thirst. But others survived to wash up on Florida's east coast. Now the Loop Current is in the news once again. Oil from the Deepwater Horizon gusher—please don't call it a "spill"—has begun trickling into the...

Barack Obama promised us leadership not commissions when he was running for President: Just today, Senator McCain offered up the oldest Washington stunt in the book – you pass the buck to a commission to study the problem. But here’s the thing – this isn’t 9/11. We know how we got into this mess. What we need now is leadership that gets us out. I’ll provide it, John McCain won’t, and that’s the choice for the American people in this election. America took him for his word. Instead the President keeps pulling commission after commission out of his sleeves.The...

Government Scientists Are Consulting But Unable to Stop BP Oil Spill Published May 30, 2010 In what is measuring up to be the biggest environmental disaster in U.S. history, the government is nearly helpless to stop the oil flowing from the Deepwater Horizon well that exploded in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20. The White House said Sunday that it expects the spill to grow by 20 percent after BP gets started with its latest effort to contain the spill, beginning Monday or Tuesday. The White House also said it is tripling its environmental cleanup crew. But the additional...

Jefferson Parish officials say they believe an unexpected show of force cleaning up beaches on the parish’s Gulf Coast was staged for President Obama’s visit. Those officials said they received many calls to their office from eyewitnesses who said the workers showed up in several buses around 7:30 a.m. The buses were loaded with workers – a show of force the officials said hadn’t been seen to this point in cleanup efforts. The callers told the Grand Isle mayor’s office that the workers who showed up were given t-shirts and began cleaning oil as the president flew over. Those same...

In one of the most chiling and gripping video ads I’ve seen in a long time, this clip by the NRSC sure puts the problems with this administration in sharp focus. The video opens with Obama, in a critically harsh speech tearing Bush apart for Katrina, and vowing “Never again!” It progresses quickly with glimpses into how this inept and corrupt administration has handled each catastrophe and disaster it’s been handed. Obama and his cohorts in charge of these top administrative offices, ignore the problems as if it weren’t theirs, choosing instead to take vacations, play golf and pursue campaign...

Ronald Reagan once said “let there be bold differences, no pale pastels.” The difference between Obama and Gov. Palin could not be more stark. He has been remarkably absent on this issue, and has demonstrated absolutely no leadership. Instead, he plays the blame game, fobbing the issue off to an administration that has been out of office now for 15 months. He is reverting to the same failed policies of the last four decades.

Latest RNC Commercial Slams Obama: "Never Again": Obama & The BP Oil Spill

Thousands of good people are working all across the Gulf of Mexico to fight the ecological disaster caused by the BP oil spill. Unfortunately we rarely see those everyday heroes. Instead we watch the waffling of the Obama administration top officials respond team... Lisa Jackson –the Administrator of EPA is one of the most hated officials in America. She showed total disrespect for the people of this country. When the public outrage was building during ClimateGate and the cap-and-trade bill was not able to go through the US Senate Lisa Jackson issued an executive order declaring the carbon dioxide...

We continue to hold BP responsible as the responsible party. But we are on them, watching them! This is how Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano described the federal involvement in cleaning the oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico today. No kidding! The Obama administration is doing exactly this: watching BP from the sidelines. In fact we are all watching. There is a camera next to the crack in the pipe and we all are watching live deadly oil gushing into the ocean. As a teen I used to look for the Loch Ness monster on the live...

Congressman Antony Weiner has a beef with Glenn Beck and his radio and TV sponsor Goldline... To explain it to Weiner: it is the same like politician’s campaign contributions. If BP gives millions in campaign cash to ‘Barack Obama for America’ so he can become US President it does not mean that Obama is working for them even if they profit from his world view and executive decisions. Even if the President chooses to help BP by not closing their leaking oil well forever we are not allowed to say that he did it because he took campaign money from...
