Obama’s Birth Certificate turns out to be a forgery.

Well, it turns out that the birth certificate Obama’s been posting on his web sites as authentic turns out to be a forgery. OOPS! And, it seems that a document expert from the Department of Homeland Security is somehow involved in the forgery’s authentication.  OOPS!

I’m sure there is an illogical explanation that will placate the press and his supporters.

Obama Rapes the Ku (Daily Kos) Klan and the rest of his base.

Well, Surprise, Surprise, Surprise; the Duke of Hyde Park-Barack Obama-has has had his way with his base supporters and now he is changing his political tune. At least Jimmy Carter waited to poke his base supporters in the eyes until he spoke at his inauguration the first time he was sworn in as governor; his supporters being the white supremacists at the time.

The KDKK-Ku Daily Kos Klan-is in a snit over Obama breaking his promises and changing his position even before he officially accepts nomination at the Democrat Convention.

Move-On is mad also.

So, for those lefties who feel they’ve been shagged by Obama and left in bed alone and rejected I ask this question: Do you feel like you’ve been cheated?

It’s still not too late to get Hillary to run third party.

Obama has the repeating pattern of having proxies attack his opponents, slash and burn the opposing people or ideas, then stepping back and saying” Oh, I don’t believe that way. I would never do that!”

He’s done this over, and over, and over. Years ago I worked in an alcohol recovery facility. This pattern of behavior is reminiscent of unaddressed passive aggressive rage.

He sends his pastor, his friends, his wife, and his staff members out to say and do outrageous things, then repudiates them, but only if the heat gets too hot.

Today you’ll see the occasional sign with the cost of premium gas going tor over $5.00 a barrel. I was watching a ten year old movie and the gas signs in the movie showed premium gas at $1.25.00 a gallon back then.

Car sales are down, but gas consumption when compared to sales is not.

So, $6.00 a gallon by august 15 is not out of the question.

Remember, the price will rise to whatever the market will uphold. As long as consumption continues and global demand raises, prices will continue to go up and up, and up.  

Will there be $8.00 to $10.00 per gallon by Christmas?  Maybe, hold on to see….

Blow Back from the War On Drugs.

The war on drugs has proven that ingenuity, organization and innovation can make you rich. Unfortunately, in the business of narcotics wealth comes at a high human cost.

In terms of a conventional battle, the war on drugs has failed. Capitalism has proven that where there is money to be made, somebody will likely pay the price to make it. In the narcotics business the human cost of business is vast. Many in our society want to surrender the battlefield, declare victory and let the multinational companies profit from the willingness of some people the pay for the pleasure of getting high.

Ironically, it because of the war on drugs that gangs like the Bloods, Crips, Mexican Mafia and MS 13 can make big money in their enterprises. Almost all gangs survive from their profit from drug sales. I recall an old school rapper saying that until crack cocaine transformed the hood because it brought a large infusion of cash to may impoverished communities.

What would all those organized angry young men and women do if we took their largest self perceived avenue for making money away? It’s an interesting question.

Now, I do not support drugs or drug sales. However the narco-entrepreneurs are not likely to loose their way of life and not look for something else illicit to do.

Narco-entrepreneurs are very much like guerrilla fighters in an insurgency. They don’t just wave white flags and abide by rules of surrender. Take away their funding sources and they will do something else. Maybe even something worse.

Many republicans believe this thesis. I don’t. When is voting with your conscience a for the for the enemy?  Never. I respect John McCain and appreciate his service and dedication to our country. As of today, I can’t vote for him.

I don’t believe in voting for the lesser of two evils. Logically, voting for evil is voting for evil.  My conscience won’t allow me to do that.

John McCain has repeatedly called people like me agents of intolerance. So, guess what? He was correct. I disagree with John and can’t vote for him.

For those of you who lament us agents of intolerance having a conscience and making sincere attempts at following it, remember; we didn’t nominate John McCain. And, when is voting for evil the right thing to do?

Rush Limbaugh Does it Again

Rush Limbaugh, the Godfather of modern conservative broadcast journalism, set yet another record with his recent radio contract. I really appreciate his blazing the trail in the conservative field and inspiring me to step out and begin to speak out. In Rush’s case, money talks and Rush beat the contracts of everybody else in the field combined. Rush Limbaugh is a man who hasn’t stopped thinking big. Thank goodness.

China Thinks Big

I hate to say it, but the Chinese and Indians are thinking big, just like the Americans used to.

China is on a building binge: big cities, big infrastructure, big hydroelectric projects, big industry and big finance. Capitalism is alive and well in of all places communist China.  Over 150 million Chinese have entered the ranks of global middle class citizens over the last fifteen to twenty years. And, they want the good life.

For the West the implication is staggering; either get going with thinking big again or move over.

Taxes, National Spending, War on Terror, Oil and the election.

It’s pretty easy to be disgruntled with the state of the nation right now. Gas is over $4.00 a gallon; The national debt is astronomical and both Republicans and Democrats pine away for the opportunity to increase spending and or taxes; Islamofacists haven’t surrendered even though they have greatly reduced effectiveness. Our troops are still in combat.

Yet, truthfully the average American is wealthy; particularly when compared with 85% of the rest of the world.

We might be unhappy with the level of our wealth, unhappy that we don’t live in the top 1 percent of global luxury, yet we as a rule truly are wealthy. Additionally, we are incredibly dissatisfied with our wealth. We want more.

Unfortunately, politics and politicians can not give us that more.

Only a true relationship with God can.

Are People who support Obama because he’s black Racist?

If people support Obama merely because he’s black then they technically are racist. Discrimination or prejudice based on race is a fair definition of racism. People who support Obama only because he’s black can be fairly called racist.

I’ve been watching pundits and politicians vilify the Oil Companies, Opec, Enviromental groups, Automobile manufacturers and nearly everybody for the oil crisis. The answer to the question of who is responsible for high oil prices is really much closer to home.

Every time I look in the mirror I know that I’m responsible for the price of oil. Truthfully, every time you look in the mirror you should do the same. The cost of oil depend on how much you’re willing to pay for it. As long as we are willing to use oil and modern energy, capitalism will dictate how much we pay.

If I drive a car, heat my home, cool my business, purchase food at a grocery store that uses trucks, boats or trains to transport food, I pay for the cost of using that modern service.

There is a tremendous cost for modern living. Oil exploration, chemical plants, refineries, toxic waste dumps and pollution all come with modern living. If we don’t want to deal with these byproducts of modern living we shouldn’t use modern energy.

I don’t care what the consumer price of marijuana, cocaine, meth or heroin is running. I don’t use them. The cost of heroin is proportional to how much heroin users are willing to pay.

As long as we are willing to use modern energy and for the time being, oil, there will be a cost to pay. The point at which we are unwilling to use oil is when the price will drop to $0.00 PER GALLON.

World Wide Demand for Oil has increased 12 million barrels of crude per day in the past 10 years. World wide production Oil has not increased by nearly that much. Demand for crude over the next 20 years is expected to double the current demand.

Our popular culture’s fascination with junkies, crazy people and the violent.

Our popular culture loves a good train wreck. Take a person with good looks, acting or singing talent, weak character, a disregard for so called traditional morality, a violent streak and a predilection toward intoxication and you have a hot formula for fame.

We love money and the more there is of it the more we worship it.

So take money, fame, talent and violent intoxication and what do you get?

Read the tabloids.

Where does a Christian Conservative go when there isn’t anybody to vote for?

Now that we’ve established that both Obama and McCain are unacceptable for Christian Conservatives to vote for in the fall election, where can a voter like me turn?

A Troll form the Daily Kos accused me of being partisan recently and tried to shut me up because their indefensible positions wouldn’t hold up under scrutiny. When illogic wouldn’t work in changing my mind they resorted to the tactics that the brain dead often use: threats and vilification.

So when you’ve lost the big game, and Christian Conservatives have lost the big game this election cycle, how do we prepare for the next season?

1. Admit we got our butts kicked. Denial never works for very long anyway.
2. Don’t vote for unacceptable candidates.
3. Tell the candidates why they’re incompatible with the ideals you hold.
4. Get your team ready for the next season.
5. Look for and draft potential impact players for your team.
6. Don’t listen to party people who try to talk you into a fling with the devil.
7. When your party’s candidate looses, ignore the weak minded who blame you for their demise.
8. Shake the hand of the winner, say good job, and do everything legal, ethical and morally permissible to destroy their administration. They would do the same to you.
9. Look for new offensive and defensive plays to make yourself a better player and contender.
10. Never, ever give up.
