Jamie Gorelick’s BAAAACCCKKKK!

July 15th, 2008 | 2 Comments

In my opinion, 9/11 was largely the responsibility of Jamie Gorelick.  Jamie Gorelick is pure evil. Period. Her name figures prominently in several domestic disasters. Sure, she didn’t break the levees in New Orleans, but it was the climate of non-communication between agencies that contributed to the problems in a substantial way. So yeah, some [...]

That pesky “Bush is beholden to oil” thing

My buds at Independent Sources so nailed this issue I just suggest going there and reading it.  A synopsis: …….but reading this story about Brazil’s recent discovery of a deep water oil field of 5,000,000,000 to 8,000,000,000 barrels of oil made me think of it……. ……but when the US has a known field of 25 [...]

Today is the national protest aimed at the oil producers where people are encouraged to not buy gas for one day as a sign of protect. I won’t be buying gas today. My wife won’t be buying gas today. It’s not because either of us think this will work. It’s because we bought gas the [...]

Thomas Freidman made the above observation: He then ties in this quote: When I heard the president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, declare that the Holocaust was a myth, I couldnt help asking myself: I wonder if the president of Iran would be talking this way if the price of oil were $20 a barrel today [...]
