Obama’s Vow Could Threaten Industry

– Barack Obama on Tuesday vowed he would break America’s addiction to “dirty, dwindling and dangerously expensive” oil if he is elected U.S. president — and one of his first targets might well be Canada’s oilsands.

A senior adviser to Obama’s campaign told reporters it’s an “open question” whether oil produced from northern Alberta’s oilsands fits with the Democratic candidate’s plan to shift the U.S. sharply away from consumption of carbon-intensive fossil fuels.

“If it turns out that those technologies don’t advance … and the only way to produce those resources would be at a significant penalty to climate change, then we don’t believe that those resources are going to be part of the long-term, are going to play a growing role in the long-term future,” said Jason Grumet, Obama’s senior energy adviser.
The remarks amount to a shot across the bow of Alberta’s oilsands industry, which is planning to boost production from 1.3 million barrels a day to 3.5 million barrels over the next decade.

The industry has come under sustained attack from U.S. environmentalists over the past year because the production of its heavy oil emits an estimated three times more greenhouse gases than conventional oil.

Barack Obama’s _amerikka bears no relation to the America of our founding fathers. As we approach the Fourth of July there sits on Capital Hill Hussein Obama’s Global Poverty Tax, a piece of legislation that makes a mockery of the Boston Tea Party and about every principle upon which this nation was founded.

Obama’s grand theme is to spread America’s wealth to the world’s poor, as the onetime community organizer from the streets of South Chicago goes global.

The species of hope that Barack Obama preaches is a first cousin of disappointment. He speaks to his followers as though they are victims, and it resonates with them because victimhood is a latent element of their collective self-image. Most of the younger ones in his audiences face historically unprecedented educational and vocational opportunities. Within the reasonable grasp of their individual initiatives is a future that is the envy of most of the world’s youth. Yet they look longingly for someone from the government to offer them hope.

He says, “It’s not too late to claim the American dream,” and they cheer wildly, and some even cry.

Don’t they know that the American dream isn’t a wish granted by a politician, or an entitlement from the government? Do they need a political seer to tell them what to hope for, and dream of, because they are unable to find it for themselves? (Source)

And that is how Obama weakens America. No, that’s how he eviscerates America’s very spine from her body. He summons forth from each citizen not the warrior, but the whiner, not the innovator, but the complainer, the wannabe dreamers with neither the will nor spine to capture their dreams on their own.

Can you imagine what this country would be like were America’s pioneers made of the same moth eaten material as Obama and his febrile supporters? They would have never made it inland from the east coast, let alone successfully execute a war against England and go on to building the greatest nation ever to be established on this planet. I can just see the Obama settlers waiting around for the government to build them a freaking road West and guarantee safe passage while they try to talk nice to some savage Indians (Yes, boys and girls, Indians could be very very nasty too) who just burned their houses down.

Obama supporters would not have had a Boston Tea Party, but a Boston Pity Party.

But let’s put aside the pilfering of our hard earned dollars by this glassy eyed socialist; “One estimate is 0.7% of gross national product, or an additional $845 billion over 13 years in addition to existing foreign aid expenditures.” Let’s look at the very real threat to American sovereignty that this travesty introduces.

These goals include a “standing peace force” (i.e. a U.N. standing army), a “U.N. Arms register” of all small arms and light weapons, “peace education” covering “all levels from preschool through university,” and “political control of the global economy.” The goals call for implementing all U.N. treaties that the United States has never ratified, all of which set up U.N. monitoring committees to compromise American sovereignty. (Virtual “Global Poverty Act” Tea Party)

and…

By adopting the Millennium goals in 2000, the U.N. escalated its demands to impose international taxes. Specifically, the Millennium called for a “currency transfer tax,” a “tax on the rental value of land and natural resources,” a “royalty on worldwide fossil energy projection — oil, natural gas, coal,” “fees for the commercial use of the oceans, fees for airplane use of the skies, fees for use of the electromagnetic spectrum, fees on foreign exchange transactions, and a tax on the carbon content of fuels.”

It doesn’t bother U.N. sycophants that most U.S. handouts go into the hands of corrupt dictators who hate us and vote against us in the U.N., and that only 30% of our foreign aid ever reaches the poor. U.N. bureaucrats accuse the U.S. of being “stingy” in its handouts to underdeveloped countries.

There is much more to the Millennium goals than merely extorting more money from U.S. taxpayers. The goals set forth a comprehensive plan to put the United States under U.N. global governance.Obama’s 0.7% Solution For Poverty Gets Pass From Senate Republicans

It has always irritated me when the left says they will take America “back”. Back? They never, ever had it. What they want is to take America to hell.

I come from a pretty moonbatty family and I can tell you first hand that most lefties think don’t care for outward signs of patriotism such as flying the flag, pledging allegiance or getting choked up during the National Anthem.

To the Left, the most patriotic thing an American can do is to work towards changing America into something which it has never been before.

Working to create a new and different America is their idea of patriotism, because the America that they love exists only in an imagined future, and not in our history.

And it is a future that will never come to pass if I have a damn thing to say about it.

It’s Canada’s 141st birthday today and 41 years since I arrived here right on the 100th birthday, a sort of present to Canada. No, no inflated egos here! It’s changed a lot in 41 years of course. I thought coming to Toronto I was moving to a big city but it was just a big town and a somewhat backward one. Things that surprised me, no mini skirts! They’d been around for at least three years in UK. No pubs, just sparsely furnished taverns with separate entrances and seating areas, one for men and one for ladies and escorts. No bar, you sat at bare plastic tables and a waiter brought you beer. And you couldn’t have an open bottle of beer outdoors, even in your own backyard if I remember rightly. All the telephone wires were above ground strung from poles. Food was plentiful and cheap. Refrigerators were huge.
Nationally Canada was prosperous and optimistic, it was debt free, the debt incurred by the huge effort made by a small population to fight the war had been paid off. Then along came the charismatic Trudeau whose ‘with it’ persona fitted perfectly with the adolescence of the sixties and so we got Trudeaumania and with him came Socialism, massive spending on all kinds of feel good schemes and much meddling with business.
Fans of Obama take note, these inexperienced, sweet talking, think they know all the answers dilletantes are bad news.
As I’ve heard, Canada could have had English government, American know-how and French culture. Instead it got French government, English know-how and American culture.
The good news is that with Stephen Harper, the current PM, we seem to have reverted somewhat to the good qualities of the more staid fifties before the spoilt brats of the sixties screwed everything up.

The Navy Invented Sex

A Marine and a sailor were sitting in a bar one day arguing over which was the superior service.

After a swig of beer the Marine says, ‘Well, we had Iwo Jima.’

Arching his eyebrows, the sailor replies, ‘We had the Battle of Midway.

‘Not entirely true’, responded the Marine. ‘Some of those pilots were Marines, in fact, Henderson Field on Guadalcanal was named after a Marine pilot killed at the Battle of Midway.’

The sailor responds, ‘Point taken.’

The Marine then says, ‘We Marines were born at Tunn Tavern!’

The sailor, nodding agreement, says, ‘But we had John Paul Jones.’

The argument continued until the sailor comes up with what he thinks will end the discussion. With a flourish of finality he says…… ‘The Navy invented sex!’

The Marine replies, ‘That is true, but it was the Marines who introduced it to women.’

The raw beetroot sounds interesting, I never thought of eating it raw before. The leaves and stems of beetroot make excellent greens, steam them and dribble olive oil and vinegar on, add pepper and a bit of salt. Delicious!

It’s good to see a major newspaper, albeit a British one, The Times, giving an optimistic report on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.

Alan Sullivan with his sailor’s knowledge of climate, geology and astronomy has done a sterling job over the last few years in debunking the Global Warmists’ warnings of apocalyptic disaster. In this post he quotes in full an article from today’s WSJ entitled ‘Global Warming as Mass Neurosis’. Great stuff.

Okay, so I was wrong… The most damaging endorsement possible for Obama isn’t from The Goracle.

From OneFreeKorea:

The Chosun Sinbo, the mouthpiece of North Korea’s Japanese front organization Chongryon and often for the North Korean regime itself, has announced its preference for Obama over McCain, whom it calls “a variant of Bush” and “nothing better than a scarecrow of neoconservatives,” which is a bit odd considering that the Bush Administration’s giveaway diplomacy is better for Kim Jong Il than even Clinton’s awful performance.

Michelle Obama, wife of Democrat presidential candidate Barack Hussein Obama, symbolizes everthing ill about the politics of race. She also represents the very lowest motivation in life: envy and revenge. Some call it social justice, but that’s only a fancy name for the base reaction to life– pure materialism. It’s all about fame and fortune. Ultimately, now, it’s about the White House.

The Obama’s degrade the very idea of the White House. Instead the home of our country’s leader, they are suggesting that is should be the triumph of envy. Economic jealously. The lowest of the low should sit in the Oval Office. This is justice. This is the juvenile insult the whole world offers America through the Obamas. The Third World believes it has a right to sit on the throne of power. The Third World had nothing to do with the creation of that throne, nor any capacity to contribute to it, nor has it any comprehension of how the throne was established, or what it means, or what it’s worth. The “have nots” simply look at it, and envy it, and are angry that they don’t have it. The Obamas represent the non-white Third World. They represent envy. This is the secret of their popularity.

Madman and dictator Col. Muammar Gaddafi, who once declared that “one day…Islam will disseminate its power over the European countries“, is ardently hoping that Obama’s pretense of supporting Israel is simply plain old election propaganda, as do all of Obama’s muslim supporters throughout the world. Gadaffi concludes that Obama’s “inferiority complex” prevents him from declaring camaraderie with Israel’s Palestinian enemies.

The more you dig, the more you discover that Barack Hussein Obama is like honey to a fly when it comes to attracting the support of muslims, terrorists and socialist scum. One wonders why his supporters remain oblivious. Of course, given that his primary base is composed of the hate-America crowd, they probably aren’t oblivious at all, just accepting.

There are elections in America now. Along came a black citizen of Kenyan African origins, a Muslim, who had studied in an Islamic school in Indonesia. His name is Obama. All the people in the Arab and Islamic world and in Africa applauded this man. They welcomed him and prayed for him and for his success, and they may have even been involved in legitimate contribution campaigns to enable him to win the American presidency. But we were taken by surprise when our African Kenyan brother, who is an American national, made statements that shocked all his supporters in the Arab world, in Africa, and in the Islamic world. We hope that this is merely an elections “clearance sale,” as they say in Egypt – in other words, merely an elections lie. As you know, this is the farce of elections – a person lies and lies to people, just so that they will vote for him, and afterwards, when they say to him: :”You promised this and that,” he says: “No, this was just elections propaganda.” This is the farce of democracy for you. He says: “This was propaganda, and you thought I was being serious. I was fooling you to get your votes.”

Allah willing, it will turn out that this was merely elections propaganda. Obama said he would turn Jerusalem into the eternal capital of the Israelis. This indicates that our brother Obama is ignorant of international politics, and is not familiar with the Middle East conflict.

Here’s the wife of the Great Unifier, the Great Conciliator, the Great Educator who’s going to bring America to a post-racial future. She’s supposedly a community activist working for the benefit of poor neighborhoods whose teenagers are disproportionately at risk for sexually transmitted diseases. She has an opportunity to reverse, through education, decades of racial distrust and to simultaneously protect her teen-aged female constituents against “cervical cancer and other diseases in females caused by certain types of genital human papillomavirus (HPV)[, a class of viruses] … which are responsible for 70% of cervical cancers and 90% of genital warts.” So Mrs. Obama strikes a mighty blow to promote ignorance, to prevent vacination, and to permit preventable STDs and cervical cancer.

Read it all…. Did Michelle Obama, channeling Rev. Wright’s racist paranoia, condemn south Chicago girls and young women to unnecessary and preventable STDs and cervical cancer?

The world is simply twisted these days. A library in a small mid-west town prohibits the use of it’s facility to a Christian group who wished to hold a financial planning seminar there. You see, they might quote scripture and that, as you know, scares the Christophobes nearly to death.

Just a little upriver from this ever so sanctimonious library, a county park is put into a tither at the prospect of a local church holding an outdoor service in it’s amphitheater. Same problem - the G word might slip out. I can guarantee you, had a gay group (or a muslim group) asked for use of these facilities, there wouldn’t have been a single snag.

Maybe Cincinnati, the mid-west town in question, will soon become so reprogressive that a mid-west counterpart to San-Francisco’s Folsom Street Fair will become an annual event (do not click link unless you want to view grotesquely graphic gay sex which, the enlightened ones in Californication consider proper public behavior.) Which, no doubt, would make all of the Christophobes exceedingly happy. After all, in today’s world, watching men screw each other in public is far less offensive than the sight of Christians worshiping their God.

Dear Google comrades Sergei and Larry!

The Party looks kindly at your attempts to correct and improve history by unobtrusively modifying the Google logo on notable calendar dates. For years you have zealously informed the masses about progressive and useful events like Earth Day or Earth Hour, while purposefully ignoring Memorial Day (no logo change on this reactionary American holiday). Most recently, you enlightened the unwashed about the Spanish artist Velázquez on June 6 without mentioning the Allied Invasion of Normandy on D-Day, a celebration of which would indeed be offensive to National Socialists.
~
The time is ripe for us to reinforce your amateurish efforts with our brand of historical revisionism that stands on a firm scientific foundation of the Party doctrine. The next big holiday is Independence Day. Review the following list of Party-recommended events and logos for mandatory inclusion.

Professor Massad… believes the Iraq war stemmed from the sexual prowess of the American male (”In such a strategy, Iraqis are posited by American super-masculine fighter-bomber pilots as women and feminised men to be penetrated by the missiles and bombs ejected from American warplanes.”); he condones terrorism against Israel (”This can be done by the continuing resistance of Palestinians in Israel and the Occupied Territories to all the civil and military institutions that uphold Jewish supremacy”); and lastly, he attempted to exile a student from his class who had the gall to disagree with him.

… In Desiring Arabs, Massad asserts that the West “produces homosexuals as well as gays and lesbians, where they do not exist.” But for colonialism, Massad contends, there would be no gay people in the Middle East for the tyrannical governments of Egypt and Iran to persecute. Although Massad says he opposes hanging gay people, he shifts the blame from the hooded executioners to the United States.

Let’s hope “Professor” Massad never, ever reproduces.

Here is some humor to help wash it down.

An uplifting video to clean the mental palette of the taste of Obama, Hillary, ReProgressives, Ameri-phopes, defeatists and other appeasers who would like to see these choppers grounded, along with America’s power and honor.

I would love to see these babies flying over an Obama rally. You’d have to call a team from Port-o-let to vacuum up the rivers of crap off the ground from the collective, involuntary release of sphincter muscles - after Obama gets lifted out by emergency AirCare for heart failure.
