How Convenient

How convenient:

Der Fuhrer, Obama, gave his “blessings” for the energy companies to resume exploration/drilling in our coastal waters, and;

SHEEE ZAM !!

All of a sudden we have an offshore rig explode, sink and start leaking oil into the Louisiana coastal waters. And, concurrently, we have two coal mine disasters in Kentucky and West Virginia. Total human body count 43. Thirty-two in the mines and eleven in the oil well platform explosion.
Concerning the gulf, it took Der Fuhrer an extended period of time (over a week) to make a statement AND shut down future exploration for petroleum reserves. He can be excused for not acting sooner due to the fact he was on his "look and see how great the economy is since I took over" tour(s).
Add to this the increase in food prices due to our governments insistence on “renewable energy resources”. In this case, ethanol, which cost more per BTU to produce, requires more raw product, in this case corn and other grains that could be fed to humans and livestock, use of another resource that is in short supply, water and ethanol is not easily transported nor is it as efficient as petroleum.
Where is Der Fuhrer and his multi-nationalist friends taking us?
How about to a world wide famine, a world wide energy shortage, the non-moslem world, except CHINA, being held hostage, for energy, by the likes of that “paper hanging” SOB in Iran, the Saudi sheiks, etc.
Add to this the fact that Der Fuhrer is hell-bent to jam a new energy bill and immigration “reform” down our throats.

Texas Democrats Endorse Voter Fraud

The Texas legislature is meeting in its biennial session and Texas Democrats are once again making asses of themselves. By threatening to seek sanctuary in New Mexico or Oklahoma or another state to shirk their duty to Texas as they did in 2003.
This time it is not about redistricting. This time it is about voter fraud. It is about enabling unqualified aliens to vote in Texas elections. The Democrats are thereby denying Texas citizens their expectation of and their right to, fair and honest elections.
Texas Democrats Endorse Voter Fraud
One of the primary opponents of the Voter ID bill, Leticia Van de Putte, D-San Antonio, is also sponsoring legislation to ad more taxes on the things you buy most. Despite the rhetoric the end result of such a bill would be an increase in prices at the grocery store and other retailers that you, the customer and voter buy the products you and your family need and use most.

Just how Freaking Stupid is the EPA ?

I initially herd (you will understand later) about an EPA ruling that animal flatulence, that is farting to you folks in Northwest Louisiana and Northeast Texas, is a major pollutant and therefore subject to a greenhouse gas emissions tax. EPA's Air Pollution Target.

EPA officials deny that a farting tax on animals is in the works. John Millett, a spokesman for EPA's air and radiation division said, "EPA is not proposing any type of tax on livestock..." Riiiight, your government would never lie to you or attempt to cover you with fertilizer straight from the bull.

Would it?

The American Farm Bureau Federation said, based on federal agriculture department figures, it would require farms or ranches with more than 25 dairy cows, 50 beef cattle or 200 hogs to pay an annual fee of about $175 for each dairy cow, $87.50 per head of beef cattle and $20 for each hog.
Farmers from across the country have expressed outrage over the EPA report, both on Internet sites and in opinions sent to EPA during a public comment period that ended last week. Many call it a "cow tax" and say the EPA proposed it.

"It's something that really has a very big potential adverse impact for the livestock industry," said Rick Krause, the senior director of congressional relations for the American Farm Bureau Federation.
The fee would cover the cost of a permit for the livestock operations. While farmers say it would drive them out of business, an organization supporting the proposal hopes it forces the farms and ranches to switch to healthier crops.

"It makes perfect sense if you are looking for ways to cut down on meat consumption and recoup environmental losses," said Bruce Friedrich, a spokesman in Washington for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

"We certainly support making factory farms pay their fair share," he said.
