Its cheap and easy lately to get cynical about Obama. I mean, after all, there is this whole oil thingy and BP can't stop it and Obama doesn't seem to care, because its like he is fighting wars on different fronts...
Wait... are we STILL at war? Oh yeah... I guess we are. And not just the ambiguous War on Terror and War on Drugs and War on Obesity... we actually-factually are at war in Iraq and Iran, I mean Afghanistan. Crazy. I almost forgot.
And now there is this new war... while we are in a couple of Wars to Secure Oil, we are also coincidentally at War AGAINST Oil. We really are a torn Nation, aren't we?!
And all while we have these ridiculous people saying ridiculous things...like... Sarah Palin. Lets mock her for a minute not only because it so easy, but because she deserves it. What kind of ?!KDI*& goes out and says the things she says? Its not retardation. I thought it was that for a while, but now I realize it is more. It might have a little retardation involved, but for the most part, I think it is something more... The word "Fool" comes to mind.
Complain, complain she did yest-nigh on Obama continually turning down the offers of foreign nations... meanwhile, he's accepted their help weeks ago.
Complain complain she goes on and on about how if we could only drill closer... not realizing that there are unused permits on each and every coast of our great nation sitting unused because...
Ding,Ding,Ding... you guessed it... no oil there.
The idea that these loud fart-holes on Fox and the AM keep espousing is that we can drill ourselves to energy independence... FACTS and STATISTICS simply prove it isn't so. Our demand is too great. The worlds demand is too great. There is no possible way for the US to drill ourselves into energy bliss without invading other countries and tapping their formations on our own. Otherwise, as it stands now, we are beholden to the international corporations that provide our oil infrastructure with its fuel by amassing great amounts from around the globe.
It is not as simple as making an agreement with Canada. It is not as simple as overthrowing Venezuala. It is not as simple as converting Central Asia. This oil trade is a dirty and distorted business that is more corrupt than Nigeria's government. If we can not quit using oil, which we can not, we must for now accept that we are the number one player in this dirty mess.
So enough already, I tire of these boring cherades. Sean Hannity... would you please try to stop the well of spewing ooze that just keeps coming out of Sarah Palin's mouth... you could try the ol'Junk Shot and stuff your oversized, fat-filled head in her pipe and kill two birds with one stone!
