Over three months ago, I wrote a post about the price of gasoline, “Up, Up, And Away.” At the time, I was lamenting how gas prices were around $3 a gallon, and outlined some of the difficulties these kinds of prices place on regular old people like us. I did not think that the prices [...]

* Bumped Up * Update below the fold. Of Obama campaigning. Yes, he has already started for his re-election. Blech. Oh, he just happened to show up at the Lincoln Memorial after the 11th hour agreement on the budget vote, running around, glad handing, acting like he was the one who wrote the damn thing:

/ Bumped up . the good* reverend’s story got posted during the time we had trouble with comments appearing, so we’ve bumped her story up to ensure that you all get to comment (*she’s usually good but often naughty too)/ It is hard to believe that this oil spill in the Gulf is still continuing, [...]

Recently, Sec. Hillary Clinton made news by telling an Ecuadorean reporter that, sure enough, Obama plans to sue Arizona over its new law. Huh. That was news to Gov. Brewer. Nice way for her to find out for sure. But it begs the question, why. Why is Obama suing Arizona over its new law for [...]

By the BP oil spill crisis, and it is certainly worthy of our attention, don’t think things have stopped going on in Washington, DC. Actually, come to think of it, there is a connection between the BP oil crisis and one major issue in DC, the Obamacare program. That connection is – wait for it [...]

The Hopium Haze of Obama’s followers? Well, if Jon Stewart is an example, I’d have to say yes. Larry Johnson finally got me to start watching Stewart again after a long hiatus. The hiatus began when Stewart jumped on the Obama Sycophant Bandwagon. I was very disappointed that Stewart went that route, but he did. [...]

Hope remains that the Top Kill method currently employed by BP will finally, finally cap this horrible, devastating oil spill in the Gulf, though it is still uncertain. UPDATE: Sadly, BP has announced the Top Kill method is NOT working. Back to the drawing board and other possible strategies. for stemming the tide of oil [...]

Strange how everyone’s worse case scenarios seems to be turning into the most likely case scenarios. It’s hard not to feel like a captive audience forced to watch a slow motion perfect storm develop and unfold, but have no way of stopping it. Only left to wonder when and where it will end. The May [...]

Growing up as a city girl in the midwest, my introduction to and early education about crude oil and its impact on our society came through watching reruns of The Beverly Hillbillies. With every show, the opening spiel told the tale of the poor Clampetts’ discovery of oil on their land and the ensuing wealth they [...]

According to The Hill, Senator Lindsay Graham, who has been working with Senators John Kerry and Joe Leiberman for six months on Cap and Trade Legislation has walked away from the table as he… is upset over Democratic plans to take up immigration legislation this year – he accuses Democratic leaders of pushing forward immigration [...]

For those of you who thought Governor Sarah Palin would go quietly into that good night, think again. Her Op-Ed in today’s Washington Post strikes directly at the heart of President Obama’s cap and trade plans. She misses no opportunity to point out that his recovery plans are not exactly helping those in need, well, [...]

Well, you know I am not all that crazy about Hillary Clinton being the Secretary of State for Barack Obama because I do not trust him. As it is, he is already complicating her job by appointing a special Middle East Envoy who will report directly to HIM as opposed to the Secretary of State, [...]

Earlier today, Byron York, at his National Review blog, The Corner, reported on his assessment of Gov. Sarah Palin’s abilities as a debater, based on her performance during Alaska’s 2006 gubernatorial Republican primary race. York found a two-year-old video at C-Span of Sarah Palin debating the other two GOP primary candidates, Frank Murkowski, the incumbent [...]

Well, you got what you wanted: after 19 months of the most grueling campaign in history, we are left with a celebrity candidate of no qualifications whatsoever and the public at large doesn’t know any more about him now than the day he began. And we have the mainstream media to thank. Vetting, anyone? Pat [...]

Oh, dear. Obama’s firm stand against off-shore drilling? *POOF* GONE!!! Yep. What a guy! What a man of his word – NOT!! It was just a little over a month ago when Obama “Assailed” McCain on this very topic! Yes he did. I reckon “Backtrack Barack” is just going to flip or flop on every [...]
