Obama’s Cesspool of Politics First
President Obama’s image of leadership flounders in the Gulf of Mexico. While Governor Jindal displays the true qualities of leadership, our president is stuck in Saul Alinksy gear, demonizing a foreign corporation instead of actually doing anything constructive. Disgust at Obama’s genuine incompetence at this genuine ecological disaster stretches across party lines and the ideological spectrum.
Barry blames Bush for everything about our dismal economy. A partisan rubber-stamp Congress has given Obama the wild and wasteful expenditures which his childish, failed, quasi-Keynesian witches’ brew prophesies will spend us into prosperity. It hasn’t worked. Now, oddly, congressmen facing electoral apocalypse have stopped writing our wise leader a blank check against the federal treasury.
Wearing the hat of Commander in Chief, Obama explicitly sought a general in sync with his plan to end the war in Afghanistan. Then, when General McChrystal snickered too publicly at Obama’s cartoon leadership, the president replaced him with the old Bush team — the man Obama and his pals three years ago were calling “General Betray Us.” Does this cause a “willing suspension of disbelief” in Obama?
The nomination of radical leftist women to the Supreme Court simply reinforces the image of Obama as a closet Marxist. His cabinet choices reinforce this image of radicalism. The American people, during Obama’s administration, profess to be conservative — and increasingly conservative according to Gallup, a poll that already shows that conservatives outnumber liberals in every single state of the Union.

What Is Going On in Europe?
It is often said that the Jews are the canary in the coalmine. When the Jews feel compelled to leave, the light of freedom is being extinguished. Something is badly wrong when the police need to deploy “decoy Jews.” Once again, the specter of anti-Semitism is haunting Europe. If the Europeans do not stand with the Jews, they deserve no freedom themselves and cities such as Amsterdam and Antwerp will soon be Islamic cities.

Obama Creates Jobs – in Brazil
Captain Kickass is finally getting around to creating jobs. The only problem is they will be in Brazil. Now that Obama has decided to shut all oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, the rigs will move off-shore to Brazil – where some of them will drill DEEPER than the BP rig was drilling when it exploded 55 days ago:
Reuters reported, via Free Republic:
Brazil could benefit from the BP Gulf of Mexico spill as a U.S. moratorium on offshore drilling boosts available rigs for the country’s deep water oil exploration program.
Even as an ecological catastrophe makes the future of U.S. offshore drilling less certain, Brazil is plowing ahead with a $220 billion five-year plan to tap oil fields even deeper than BP’s (BP.L) ill-fated Gulf well, which is still leaking crude.
With an estimated 35 rigs idled in the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil is already receiving inquiries from companies looking to move their rigs here, where vast discoveries in recent years may soon turn the country into a major crude exporter.
“What is bad for some may be good for others,” said Fernando Martins, Latin America Vice President for GE Oil and Gas, which provides services to drillers in Brazil.
“Since operators are shutting down at least temporarily in the U.S. Gulf, some companies are planning to move their rigs to Brazil now,” he said, without offering details.
Palin 101: How To Kick Ass
Sarah Palin lets Barak Obama have it after his sissy attempt to look butch and tough to BP excutives – who he has yet to face after 50 days of the Gulf Oil Spill disaster. Take a lesson from Sarah, Barry. This is how ass is kicked. She makes it look eeeaasy…

Less Talkin. More Kickin
50 days in, and we’ve just learned another shocking revelation concerning the Obama administration’s response to the Gulf oil spill. In an interview aired this morning, President Obama admitted that he hasn’t met with or spoken directly to BP’s CEO Tony Hayward. His reasoning: “Because my experience is, when you talk to a guy like a BP CEO, he’s gonna say all the right things to me. I’m not interested in words. I’m interested in actions.”
First, to the “informed and enlightened” mainstream media: in all the discussions you’ve had with the White House about the spill, did it not occur to you before today to ask how the CEO-to-CEO level discussions were progressing to remedy this tragedy? You never cease to amaze. (Kind of reminds us of the months on end when you never bothered to ask if the President was meeting with General McChrystal to talk about our strategy in Afghanistan.)

More Bad News for Louisiana
Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal and Senator David Vitter are now pleading with the Obama administration to stop with the destruction of the gulf states. As if the oil spill washing into the marshes and on shore is not bad enough – Obama now wants to make a horrible situation worse by imposing an offshore drilling moratorium. Such a move will cost Louisiana thousands of jobs in drilling, along with thousands more that are already affected by the collapse of the fishing and tourism industries.
To show a modicum of concern, Obama finally went to take a look at oil on shore last week –- weird, yes. Bet you didn’t know “there were golf courses near the Gulf.”
Alas, it won’t work now that a backlash is building against the new offshore drilling moratorium, which some argue the dems will try to make permanent. “The order to idle 33 deepwater rigs could sideline as many as 7,000 highly paid rig workers and cost four to five times as many support jobs at catering, service boat and drilling supply companies, the oil and gas association said.”
