we don’t have Sarah Palin as VP, what with the past gaffes with the British and all. Oh wait, that was Obama too.

One of the links in Nancy Morgan’s piece Our Public Servants At Work mentions an enormous natural gas field discovery in Louisiana. What I’m wondering is: will this put a crimp in Sarah Palin’s plan to build a natural gas pipeline from Alaska to the Lower 48? If this field drives down natural gas prices, then the cost-to-benefit ratio of building said pipeline drops as well.

Edinburgh, also served during WWII. He was in the British navy for the duration of the war and was present at the Battle of Crete and was “mentioned in despatches” as the British say.

This was a British, American and Canadian operation and that should be reflected in the ceremony.

Smart Power.

This is not good, but then again I think that this is BOs way of justifling the release of said photos

Perhaps the impending Conservative landslide in the UK will help mend the presently incompetent British-American relationship.

When I heard Obama today, I remembered that Reagan made a statement back when he was President, I did not know what he said it about I suppose I should research on the web.

I guess TOTUS forgot that he was channeling Reagan today in LA.

why the Obama birth certificate story won’t die.

Perhaps it’s because it’s being kept alive by Obama’s refusal to let the press have a look at the actual document.

The question is whether Obama wants the story to carry on as a distraction for Republicans, or if he really is trying to hide something. A guess, barring unlikely news regarding an unknown birth mother or non-US birth location, might be that it carries a notation such as “Religion: Moslem.” Meaningless, of course, but it would have been an embarrassment had it come out during the election, thus making it worth hiding.

I heard both Nina Easton and Rick Santorum use this phrase tonight, on separate Fox News programs. The meme runs, “Bush punted the decision for what to do with GM and Chrysler to Obama because he didn’t want their failure to happen on his watch. He tossed them some of the TARP money and left them for Obama to deal with.”

So it is therefore somehow Bush’s fault that GM and Chrysler are going bankrupt under Obama’s mismanagement. They ignore the fact that Bush only had a few months left in office at the time the auto industry imploded, and that he was up to his eyeballs in trying to keep the banking industry and Wall Street from caving in, which was a much bigger problem. It’s like blaming Clinton because he didn’t track down the USS Cole bombers before turning over the Oval Office to George W. Bush.

They also conveniently skipped any of their own suggestions as to what Bush should have done, rather than what he did. No mention of what he could have done that would have solved everything so that Obama couldn’t muck it up once he got into office.

Nina is a “journalist,” so she gets a pass. Nobody expects her to think analytically about these things (Berkeley PBK notwithstanding), nor to be particularly fair to Bush. But Rick should watch his tongue before absolving Obama from any blame in the mishandling of GM and Chrysler. He has one strike on him from his support for Specter. Now he has a second, for his thoughtless attempt to give Obama a pass at Bush’s expense.

the MSM keeps fomenting this straw man to cause us to draw our attention away from what Obama is doing. Stop it and move forward. I do not recall the MSM instigating this type of devision within the Democrat party when they were wiped out in 2000, 2002, 1994, and 2006. We’re feeding the frenzy and the alternate story line. Now attack the enemy.

Mostly a good trip, when Brit Libs weren’t protesting one thing or another. Sorry they banned Michael Savage. With all the radical bearded blokes now in their midst, he should be the least of their worries. And yeah, I’m annoyed that the Queen was told to ‘sod off’ by these mental lightweights. Slighting soldiers is his stock in trade, but Barry’s got no excuse. It’s not like he was raised in our rude American culture. He should know better.

I was also at Normandy right after the 60th anniversary of D-Day. The French couldn’t have been more rude. Especially when they figured out we were American tourists. Lovely country, lousy people. They’re also in real trouble, being assimilated and all, so let’s bid them adieu.

I’m really posting to let everyone know about another story. A Pharmacist here in Oklahoma is in real legal peril for shooting to death a robber at his store.

Apparently, he shot him too many times. That’s what it all comes down to. The Investigators say the robber was already down when the Pharmacist emptied 5 more rounds into him.

The Pharmacist hasn’t made a statement. Don’t know what kind of gun was used, or any of the details of the case. Maybe it was excessive, maybe not.

And they’re thinking about charging the Pharmacist with manslaughter. Justifiable homicide sounds more appropriate. He’s been ordered to give up his gun.

That’s all I know for now.
