Uncle Hugo Chavez to double production , But Obama can not.
McCain was Bob Dole II… Not a chance in heck…The two lamest presidential candidates in my lifetime…
The Dead always turn out big for Democrats.
The Brain Dead as well as the Temporally Living Dead.
Just how many millions are waiting patiently in Cemeteries across the Nation to vote for Obama on Election Day?
@Sicilian Papa

It is not a matter of blaming green energy. The production of oil and gas is up on private land and way down on public land. The President and his hard left wackos in the EPA have been trying to limit production for four years. That is why gas is stuck at 4 bucks a gallon. Every time the economy starts to grow high fuel prices stunts it. The President and his people are directly responsible for this because they are committed solely to green energy. 90 billion in subsides for what? So his buddies in the green energy business can go belly up and steal taxpayer money. Another government run disaster.
————————-
It should be pointed out of the 90B Green Energy subsidies government handed out, it’s been spread throughout a large amount of time. Currrently we are at 30B of those 90B being dished out(ie roughly 10B a year). When Mitt Romney claimed half the companies went belly up what he failed to mention, that half to him means 3 companies out of 32(got to love Republican Math).
Our defense budget is close to 800B when you factor in wars, we dish out close to an equal amount of Big Oil substities that we do to Green Energy ones(because we know they are starving for the cash) but heaven forbid Obama tries to invest a little cash in a industry that will be be a big industry sooner or later, it’s a reason to bitch
Complaining about Green Energy Substities, much like complaining about Big Bird to me seems like a case of Penny Wise, Pound Foolish
I go away a couple of days and O is in the lead, I come back Romney is ahead, should I stay away awhile?
Wazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Up!

I am into it and it is hard to put down! It is a real shame that some (I will not mention any names) wont even gove the books a chance but then give it rotten reviews and comments. Killing Kennedy(10) is waiting for me as soon as I check in on the world and the local Sunday paper (it only takes about 8 minutes to get through now days!
)
I said it before and I will say it again CANT FIX STUPID!

Not much. My husband is in a golf tournament, so, I’m reading, too, but, about Andrew Jackson . One thing I never knew was that Jackson’s popularity was due in a large part to his policy of ethnic cleansing of the Native American Indians. The Civil War was not our country’s greatest class warfare struggle.

Biden Takes 6 Days Off Campaign Trail to practice & Obama is going to debate camp.
Coffee, are you going to Danville for the Vice presidential debate? I know you didn’t get a ticket in the lottery, but, didn’t know if you were going to hang around the edges.

@suiko, can you imagine sitting in a business meeting with a intelligent business men and women, and carry on about how the upcoming presidential election is going to change the daily operation, the market, and bottom line immediately. I’d fire the idiot, or expect to be fired if I talked like that in such a setting. It’s proof that either not much swings his way, or they were imaginary people.
I am now convinced that you are not a Realtor. As a Realtor you are a self employed small business. This entails planning, stratagizing, looking at impact from local, state, and federal goings on.
For yo to make this post you have now proved to all with the smallest brain how idiotic you really are! I really hate to brak this to you but depending on the outcome of this election businesses all over America will be pulling the trigger on there business plan the day after we have the decision. These plans are basded on meeting after meeting planning and planning.
Cant fix stupid!

Jeff said it was full of propaganda. Is it about his life.
I thought Bret Baier was suppose to be the news guy that was fair and balanced over at Fox News, until I read the upcoming show he’s going to have…..
Preview Bret Baier’s Fox News Reporting Special – ‘Behind Obama’s Green Agenda’
Does Obama have radical “green” roots? Bret Baier travels across America, revealing rogue regulators, tracing the truth about the president’s environmental agenda and exposing programs that could devastate our economy!
I might actually watch this. How dare we try to save our environment!
@Ratboy

I hope you are kidding? It’s already been torn apart for all the errors and fallacies that it has. It should only be taken as an entertaining, good read. Not history or facts.
Oh I forgot, all the book “haters” that are showing the fallacies are just liberal scums…my bad.
@
The lefties
Saving the planet, come n’ man, global warming…I’m sorry I don’t buy it. Not the man made global warming the left fears more than anything on earth. If things are bad as Al Gore says we can’t do anything about it anyway.
Follow the money and the politics on this one. This sounds like a con from the word go.
I support green energy because oil is dirty to burn. Clean energy would be healthier for all of us. It is still unclear if we can make it affordable.
I don’t support the government handing out billions when we are swimming in debt. Especially for cronies of the President. It doesn’t get any more corrupt than that. Only a Democrat could get away with this level of corruption. The corrupt lib. media is a nice poodle to own.
The good news is Romney blew the doors off this corruption in one sentence to the American people. The Chicago machine and the corrupt lib. media must hate the debates. Look for the left to do away with them.
Keep telling the public what the corrupt lib. media will not Mitt, two more debates
@d.d.
Coffee, are you going to Danville for the Vice presidential debate? I know you didn’t get a ticket in the lottery, but, didn’t know if you were going to hang around the edges.
I’m still calling people and things but at this point doesn’t look like I have much of a chance to get in. My wife hs family up there so I may hang out and see what happens. We are leaving next Friday evening so it’s possible we may just stay home and relax too.
We’re watching movies so I’ll be on and off
On the book, I thought everything was well documented myself, and the writing was excellent, it’s VERY hard to put down. (Unless the potty calls)
The next debate will feature the town hall meeting. Remember the guy in the ponytail. It went something like this, We need a father to lead us, will you be our father. The guy in the ponytail was an undecided voter?
This thing will be loaded with lefty questioners. They will try to make Romney look like Scrooge. Romney needs to answer with this, We are broke and it is not the roll of the government to buy your dog a cell phone.
The left will look to this debate to avenge President empty suits browbeating in the first one. Loading the audience with lefties fits perfectly.
Okay…the guy with the ponytail. He looked like a flash back to Woodstock.
@Sicilian Papa
Candy Crowley may lean left, and she does, but when it comes to these things, she can be a pit bull to both sides. She does take her job seriously. Now as for the questions, if she does the pickin, she will balance them out, but if she has help? Thats another dog to bark at.
Just remember folks, Obama may come out swingin, but Romney wants this job bad, he’s not exactly going to sit down and cry wolf. And now it’s not a question of Romney winning anymore, he already has, he just has to break even.
The champ is the one with pressure to succeed, not the challenger.
BBL…
