He knew it and blew it; He knew the general health of the project and did nothing; but he could justify the exploration using the term, ‘National Security.’

‘Since no one can get down there in person, we know there’s a level of uncertainty,’ President Obama said.

So if you, as a reader or researcher, make a fervent effort to link activities, you’re liable to find the information available fifteen days ago using traditional search tools has disappeared along with the Gulf oil.

The story as we know, see and have verified:

The name Macondo is the same name as the fictitious cursed town in the novel “One Hundred Years of Solitude” by Colombian Nobel-prize winning writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Oil companies routinely assign code names to offshore prospects early in the exploration effort to helps ensure secrecy during the confidential pre-sale phases.

You will pay for Obama’s oil mess rather than BP because you are a taxpayer and the taxpayers always pay the bill. Always!

Why did it take until June 11th for the President to visit South Mississippi? When does the oil stop flowing? Who’s in charge? Why is there all the red tape for the governors of the affected states to go through to implement their solutions?

The reason is simple. President Obama has absolutely no management skills and failed to act as an executive would in a time of need. He failed to protect our borders and he allowed the people from three government agencies, EPA, Energy and Interior Departments, to continue failure. Maybe this job is way beyond his pay grade.

This week we were given eighteen minutes of a speech to the American people that was way past due. It took 57 days to “address“ us, that is about two months to speak to the people the government is supposed to be protecting. Is it me, or do you not feel very protected? And what about border protection? Our President is hanging with Paul McCartney, who feels so free to cut down our country and manages to tell us “ Obama is a good guy” and to give him a break? I am not dreaming, I wish I could say I am. Could it get worse than allowing a foreigner such a stage, a foreigner whose own country could use help to stop giving Islam such control over his country?

I for one, do not want this happening here.

We should be concerned about the illegal immigrants, not just from Mexico but foreign terrorists, as well.  If you are concerned you could go to www.americanborderpatrol.com. They need help. They need money, they need volunteers. This is a great site and there you will find more information.

For nearly a month now, President Obama has taken every opportunity to demonize the evil, greedy, capitalistic oil companies in response to the Gulf oil spill. Initially, there was no readily apparent method of blaming President Bush, but now the talking points have shifted to the “cozy relationship” between the Bush administration and the oil companies. . .as if this situation was somehow “new” starting in the year 2000. The only substantive thing President Obama has managed to say thus far is that “BP will be paying the bill.” Wouldn’t it be nice to have a President with the chutzpah and clarity of thought to say:

As Congress considered the Waxman-Markey “cap-and-trade” bill, President Obama rallied House Energy and Commerce Committee Democrats at the White House.  In making a point, he gestured to Abraham Lincoln’s portrait and said, “He had a chance to affect history.  You, too, have a chance to affect history.”

How ironic.

Lincoln is remembered for liberating blacks from slavery.  Cap-and-trade legislation supported by Obama, allied lawmakers and now the NAACP would, conversely, enslave all Americans.
