Simon,
And what is the big deal?
Did you read the book?
I can’t understand how people can complain about this when they drive their SUVs and Escalades around (or in some cases drive their limos and fly their private planes), can you answer this? I don’t think so.
I listened to Randi Rhodes today and wanted to pull her through the speaker and slap her. She was going on about this going to war for oil cr*p without telling the rest of the story.
See she forgot to tell the listeners that she and her party of dummies are as much to blame for the war as Bush, Cheny and anyone else for that matter. In other words, it is so simple that a blind man can see it the inability of the majority of people to think outside of the idiot box, worrying about OJ and Brittney, they don’t want to change, they enjoy being complacent in their life style without realizing that everything – I MEAN EVERYTHING has to do with OIL. Everything from food to diapers to the XM radio to the phone to what ever has to do with OIL – there is no exception to this rule. Our entire economy is based on OIL not corn or anything else.
SO how does going into Iraq have to do with OIL?
Well we are not there to steal the oil from the Iraqis but the intention was to remove one unstable problem and replace it with a democracy. I can’t stand the word but I will have to use it because it is closer to the truth than the billions that Exxon has made off the war. The problem is the dummies here don’t get the idea that the Iraqis idea of a democracy is different from ours and I remember the Air America/Moveon crowd complained about the fact that the Iraqis didn’t copy our constitution, included religion and don’t view democracy as we do.
See our enemies know what would hurt us, it is energy. They can kill us but remove our ability to move, buy or create – they got us – all of that takes energy. We allow ourselves to forget the attack on 9/11 then we tolerate people being caught trying to do something to us (you know that we have had other terrorist attacks on our soil since but the media and liberals don’t call them attacks, like the Muslim who went nuts at the Jewish center screaming he will kill all the Jews or how about the Muslims who were caught with pipe bombs and other stuff to kill people maybe it is time we demand that our universities stop accepting foreigners in our schools?) but we don’t want to change the most fundamental thing that would protect us – our energy.
I am trying to pull my non-profit together again, alone without help, and I m hitting this wall. No one cares about this issue, they want to complain about something in their lives and when something happens, they are the first to cry about it. I am dumping my money into getting something started to help but no one is interested.
Why don’t you help us out with the energy issue if you are so passionate the political issue? Start with being involved with the politics of your state, get together with people and demand the state to help people buy solar panels or cutting back on state business by having people drive less.
Many people can’t see the correlation between terrorism, Iraq, our economy and OIL and many more don’t allow themselves to understand the big picture and how they can change things – you libs, don’t give to Obama or hillary or God help you Edwards, take that money and put it to use by working with people who will invest it in things like wind power or CSA? Think about this, the amount of money these three have raised so far can provide a lot of things to help us out and this is only their primary election money.
Did anyone catch the flying nun and her comment about the war at the ememies?
