Annoying the Trolls
Some tiny brained liberal has been posting all sorts of comments about this being a hang out for Tea Party types and how Obama is "the one" who has saved this country from ruin. We know many of our readers don't really give a crap about this sort of thing, but we like to tweak the trolls every so often.
We just want to point out the following:
We just want to point out the following:
- While the BP oil geyser pumps millions of gallons of petroleum into the Gulf of Mexico, President Barack Obama and members of Congress may have to answer for the millions in campaign contributions they’ve taken from the oil and gas giant over the years.
BP and its employees have given more than $3.5 million to federal candidates over the past 20 years, with the largest chunk of their money going to Obama, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.
Wait a minute....
Oil is bad. Oil is the source of all evil. Right? Bush and Cheney give passes to the Oil Companies all the time. So who gave BP's Deepwater Horizon rig a pass?

The Interior Department exempted BP’s calamitous Gulf of Mexico drilling operation from a detailed environmental impact analysis last year, according to government documents, after three reviews of the area concluded that a massive oil spill was unlikely.
The decision by the department’s Minerals Management Service (MMS) to give BP’s lease at Deepwater Horizon a “categorical exclusion” from the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) on April 6, 2009 — and BP’s lobbying efforts just 11 days before the explosion to expand those exemptions — show that neither federal regulators nor the company anticipated an accident of the scale of the one unfolding in the gulf.
Gee, who was president on 06 April 2009? Using the media's sliding scale of blame, that would seem to mean that Obama is not only responsible for the Gulf disaster, he probably swam under the rig himself and jammed the shut off valve on the sea floor.
And this from Obama's biggest supporter, the New York Times:
And this from Obama's biggest supporter, the New York Times:
Yet a review of the response suggests it may be too simplistic to place all the blame for the unfolding environmental catastrophe on the oil company. The federal government also had opportunities to move more quickly, but did not do so while it waited for a resolution to the spreading spill from BP.
[...] Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano acknowledging even as late as Thursday afternoon that she did not know if the Defense Department even had equipment that might be helpful.
For the record, the Defense Department had (and still has) a shitload of equipment available for this type of work.
Helluva job there Jannie.

Lets make the libs even more unhappy...
GLENN BECK IS RIGHT ABOUT THE LEFT!!!!
And...
The lib talkers on TV and the radio are left wing, bomb-throwing nutjobs who traffic in hate speech and racism!!!
the second coming is a one term president!no more white guilt.
Obama is the biggest liar in US presidential history!!!! He is the biggest fraud put upon the whole globe ever.
I was watching a crazy documentary the other day about Obama. Though the creators seem to be whack jobs , they pointed lie after lie after lie that Obama has told the USA and the rest of the world. The lies they pointed out were all true.
See, here's the thing.... BP says that they are responsible for everything. The well, the spill, the cleanup. The fisherman that aren't allowed to fish have been hired by BP to help them navigate through the waters because BP says they know the waters and they can help. Each boat gets $1,200.
So.... BP says it is al on them BUT you know who is going to pay for it in the long run. We, the consumer will pay for it. That is just the way it works.
I just wonder why BP don't lower prices when the don't have disasters so they can reward the consumer?
My 2¢.
So, now they can't just blame Bush for being an OIL MAN. BP in a This for That, regarding off shore drilling and OBama is unethical for taking contributions in exchange for drilling.
Don't forget all the Islamic/Arabic organizations who contributed to OBama's election $$$ and Iran is talking tough against the U.S.
What church service did he attend over Easter?
I wonder if OBama will be playing basketball this year during LEO memorial. Bush never missed LEO memorial, but he liked the police.
O-one

A-merica !!!!!!!!!!!
I can see November from my house!
Fuck Obama!
For the first item in 29 years, the time for the National Police Memorial at the Capital has been changed from 1200 hrs to 1100 hrs. According to the National FOP website, this is due to the schedule of the speakers and guests. Since when did the social agenda of the speakers mean more then the needs of the families and officers gathered to honor their fallen!? This is going to be a HUGE cluster fuck! This press release just came out yesterday. I find it a wee bit hard to believe that every law enforcement officer in Washington (usually around 20,000 plus), will be aware of this change. I don't believe it will be to allow Obamass to speak. Last year, he was too busy taking a photo op in the Rose Garden with the World Series Champs. Gosh, must have taken at least 15-25 minutes! Love him or hate him, George W. took time at every memorial, to go into the audience and speak to EVERY family member. Made for a long afternoon for us, but it meant a HELL of a lot to the heroes families. God bless him! I hope all those attending get the message about the time change. I called our FOP this morning and asked if they could contact the Supt's office and have a mass e-mail sent to all members regarding the change. They did and it was done. However, I don't know why they did not think of this! Please spread the word to anyone from any agency that might need to know. Hope to see everyone in D.C.!

Give President Obama a break. He had a very important meeting with a sports team last year. Maybe he can make it this year.

Isn't there a distinct plan in place for disasters so that millions of gallons of oil don't spill into the ocean? This is crazy, what is taking them so long to cap this thing? I hope the gov. plans on throwing a hefty fine on BP because it is now devastating the gulf....the environment, the people who work there and the birds,fish, animals, etc.
