Obama Suckered By North Korean Dwarf |
Scott at
Powerline blog says the
underground nuclear test announced by North Korea appears to come as
something of a surprise to Obama. Yet he has acted with nothing but complacency about the nuclear
programs of North Korea and Iran. In a May 20 Wall Street Journal
column, former United States Ambassador to the United Nations John
Bolton predicted:
The curtain is about to rise again on the
long-running nuclear tragicomedy, "North Korea Outwits the United
States." Despite Kim Jong Il's explicit threats of another nuclear test,
U.S. Special Envoy Stephen Bosworth said last week that the Obama
administration is "relatively relaxed" and that "there is not a sense of
crisis." They're certainly smiling in Pyongyang.
Ambassador
Bolton found that Bosworth and his colleagues were providing the North
Koreans with nothing but encouragement:
Despite Pyongyang's
aggression, Mr. Bosworth has reiterated that the U.S. is "committed to
dialogue" and is "obviously interested in returning to a negotiating
table as soon as we can." This is precisely what the North wants:
America in a conciliatory mode, eager to bargain, just as Mr. Bush was
after the 2006 test.
I think it's safe to say they're smiling in
Tehran (or should I say "the Islamic Republic of Iran"?) too.
Remember this? -- "Mark my
words," Biden said. "It will not be six months before the world tests
Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy." Expanding on his
thought, Biden sought to impress his point on the audience: "Remember I
said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said.
Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to
test the mettle of this guy."
And it didn't take 6 months -- only
125 days.

The Birth Certificate Protection Act |
A bill
approved by the House of Representatives and referred to the Senate
would prohibit federal employees of executive branch from being
compelled to release any document unless a court makes a specified
determination by a preponderance of evidence -- legislation at least one
group suspects is designed to protect Barack Obama's elusive birth
certificate from release.
The legislation, H. R. 985, resides in
the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Sovereignty Alliance has issued
a "red alert" about the bill it calls "stealth legislation ... to
protect Obama from providing his birth certificate."
"It
wouldn't surprise me a bit if this were one of the intended consequences
of this legislation," said Joseph Farah, who last week initiated a
national billboard campaign to bring attention to the issue of Obama's
missing birth certificate and what it might say about his claim to be a
"natural born citizen," a status necessary to serving in the White
House.
"In any case, this bill puts the lie to this
administration and this Congress being the most ethical and transparent
in American history," Farah said. "They're very open when it comes to
the secrets of previous administrations, but when it comes to their own
work, it is shrouded in secrecy. Even Obama's birth certificate
and student records are well-guarded state secrets."

Bibi Tells Obama To Take A Dudley |
Prime
Minister Binyamin Netanyahu
vowed at the
Mercaz HaRav yeshiva in Jerusalem Thursday night that the Israeli flag
will continue to fly over the Western Wall (Kotel). The first
prime minister in years to appear at the venerable yeshiva on Yom
Yerushalayim (Jerusalem Day), he ignored Barack Obama’s apparent trial
balloon that he wants to see the United Nations flag fly over the Old
City holy sites.
Jordan’s King Abdullah II said the president put
forward the proposal during his visit to the White House last month.
Prime Minister
Netanyahu declared, "The flag that flies over the Kotel is the Israeli
flag... Our holy places, the Temple Mount -- will remain under
Israeli sovereignty forever."... |

Top Red's Dream Comes True |
With Obama as
president, health care and the economy can be "reformed," U.S. troops
can be evacuated from the Middle East, a second stimulus bill can be
passed, the criminal justice system can be overhauled and union rights
can be expanded -- in other words, it's a Christmas list come true --
declared the leader of the Communist Party USA.
"All these --
and many other things -- are within our reach now," exclaimed Sam Webb,
in a New York banquet speech for the People's Weekly World, the official
newspaper of the Communist Party USA.
Webb's speech was
entitled, "The impossible becomes possible."
Webb declared that
under Obama, "We can dream again, knowing that the gap between our
dreams and reality is bridgeable."
"I am confident the American
people in their millions -- reeling under the weight of this terrible
economic crisis and yearning for a more decent, equal, peaceful and just
world -- will follow their example and turn this country into a more
perfect union," stated Webb.

Obama Is Wrong About Energy |
So far the score card, in
my
opinion, is not too pretty for the Messiah. He is wrong on Afghanistan,
wrong on Gitmo, wrong in taking over Chrysler and General Motors,
obviously wrong on the Banks as they all want to give the money back,
wrong on trying to push unproductive Unions down our throats, wrong on
who is supplying weapons to Mexican drug cartels, wrong on many aspects
of healthcare, wrong to apologize to the Mexicans, Europeans, and
Muslims in the name of all Americans, and now; he is spitting into the
wind with a fantasy of going green with energy.
As the rest of
the world is careening as fast as the wind toward nuclear power our
visionary leader (pun intended) is wedded to ideas that the rest of the
world (even those he apologized to on our behalf) had been there done
that and moved on, or are trashing it as we speak. Actually I don’t
think Obama can even utter the word nuclear; it never comes out of his
mouth you see.
In a recent speech to Congress the Messiah
pointed to China, Germany and Japan and three forward thinking countries
that are leading the United States in developing renewable energy. Wrong! Just like the weapons used by the Mexican Cartels and his
statistics on the connection between healthcare and bankruptcy, this is
totally false and pulled right out of some fantasy land.
China
is a coal digging, coal burning, cogeneration, coal liquefaction country
primarily. They are the biggest polluter of carbon-dioxide in the world. They will continue to be far into the future. According to the Beijing
State Electricity Council, their renewable energy production is
miniscule and in fact as declined over the last two years. There is hope
though for China but it ain’t in the direction Obama would lead us to
believe. China intends to increase its already significant nuclear power
production over the next 10 years by 8 time’s current production.
Japan produces a lot of solar panels; panels primarily for export! Only 3% of their energy is renewable energy and it is heavily subsidized
by the government. Their plan is to boost their nuclear power production
from a current 30% to nearly 50% over the next 10 years.
In the
Messiah’s world I guess Germany would be a valid example of going green
if it was sustainable and if they were not dismantling a great deal of
it at this time. The currently generate 15% of their energy through
renewable sources. As it turns out Germany has neither much sun nor much
wind and renewable energy companies are mostly on the government dole at
a huge expense to the country. Sounds Obama-like with some sort of thing
they call a "feed-in-tariff" whereby the producers are guaranteed a
price 7 times higher than the wholesale rate for the next 20 years. The
German electricity bill went up 38% in one year in 2007. And the Germans
have discovered that renewable energy is very inefficient in all
respects thus it will always be tremendously costly compared to other
forms of power.
And what about the Obama fantasy called
cap-and-trade which is also a disaster in Europe. According to Alex Alexiev, an adjunct fellow at the Hudson Institute in Washington D.C.,
"four years after its introduction, the EU carbon trading scheme has
failed to create a functioning emissions permit market, to generate
revenues, or to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions as promised…..but lead
to large increases in the price of electricity." Mr. Alexiev further
states, "The bottom line is that for the foreseeable future renewable
energy will remain a pie-in-the-sky green fantasy, not feasible
economically without huge public subsidies."
And my God, once
again I am agreeing with the French! They generate 80% of their energy
from nuclear power. Italy, Sweden, Great Britain, Ukraine, Russia,
Poland, Finland, Lithuania, Bulgaria and Romania all have major plans to
grow their penetration in nuclear power significantly over the next 10
years. Did I mention India and China? Same for the both of them as well! It seems that solar panels and wind turbines are not in their plans!
As Mr. Alexiev stated, "this leaves the United States in the
unenviable position of being the only major economic power led by a
president dogmatically wedded to yesterday’s make-believe universe of
green energy that has already been debunked by reality in the rest of
the world. If Obama’s dubious energy agenda is rammed through Congress,
as seems likely, not only are Americans going to be saddled with a
crushing tax burden…….the country’s economic competitiveness could
suffer lasting if not irreparable damage!" |
