Troll moderators can mod the post down, but it doesn't change the essential fact that we are about to see at least 4 years to hypocrisy and double standards.
Obama and his Chicago mob cronies ARE going to do things that if were done by Bush, would cause the left to go apoplectic. But there will be nary a word from the Left, or at worst, an expression of mild disappointment.
Get yer popcorn and sodas because the next 4 years will be a great show.
Oops!...well, scratch one Cabinet member. Richardson bowed out because he knew he was going to jail. What did they say in the eighties? Fish rots from the Head Down?
You know that these jokers never spend money collected for new roads and road maintenance on new roads and road maintenance. It all goes to the general fund to be pissed away on pet projects and socialists programs.
When they succeed driving everyone off the road, they'll dream up some other tax to replace it.
There was plenty of reliable means to get law enforcement involved. Congressional oversight committees that would kill for a chance to smack down Bush. Independent prosecuters (Fitzgerald anyone?)
No, he had ways to see that his concerns were addressed. He just didn't want to go to the trouble. he was "troubled" and "upset". Bullshit. He wanted to get Bush because he's an irrational, hysterical Bush Hater. DailyKOS, DemocraticUnderground, Alex Jones, take your pick.
From TFA: Tamm concedes he was also motivated in part by his anger at other Bush-administration policies at the Justice Department, including its aggressive pursuit of death-penalty cases and the legal justifications for "enhanced" interrogation techniques that many believe are tantamount to torture.
This guy was just another Bush Hater.
Any number of high level Senators (not some stupid aid) would have been estatic to listen to what he had to say, conduct classified hearings, and then work with the administration and pass appropriate laws. But he hated Bush and had to have a go at him in public. He had to take the authroity to make such a decisions away from the elected officials and vest it in himself.
If he wanted the wiretaps to stop, he failed, because congress passed laws that are pretty much the same as the Bush policies. What he did was stupid, reckless and a dangerous precedent. What if the next guy decides something should be made public because he disagrees with it and people end up getting killed or the national interest is significantly harmed in some way?
First, never quote dumbass reporters. They don't know shit.
Second, FannieMae and Mac bought bundled mortgages from private institutions. Private institutions were practically threatened with legal action by the Clinton Administration if they didn't lend to just about anyone. FanneMae and Mac said "it's alright, we'll buy them".
Third, if you think taking wealth by force from others is fine, then I suggest you retain a criminal attorny because you're gonna need one.
Turning FannieMae and FreddyMac into affirmative action lending institutions is what tanked the economy, no matter how much APNBCCBSABCCNNMSNBC wants you to think otherwise.
Regardless, Obama DID say he wanted to spread the wealth around. Which means he TAKES it by force from those who worked for it and gives it to others.
While a Personalized search is likely to give you results that would probably most interest you, it is also likely to exclude results that don't fit your "profile" but are relevant to what you are looking for.
So the search engine is always returning results it thinks you would like to see, but not results that you probably should see.
So then we should make rules and regulations saying they can't even try?
That's the whole point. No is saying we should force the oil companies to drill here. The argument is whether they should be allowed to do so if they choose.
Wind farm - KIlled by Ted Kennedy. Nukes - Killed by Sierra Club Solar - misc. "activists"
There are groups that have their own little agenda. No matter what the technology, there will be some greasy, smell hippy with his lawyer filing suit against it.
No one is saying that oil is not finite. But there is oil in the ground that can be recovered at costs that equate to far less than the $140 a barrel we recently saw.
Yes, it will become more and more difficult. Which is why we do need to invest in alternate energy sources. But the same dipshits that stand in the way of local oil production have and will stand in the way of alternate energy. .

Nuclear. No need to explain the war against nuclear. Wind. Ask Ted Kennedy. Ask everyone bitching about the bird and windmills. Solar- Just review the Slashdot to find a plethora of doomsaysers whining about the environmental costs of solar cells.
Everyone bitching about the people actually trying to produce energy. If they would spend half of their energy trying to actually accomplish something instead of whining all the time, we'd have no energy crises.

There would be riots in Berkley.
All the democrats in Congress would be "Outraged", whatever the hell that's supposed to mean.
Kieth Olberman and Mathews would have a stroke while on the air.
The late night comics would have entire routines built around it.
...then hell, why not?

Balance is when you get the facts without a ration of sanctimonious bullshit opinion.

I take it you don't have a problem with that.
Obama is the one who said "spread the wealth around."
You don't have to be a plumber to own a plumbing business.
You don't have to be a programmer or a computer engineer to own a computer business.
Apparently, you don't have to be objective and competent to be a journalist.

All journalists are whiny bitches and idiots to boot.
Fixed.
Yes, but unfortunately, the stupid far outweigh the brilliant
As the results of the last election proves beyond doubt.
So then we should make rules and regulations saying they can't even try?

$5 per barrel production costs plus untold billions in military, economic and diplomatic support.
And how much of that $25 - $30 of production costs is BS government regulations?
Enemy Groups of People.
Wind farm - KIlled by Ted Kennedy.
Nukes - Killed by Sierra Club
Solar - misc. "activists"

Boy, modded flamebait right out of the box.
Yeah...Walmart has it all WRONG.

Reporters are Idiots.
Just saying.
Well, having those ties really did them a lot of good there didn't it?
