Don't buy into the oil "crisis" just yet...

I'm not buying all this OIL OH MY GOSH CHICKEN LITTLE IS FALLING OUT OF THE SKY bit just yet. Oil prices above $100 a barrel? Really? You mean to tell me we've consumed that much more oil in the past year & a half? Let's consider some recent history regarding oil & the prices that are being set for it.

First of all, back in 2008, oil speculators drove the price up to about $150 a barrel, for reasons a financial layman such as myself still have yet to fully understand. What I do recall is that the economy went into the tank, leaving no room for gasoline (pun intended).

What was the result? America began naturally to scale back, and SUBSTANTIALLY I might add. Oil investors & producers were being being left with oil GLUTS. In other words, there were plenty of available barrels of oil WITH NO ONE TO BUY THEM.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out what happens to a commodity that loses demand when market forces take over. Oil dropped to almost $30 a barrel in the next several months. America chose to pass on high oil prices in large quantities.

Let's keep in mind, prior to all of this, prior to the start of the Iraq & Afgahn wars, European corporatists invested in oil were profiting on the backs of oppressed Iraqis for $11 A BARREL. How was this possible? Syria was funneling black market oil from countries like Iraq for people like Soros to then turn around & sell for almost 4 times their price! European corporatists were a bit pissed off when we invaded Iraq, to say the least. This must be payback.

Back to the present. America's oil consumption HAS NOT INCREASED SUBSTANTIALLY since the $30 a barrel price drop. The world, in fact, is going thru one recession after another, just like we are.And how did OPEC react? "We're going to DROP oil production to offset reduced consumption." Oil gluts ARE STILL OCCURRING TODAY.

Reduced oil production means reduced workforce, and reduced work hours. THAT'S what's contributing to the unrest in the Middle East. America is nowhere near consumption levels of 4 or more years ago, and combined with recent inflation of basic goods (Thanks Geithner & QE2), has caused hunger & poverty of epic proportions. Foreign oil barons are willing to let production suffer to offset losses attributed to recession & the Iraq war.

We're experiencing an oil price "shell game". The fact is we're all at the mercy of foreign oil corporatists (and a virtually non-existent shelf-life), that want to keep the barrel of oil at a exorbitantly above-market price. They have stored oil that they refuse to sell for less than a determined price, are willing to put employment for oil production out to pasture to do so. "Quantitative easing" only contributes to the idea of accepting oil at a $150+ a barrel price range as the norm. We're being punished for defending the innocent in Iraq, not just by our own liberals, but by oil fascists abroad.

We need to keep our wits about us. This is a game we can win, this is still America. Get Obama out and send the oil fascists with him.

CPAC got what it deserved ... and then some

The new and improved CPAC gave way to a whole lot of entertainment, not unlike a circus show that strolled into town.

What do I mean? Well, 1st off, let's take for example how they recklessly snubbed their longtime religious support by allowing groups such as GOProud entry. While I'm not any-phobic, the idea that a group is formed based on what is, for all intents and purposes, a non-natural behavior, is incompatible with authentic conservatism, and has no true foundation.

Also, the Ron Paul-ers ruined the evening. They couldn't wait to jeer & mock Donald Rumsfeld &, by default, Dick Cheney, making for a mockery of the entire event. It got to the point that longtime Hillary Clinton supporter Donald Trump (& maybe liberal mole) had to tell the Paul-ers their candidate is "unelectable". It seems appropriate that Trump's somewhat clownish character on TV was appropriate for this year's CPAC.

Add to the fact that they scheduled, and I think intentionally, their event directly opposite NASCAR media day. I know some will say "why does that matter?" It matters because while CPAC is entertaining anti-family groups such as GOProud, they are snubbing REAL FAMILIES that want to spend time doing something wholesome with their children, CPAC need not apply.

Why did this happen? Ignorance. I'm watching many conservatives make the same mistakes that brought us a Democrat majority & an Obama victory. You can't snub traditional support to try to "big tent" yourself with fringe political groups like the Ron Paul-ers, GOProud & the pro-aborters.

We have a fractured coalition of alarmists too! We have the Glenn Beck alarmists vs. the Ron Paul/Alex Jones conspiracy theorists. Wonderful! I can't wait to big tent myself with the mothership!

Mind you, none of this is a good sign for a relationship with the Tea Party. Tea Party folks are family oriented. If this is what the GOP thinks will win them 2012, I got news for you: the Tea Party will abandon you in a heartbeat. If this keeps up, we will have a whole lot of 3 way races, mark my words.

There are two groups driving this movement: former liberals & libertarians that have had there eyes opened recently, & wet-behind-the-ears young-uns (some that get their paychecks from the GOP establishment). Their purpose for this event was more about their personal need for social interaction than truly advancing conservative causes.

I even had a friend tell me "THESE ARE HARD CORE CONSERVATIVES!" Really? Where was Rush Limbaugh? Mark Levin? Sean Hannity? Did Ronald Reagan get honest mention? Yeah OK. This was more like a loony libertarian freak show. This is what happens when you let "new conservatives" run the show. They revert to trying to bring in all the groups that either willfully or ignorantly wind up voting Democrat.

So there you have it. Let's try to make CPAC12 about CONSERVATISM instead of BIGTENTISM shall we?

Will the REAL Egypt please stand up?

It turns out, after all this time, that the stories of the "Muslim takeover" of Egypt, "Persian invasion", Ahmedinjad, Iran, blah blah blah, are nothing more than media hype.

They are Obama media creations, something that we should be getting used to by now, but somehow we seem to think CNN FOX NBC CBS ABC are in the truth business. We need to get used to the fact that every BIG story by our media is a LIE, a big fat LIE, every day, all the time.

The REAL Egypt, as it turns out, is nothing at all like we're being "cattle fed". The real story is about Government eltitlements! See here: http://bit.ly/dEyuN5

Hosni Mubarak, at the behest of his wife (even he was reluctant to the idea), was grooming his son, Gamal Mubarak, as successor, while Egyptian army commanders were vacationing in WASHINGTON DC, As if this story can get any more suspicious towards Obama.

I'm just now reading that Anderson Cooper was "attacked" by pro-Mubarak protesters. How staged is this?

Something is amiss, and Obama has a lot to answer for ...
