Friday Fume

I gotta tell ya, this last week has left my HEAD spinning!

I’m beginning to see a pattern too. The closer we get to the election…Week by week…The deeper into insanity the liberals go.

I suppose desperation could be driving them to the edge but seriously, do they need to take the rest of us along for the ride??

Well, it IS Friday and…

I’m fuming.

The GSA…a VALUABLE government agency, basically in charge of not wasting our money has been…

WASTING OUR MONEY!!!

Turns out these YAHOOS spent almost a MILLION dollars on a conference in HENDERSON Nevada. $4.00 shrimp, $14.00 breakfasts…$75,000.00 on a seminar on how to assemble a bicycle…

THEY HAD A CLOWN AND…A MIND READER…WHO APPARENTLY NEVER SAW TROUBLE COMMIN’!!!!!

Now, to be fair, this isn’t JUST the liberals…THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A LONG TIME but seriously, should the government agency in charge of making sure the government doesn’t waste the people’s money REALLY employ…12,500 PEOPLE???

Now, if it wasn’t bad enough…THEY MADE A VIDEO MAKING FUN OF HOW THEY GET TO WASTE OUR MONEY AT THEIR HAWAII OFFICE!!! And if THAT isn’t bad enough…

Obama is No Beethoven

It has been said that, “A lie can travel halfway round the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.” It has also been said that the above quote came from Mark Twain. That, in and of itself, may well be a lie as it seems more probable that the quote came from Charles Haddon Spurgeon; but aside from this, what of Spurgeon do we know or, for that matter, care.

Regardless of the origin, the quote is true but only up to a point.

It describes but the beginning of the race. Truth, eventually, wins the day because the lie, eventually, stumbles.

As for Twain, a voluminous liar in practice, he did have something to say on the matter.

The glory which is built upon a lie soon becomes a most unpleasant encumbrance. How easy it is to make people believe a lie, and how hard it is to undo that work again!”

“Almost all lies are acts, and speech has no part in them.”

I am different from Washington; I have a higher, grander standard of principle. Washington could not lie. I can lie, but I won’t.”

Twain, indeed had a great deal to say regarding the practice or art of the lie, but perhaps my favorite is this:

Obama on Solyndra…Not Whisker of Truth

My, oh my, but aren’t liberals enlightened? Aren’t they intellectual?

The liberal’s new favorite adverb is…

Per se.

Liberals are SO enlightened and SO intellectual that they, at the drop of a hat, now speak Latin.

Joe Biden…an intellectual giant if ever one existed, stated last December that, “the Taliban per se is not our enemy.” Of course, that non, “per se” enemy is the very non “per se” enemy who have been raising all sorts of hell and has recently murdered 6 U.S. soldiers over burned Korans.

Now, as of yesterday, Obama jumped in.

“Obviously, we wish Solyndra hadn’t gone bankrupt. Part of the reason they did was because the Chinese were subsidizing their solar industry and flooding the market in ways that Solyndra couldn’t compete. But understand: This was not our program, per se. Congress — Democrats and Republicans — put together a loan guarantee program because they understood historically that when you get new industries, it’s easy to raise money for startups, but if you want to take them to scale, oftentimes there’s a lot of risk involved, and what the loan guarantee program was designed to do was to help start up companies get to scale.”

One can only suspect that the same reality of our “per se not” our enemy can easily be applied to “not our program, per se.”

Doing the Liberal Hocus Pocus

14 percent. That, according to a recent survey, is the number of people who strongly agree that Obama is handling the gas price issue well. 14 percent.

Who ARE those people? How much Kool Aid are THEY drinking and WHAT are they smoking?

65 percent disapprove; and of that 65 percent, 52 percent disapprove STRONGLY. Heck, 59 percent disapprove of Obama’s handling of the economy. 50 percent disapprove of Obama’s handling of the economy strongly.

In nearly every campaign appearance, Obama pats himself on the back for his own handling of the gas price situation but the spinning is starting to make people dizzy. That’s because in nearly every campaign appearance, Obama is taking both sides of the issue.

No surprise, it’s what liberals do but apparently, there ARE 14 percent of people who are completely unable to see through it.

Here’s how the liberal double spin works.

Obama and his liberal/socialist lemmings tell us that oil and gas are the energy sources of the past. They’re old hat, obsolete, passé, and as hip as an 8 track tape. We hear that over and over again.

Obama and his liberal/socialist lemmings also tell us that, “We can’t just drill our way out of the problem.” We hear THAT over and over too, don’t we?

Obama and his liberal/socialist lemmings have been telling us that even if we WERE to drill here drill now, it would take 10 to 15 years for any oil produced to have a positive effect on the economy. In fact, Obama aside, liberal/socialists have been using THAT line for more than 2 decades.

Friday Fume

Well here we are at the end of another week of liberal stupidity.

While we can vote ’em out in November, we will never be able to fix stupid, so we might as well get used to ’em. I’ve found, if you take it all too seriously, without providing yourself a way to vent, liberals will drive you insane.

Join me, won’t you, in our weekly review with an attitude and LET IT OUT!!!

It’s Friday, and guess what?

Yep.

I’m fuming.

Liberals…Good grief…

In Colorado, a week ago, THEIR Governor, one John Hickenlooper, introduced his Lieutenant Governor, one Joe Carcia as a…

SEX STAR…

To an audience of…

SCHOOL CHILDREN!!!!!!!

Yeah, that’s just plain liberal stupid, isn’t it? One has NO idea WHAT Hickenlooper was THINKING but after THIS week’s introduction…

WE HAVE A PRETTY GOOD IDEA WHAT OL’ HICKENLOOPER IS THINKING…ABOUT!!!

Just a few days ago…Hickenlooper was introducing Denver Mayor…one…Mike…HANCOCK…I can’t make this stuff up, folks…

Apparently, Hancock’s wife…Mary Louise, is something of a singer and…trying to impress…the assembled audience…Hickenlooper made some reference to Obama singing to Michelle…in the SHOWER and introduced HANCOCK with THIS obtuse line…

STEP RIGHT UP FOR OL’ DOC OBAMA’S MIRACLE CURE

So…Obama now thinks algae is the answer to high gas prices. Algae. Is that going to be sold by the gallon or the pound? It’s important to know because I want to know if I calculate miles per gallon or miles per pound.

Pond scum.

Algae or Obama…Your choice.

We’re making new investments in the development of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel that’s actually made from a plant-like substance, algae – you’ve got a bunch of algae out here. If we can figure out how to make energy out of that, we’ll be doing alright. Believe it or not, we could replace up to 17 percent of the oil we import for transportation with this fuel that we can grow right here in America.

Pond scum.

Obama now says oil is a thing of the past. It’s passé, old hat, yesterday’s news.

“We’re not going to be able to just drill our way out of the problem of high gas prices. Anybody who tells you otherwise either doesn’t know what they’re talking about or they aren’t telling you the truth.”

So…WE’RE not going to be able to drill OUR way out of the problem of high gas prices.

Really.

The Price of Gas is Causing Heartburn

Let’s talk about the price of gas, shall we? I mean, why not? Everybody ELSE is.

It’s going up.

There are many reasons for this.

Circumstances in the Middle East, Iran embargoing oil to Europe and England have oil speculators…speculating and whenever they do THAT…The price of a barrel goes UP. The prospect of war between Israel and Iran is also fueling higher oil prices.

The price ALWAYS goes up in the summer month because of the differing blends mandated by the EPA. Those blends can also vary from state to state but in FEBRUARY??? Gas prices have NEVER been this high in FEBRUARY which means, by the time it’s time for the summer blends, the price will go even HIGHER.

Of course, as the price of gas climbs, so too will the prices of everything else.

Socks? Price is gonna go up. Food? Up, up, up. Auto parts? Yep…Up. You name it and the price is going to rise because of gas prices. Everything you buy has to get from where it’s made to where you buy it and if the cost of transporting your Chinese manufactured socks is going up, so is the price of the socks.

There is a great deal of focus, right now, on the nixed Keystone XL Pipeline.

Friday FUME

Oh my goodness…it can’t be Friday already can it?

Yep…and just like we do every Friday, we ‘re about to look back at the week that was.

Friends…Patriots…

It’s FRIDAY and…

I’m fuming!!

2 weeks ago, right here in the FUME, I told you about the FDA and how they have labeled DIAMOND WALNUTS as DRUGS!!!

Well…

Now the FDA has some MORE news for you…

YOUR OWN BODY IS A DRUG AND THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO REGULATE IT!!!

“Stem cells, like other medical products that are intended to treat, cure, or prevent disease, generally require FDA approval before they can be marketed. At this time, there are no licensed stem cell treatments.”

Court documents have been filed BY THE FDA which state:

1)      Stem cells are drugs and therefore fall within their jurisdiction.

2)      The clinic is engaging in interstate commerce and is therefore subject to FDA regulation because any part of the machine or procedure that originates outside Colorado becomes interstate commerce once it enters the state. Moreover, interstate commerce is substantially affected because individuals traveling to Colorado to have the Regenexx procedure would depress the market for out-of-state drugs that are approved by FDA.”

This is all because of a clinic in Colorado that does stem cell treatments to ease joint pain.

THE FDA COULDN’T BRING THEMSELVES TO STOP AT WALNUTS NOW THEY HAVE TO TRY AND REGULATE…YOU!!! IT’S INSANE!!!!!

Obama on a High Wire

The desperation of the Emperor to remain in power is beginning to show. For all his talk over the last 3 years regarding driving the car, Obama is about to drop the transmission out of it due to jamming the gears.

In the last couple of days, the Emperor has gone from 100 miles per hour into reverse without even slowing down.

First, it was his blink of an eye reversal on super PAC money.

A couple of years ago, the Emperor scolded the Supreme Court Justices during his State of the Union speech for allowing unlimited Super PAC funding for candidates.

Just a couple of days ago, the Emperor again talked about Super PAC funding being wrong.

Then, yesterday, Obama jammed it into reverse urging Super PAC financiers to pour money into HIS campaign.

Liberals are scoffing at any mention of hypocrisy saying if it’s good for Republicans, it’s good for liberals too – but in doing so, they must completely ignore the fact that while Republicans never took a stance against it…Obama DID.

HIS reversal on this topic is the very definition of hypocrisy.

Obama’s SOTU…Socialism of the Union

I believe that, last night, we heard the LAST State of the Union address from Obama.

(Waiting for the thunderous applause to die down)

Thank you…Thank you very much…Thank you…Please…Please, be seated…Thank you very much.

It was more of the same old thing. Lots more.

Hike taxes on the rich.

Fair share.

More government.

Honestly, one needs a socialist decoder ring to fully understand an Obama speech.

“The state of our union is getting stronger, and we’ve come too far to turn back now.”

Decoded: Substitute “socialism” for “Union” and you get the real message.
