Obama will be the time machine that takes us back to 1978. Gas lines and out of gas signs on stations throughout the country.
Democrat falacies include, but are not limited to the following:
Democrat theory 1. There is no disparity between oil demand and supply, and speculators and evil oil companies are driving the prices up.
Every great lie is embedded with a little truth. Speculation does drive prices up, but it drives them down as well. Our issues our complex, too much spending (by Democrats and RINOs) devaluing the dollar...but the elephant in the living room is that world demand is exceeding current production levels. Thats what is driving the speculation up and up. With no anticipated increases to that production now or in the future, oil will climb higher and higher. Enter stage right, the Democrats, who will open up supply by taxing oil companies to buy votes by redistributing money to lower income to buy gas. But doesn't that raise demand, just what they say they don't want to do? How does that increase supply? With Democrat sponsored new taxes on oil, oil companies will reacte by moving their operations offshore and continue to sell their product to the growing global market. This will drive prices far above the point to where any confiscation of oil company profits to distribute to the poor will help at all. I'm afraid the Democrats, short of nationalizing oil companies as the Socialist dictator Hugo Chavez recently did, can't put the global genie back in the bottle. This is where the Democrat party is moving, replacing free enterprise with Government run energy companies, healthcare, and housing.
Democrat theory 2. Higher gas prices will reduce demand and accelerate adaption to alternative energy.
Although this theory runs directly counter to the Hussein plan to redistribute money to buy gas, then its obviously an attempt to buy votes because even Democrats can't be that stupid (although many of their supporters are). The idea that the poor will buy green energy rather than oil is a pipe dream....even ALGORE's carbon footprint is 20 times the average American just heating and cooling his 20,000 mansion ….and fueling up the private jet he sports around in...yes...even though he nailed a few solar panels on his roof, it wasn't enough. Alternate energy is expensive and inefficient compared to oil, but I guess the poor will have to suck it up for the sake of environmental extremism. Yeah Democrats. This is why Democrats support public schools, as they continue to roll out people who cannot read, write, or think.

Narrowly Missing a Civil War
How can 4 Supreme Court Justices redefine the 2nd Amendment?
We are all much relieved that the SCOTUS overturned the DC handgun ban. However, we were one vote from the court rewriting our Constitution based on their own opinion.
Dumb ass unelected judges have reached out of their box, and have taken over the role of legislators. This is a dangerous trend that will not leave democratic solutions as options, but armed revolution.
Judges would do well to examine there role in our Government and decide to use restraint rather than activism, to give democracy a chance to resolve the issues of the day.

What Kind of Leader do We Want?
The America I grew up in no longer exists. I think it started to fall apart in the early 60's, about when I was in the third grade. That was the last time I stood for the Lord's prayer at the beginning of class. The pillars of morality began to collapse there, for me, and that implosion hasn't stopped for the last 40 years. Beatniks, then Hippies, led us into a strange world whose vision was based on anarchy. Like John Lennon's "Imagine", the goal of no country and no religions all coming together to create a society of free loving peaceniks living free of war, ambition, and greed.
I've been around, and will never believe in the altruism of man. That is the foundation of atheism, that man is naturally good and should be his own God. Secular Humanists have busily been building their own tower of Babel while failing to recognize their own nature in a fallen world. Each man, regardless of motives, is stuck with his own demons which holds the potential of unleashing oppression on those who stand in their way. Make no mistake, good men are far and few between who lack the guidance of Almighty God.
As Proverbs proclaims, a fool declares there is no God. Whom shall we be lead by? Do you trust the judgement of man, or prefer to be led by men under the judgement of God? Consider the consequences of future elections.

Marriage is NOT a Right
Marriage is NOT a right. The state can legally stop issuing marriage licenses altogether. The notion that marriage is a constitution right is silly at best, and dangerous at worst (if courts rather than legislatures decide the issue).
The state legislature (we the people) decide what licenses our state issues. The judiciary has overstepped its bounds once again. Thugs in black robes are ill advised to overrule the will of 'we the people'. Activitist judges are making a mockery of our form of government, and they need to be made to answer (impeached or removed). This cannot be tolerated, whether we agree or disagree with the ruling. Courts CANNOT become legislatures by legal fiat. What they are doing in California is a power grab and unconstitutional. The Courts domain is to determine if an existing law applies to a case or does not. It is not their job to determine lack, and then fulfill the law by rule. That’s what elected legislators do on our behalf. We live in a democracy, not under the thumb of unelected dictators of public policy.
Gays are turning this into a civil rights issue. Its clearly not. Gayness is an identity, not a race or gender. Gays can get licenses to marry members of the opposite sex with no prejudice. If Gay marriage is wanted, then Gays should pursue through their elected representatives. Winning this decision may have been one step forward, but there will be two steps back as the backlash kicks in. Real Americans will not be ruled this way.
States issue marriage licenses to protect children, and promote the raising of the next generation. Marriage is a necessary institution to birth, nurture, and educate that generation. This is critical to the survival of the state. Licensed marriage has no other purpose for the state. Same sex marriages are not equal in this respect. Single parenting or adoptions are not entitlements to marriage licenses. The state sets the conditions for marriage, and it choose wisely to promote heterosexual marriage to successfully raise up the next generation of tax paying citizens.
Homosexual marriage has no benefit to the state. In fact, homosexual sex is generally unhealthy and spreads disease and injury throughout the society. Despite denials, STDs run rampant between homosexual and bisexual communities. It is not in any states interest to promote any sexual proclivity by license whether its homosexuality, bisexuality, polygamy, pedophilia, or fathers marrying daughters, mothers marrying sons, or brothers marrying sisters. Marriage is designed to protect the children of heterosexual unions. That’s it.

School Harrasses Six Grader Over Pro Life Shirt..Thomas More to the Rescue!
School Harasses Minnesota Sixth Grader Wearing Pro-Life T-shirts; Thomas More Law Center Files Federal Lawsuit
Tuesday, June 3, 2008
ANN ARBOR, MI — The Thomas More Law Center, a national public-interest law firm, based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, announced today that it has filed a federal lawsuit defending the Constitutional rights of a sixth grader to wear t-shirts to school that express his pro-life beliefs. The lawsuit was filed in the U. S. District Court for the District of Minnesota against the Hutchinson Middle School located in Hutchinson, Minnesota. The sixth grader, referred to in the lawsuit as “K. B.” because of his age, is a Christian who believes that abortion is the wrongful taking of an innocent life and a grave offense to the Law of God.
School officials, including the principal and several teachers, on over a dozen occasions during April 2008, told “K. B.” not to wear the t-shirts, publicly singled him out for ridicule in front of his classmates, removed him from class, sent him to the principal’s office, forced him to turn his pro-life t-shirt inside out, and threatened him with suspension if he did not stop wearing the offending pro-life t-shirts.
During the period in question, “K. B.” wore three different t-shirts, all produced by the American Life League, a national Pro-Life advocacy group. The t-shirts contained such pro-life messages as, “Abortion… growing, growing, gone, ” “What part of abortion don’t you understand?” and, “Never Known – Not Forgotten.”
Richard Thompson, President and Chief Counsel of the Law Center, commented, “This courageous young Christian was ridiculed and threatened by teachers for expressing his deeply held beliefs. These school officials clearly violated the U. S. Constitution and the school’s own written Dress Policy which specifically states it is not intended to abridge the rights of students to express political or religious messages.”
The Thomas More Law Center is being assisted by Minnesota attorney Paul Taylor, an affiliated attorney with the Law Center.
Brandon Bolling, the Law Center attorney assigned as lead counsel stated, “The Supreme Court has held it permissible for public schools to limit student speech only when there is an actual and substantial disruption of school activity. That is not the case here. The only people who took issue with the Pro-Life t-shirts were the school’s employees — in fact, if any one caused any disruption, it was the school’s employees, by their constant public harassment of our client because they disagreed with his pro-life message.”
The Thomas More Law Center defends and promotes the religious freedom of Christians, time-honored family values, and the sanctity of human life through education, litigation, and related activities. It does not charge for its services. The Law Center is supported by contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations, and is recognized by the IRS as a section 501(c)(3) organization.

Obama Quits Trinity
Foxnews.com
Obama said he was deeply disappointed by the remarks and Pfleger apologized, but Clinton’s campaign still demanded Obama specifically reject the latest remarks.
By dropping his 20-year membership, Obama is taking the most definitive stand to date against the church.
He suggested that the Pfleger backlash was the deciding factor for him.
“It’s clear that now that I’m a candidate for president, every time something is said in the church by anyone associated with Trinity, including guest pastors, the remarks will be imputed to me, even if they totally conflict with my long-held views, statements and principles,” he said, praising the congregation and church leaders for their work in the Chicago community.
“It’s not fair to the other members of the church who seek to worship in peace, so our faith remains strong and I suspect we will find another church home for our family.”
That's Obama's response???? He is sorry for the trouble his candidacy has had on the Trinity Church??? Huh???
What about the hateful rhetoric? What about his judgement of belonging to a "church" for the last 20 years that seems to be very comfortable spewing the worst kind of anti-American garbage I think I've ever heard? That's called 'worship'? The worship service at Trinity sounds more like a rally at a Blank Panther's convention. Whats next, "kill Whitey" shouted to the heavens?
My fellow Americans, we cannot risk allowing this dangerous man to run our country. As much as I despise John McAmnesty, Osama Obama would not just be a liberal President, but would be a President that supports policies that America's enemies endorse themselves. What has America become, that a candidate endorsed by Hamas would receive the nomination of a major political party in the United States? This will force me to vote for another GOP RINO against my will. What are the choices now? We can't just let it go and wait for 2012.
Beam me up Scottie!
