This man has never given a speech, never given a presidential statement without lacing it with politics and his own ego...
"[Obama:] Only in politics do people root for bad news... you can bet that, since it's an election year, they're already dusting off their three-point plan for two dollar gas. And I'll save you the suspense. Step one is to drill and step two is to drill. And then step three is to keep drilling. We heard the same line in 2007 when I was running for president. We hear the same thing every year. We've heard the same thing for 30 years. Well, the American people aren't stupid. They know that's not a plan. "
Mr. President, you may not know this. You may not understand this, because you've never actually taken the time to understand how this works.But, yes, you have to drill to get oil, to get natural gas. You have to drill. You see, Mr. President, when that fleet of cars drives up to the local gas stations... and they fuel those cars, at our expense of course, the fuel isn't actually in those pumps to begin with, Mr. President.
You have to drill to get that stuff.
That's right! You have to get drill to get gasoline for your car! So a policy that says 'drill', number one, 'drill' number two, and 'drill' number three, is actually the only way to get gasoline, isn't it? Is there some other way to get gasoline, other than drilling?
Is there some other way to get home heating oil, other than drilling?
...So the president, on the one side of his considerable mouth mocks the Republicans for trying to drill, and on the other side of his mouth, mocks drilling! So, ladies and gentlemen, if we don't drill, we don't get oil!
If we don't drill, we don't get gas! Somebody's got to drill!
And there was Hillary Rotten Clinton, her Thighness, yesterday all excited about a deal with the Mexican government to drill in the Gulf in areas that are said to be shared... I could've sworn I heard Hillary Clinton talk about drilling! And we give millions, if not billions, to the Brazilians to do what? To drill!
And what are they doing in the Middle East? These massive ships that the oil companies have to have, that bring fuel back. Where do they get that? Oh, they drill? Yes, they drill!
So he mocks drilling and doesn't realize he sounds like idiot!
No, here's where we're going to get it: from the sun! Really? Solar. And wind! Now he's been president for three years, had complete control of the government for two years, and what did we get from this wind and solar? We got crony capitalism; campaign bundlers who made a fortune and then broke the companies; companies that can't work and don't work because a top-down, government mastermind like Obama can't -- just because he has the law and our money behind him -- do whatever he wants to do, against the laws of nature and physics, until we are able to develop it over the course of time. Until it's profitable, until it makes sense.
We call that whole process, "capitalism."

While I do not believe that Obama is the brilliant genius his minions purport him to be, I do believe he is smart enough to know what is highlighted in this post. He knows damn well. Which means the destruction of our energy sector and economic stability is intentional.
ReplyDeleteHowever, should we give the benefit of the doubt and assume Mr. SmartPower doesn't really understand, then the destruction of our energy sector and economic stability is due to incompetence.
Either way, arrogance or incompetence, one term has been too many for Obama. Gingrich was right: defeating Obama is a "duty of national security" because regardless of intent, he is truly the "most dangerous president in modern American history".
