Hahaha acoustic. You're a one trick pony and your only trick is bloviating.

Sarah Palin Taunts Obama on Putin, Energy Policy
Mark Whittington
Mar 4, 2014

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who predicted the Russian invasion of the Ukraine in 2008 as a vice presidential candidate, took to the airways on the Sean Hannity show to taunt President Obama and offer some political wisdom.

"People are looking at Putin as one who wrestles bears and drills for oil," Palin said to Fox News's Sean Hannity on Monday night. "They look at our president as one who wears mom jeans and equivocates and bloviates."

Besides pointing out the obvious, that Putin is running rings around Obama, Palin also ruminated about the relationship between energy independence and military strength. She suggested that since Russia has developed its oil and natural gas resources, much of which is being exported to Europe, she has been able to upgrade its military. America, she went on to say, needs to do the same, starting with building the Keystone XL pipeline.

The pipeline would ship Canadian tar sands oil to refineries at the Texas Gulf Coast. From there finished products could be shipped from ports in Texas to just about anywhere in the world.

Palin, as usual, is onto something. If the United States were to expand drilling both offshore and on federal lands and to unleash hydraulic fracking in areas where a moratorium now exists, it could swiftly become not only energy independent but also an energy exporting country. This would augment economic growth and job creation, increasing tax revenues, and in turn provide enough money for a strong national defense.

Reagan likened the Taliban to our founding fathers. The US govt trained BinLaden...

The way you and Palin talk Senator Obama was more influential in Georgia than the then President...er, what was his name?

Yes, I've heard of Chechnya. Have you ever heard of Kommander Korruption..aka, Bill Clinton?

Yes, I've heard of Georgia. Have you ever heard of South Ossetia? South Ossetia broke away from Georgia in the 1990s, has a heavily Russian citizenry and GEORGIA attempted to retake South Ossetia in August 2008. Russia did not invade Georgia under George W Bush. O'Bomber is an equivocating, weak kneed reed who bends before every wind...depending on which way the wind is blowing. Sarah Palin has O'Bomber's political and psychological profile right.

As to Putin's time in the KGB, that was where the power was in those days...the Communist party was IT. So that was where he made his name. Over 20 years ago he stopped being a member for something more promising. In other words he is an Opportunist not an ideologue., and was never Communist except in name.

A new Public Policy Polling survey finds that Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) has now become the least popular U.S. Senator in the country.

Thanks for that Michael Lutin post. He is one of my favorite astrologers. I own one of his books, and it is probably the best [psychologically speaking] I have ever read.

here is his take on sunday 3/9/14

The irony of Direct Jupiter and Retrograde Saturn

No question. The direct motion of an
exalted Jupiter
is fortunate.

No question the retrograde of Saturn
at the same time
is a loss of momentum.
Jupiter lessens evil
and always provides you
with options.
Saturn retrograde sucks
the enthusiasm
from your desire
to explore your options.

You must continue to find
beauty and meaning
in the midst
of darkness
and joy
in the midst of pain.

Russia has invaded numerous countries throughout decades of Presidents, of both parties and many personalities. Blaming Obama for Ukraine is much like blaming Bush for Georgia, Eisenhower for Hungary, Johnson for Czehoslovakia, etc etc etc.

Sarah Palin told her fellow conservatives at CPAC that “there are more uninsured today than when Obama began all of this,” referring to the Affordable Care Act. But there is no evidence of that. Annual Census surveys show the percentage of uninsured Americans in 2010, when the ACA became law, was 16.3 percent. It dropped to 15.7 percent in 2011 and 15.4 percent in 2012. Gallup surveys show the percentage of uninsured Americans hit a five-year low in the first two months of this year.

It is too early to determine the full impact of the ACA, but the fact is that the percentage of uninsured Americans has been on the decline since the law took effect — and, conversely, the percentage of the insured has increased. Congressional budget experts project that the law will reduce the number of the uninsured by 13 million by the end of this year.

Is it possible you could be this historically ignorant? Or, are you just too terminally lazy to check your facts before blasting off into error?

The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in December 1979. That's about 11 months BEFORE RONALD REAGAN WAS ELECTED and about 13 months before Ronald Reagan was sworn in as President.

The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan occurred on the watch of the formerly worst president of the United States...James..Jimmy Carter who has been eclipsed as worst president by your Marxist Messiah, Barack Hussein O'Bomber.

The Iranians released the US hostages they had held for 444 days under Jimmy Carter because they believed Ronald Reagan would bomb them into oblivion if they didn't. A wise decision because I think that's exactly what Reagan would have done.

Gov. Palin On the Appointment of ‘Political Operative’ Sylvia Burwell
April 12 2014
Stacy Drake

You just can’t make this stuff up.

President Obama just appointed Sylvia Burwell to take over Obamacare, the disastrous beast under which our entire health care system and 1/6 of our nation’s economy is forever fundamentally transformed.

Remember last year when America’s war memorials, national parks, patriotic amenities, student White House tours, etc. were shut down because the Obama administration’s spending priorities are so out of whack? Americans were told the Federal government didn’t have enough of our tax dollars to allow WWII vets to walk across a public sidewalk to visit a statue honoring these heroes. This, during the "shutdown" when crony capitalism, earmarks, and waste and fraud continued to fill the swamp. This, while the first family continued to live elaborately large and some in Congress had the gall to whine that they aren’t paid enough. This, while the people’s will continued to be arrogantly ignored.

What a cold and callous bureaucrat it was who’d direct that quite revealing fiasco, an episode over which the Obama Administration never recovered in the court of public opinion.

Who would do such a thing? Who would punish patriotic Americans? Who sent the email initiating all this?

The political operative Sylvia Burwell.

It’s Sylvia’s stain on the ash heap of history. And along with Sylvia’s stain comes her disturbing, punitive priorities as she takes over our health care coverage. Yeah, nothing can go wrong with that.

You can’t make this stuff up.
