GAS …more hot air… When is it enough?

You cannot tell me we are not be gouged at the pumps and everywhere else Oil is used.  Why do some people think it is ok to rape Americans  and damage the economy.

Although I do not normally think this way I almost feel the Oil companies either need to be broken up like to create competition or they should be taken over and Gas prices controlled by the government in support of National Defense. I know it is radical but these companies clearly do not care about the American people and have us all by the balls with no recourse. We cannot give up driving to work and buying a new car that get 4 more MPG is not the answer.

For the second quarter in a row, large oil companies reported record profits this week. Exxon Mobil, ConocoPhillips, Royal Dutch Shell and Chevron Corp., had a combined $35.2 billion profit in the latest three-month period.”

“At the same time, gasoline and home heating fuel prices continue to soar and are currently near the record highs

There is NO NONE, NADA reason for the high price of GAS!!! NONE!! except we are being GOUGED!

Where is the Government that is suppose to protect us against Price fixing???

The WAR on Terror historically

Thanks to Ann Coulter for this list.

A reminder of the Muslim terrorsts and how important it is to stand up against these Muslim terrorists. They will NOT go  away face it!!

Here’s the highlights reel for anyone still voting for the Democrats:

— November 1979: Muslim extremists (Iranian variety) seized the U.S. embassy in Iran and held 52 American hostages for 444 days, following Democrat Jimmy Carter’s masterful foreign policy granting Islamic fanaticism its first real foothold in the Middle East.

— 1982: Muslim extremists (mostly Hezbollah) began a nearly decade-long habit of taking Americans and Europeans hostage in Lebanon, killing William Buckley and holding Terry Anderson for 6 1/2 years.

— April 1983: Muslim extremists (Islamic Jihad or possibly Hezbollah) bombed the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, killing 16 Americans.

— October 1983: Muslim extremists (Hezbollah) blew up the U.S. Marine barracks at the Beirut airport, killing 241 Marines.

— December 1983: Muslim extremists (al-Dawa) blew up the U.S. Embassy in Kuwait, killing five and injuring 80.

— September 1984: Muslim extremists (Hezbollah) exploded a truck bomb at the U.S. Embassy annex in Beirut, killing 24 people, including two U.S. servicemen.

— December 1984: Muslim extremists (probably Hezbollah) hijacked a Kuwait Airways airplane, landed in Iran and demanded the release of the 17 members of al-Dawa who had been arrested for the bombing of the U.S. Embassy in Kuwait, killing two Americans before the siege was over.

— June 14, 1985: Muslim extremists (Hezbollah) hijacked TWA Flight 847 out of Athens, diverting it to Beirut, taking the passengers hostage in return for the release of the Kuwait 17 as well as another 700 prisoners held by Israel. When their demands were not met, the Muslims shot U.S. Navy diver Robert Dean Stethem and dumped his body on the tarmac.

— October 1985: Muslim extremists (Palestine Liberation Front backed by Libya) seized an Italian cruise ship, the Achille Lauro, killing 69-year-old American Leon Klinghoffer by shooting him and then tossing his body overboard.

— December 1985: Muslim extremists (backed by Libya) bombed airports in Rome and Vienna, killing 20 people, including five Americans.

— April 1986: Muslim extremists (backed by Libya) bombed a discotheque frequented by U.S. servicemen in West Berlin, injuring hundreds and killing two, including a U.S. soldier.

— December 1988: Muslim extremists (backed by Libya) bombed Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, killing all 259 on board and 11 on the ground.

(Then came an amazing, historic pause in Muslim extremists’ relentless war on America after Ronald Reagan won the Cold War by doing the opposite of everything recommended by Democrats, depriving Islamic terrorists of their Soviet sponsors. This confuses liberals because they don’t understand the concept of terror sponsors, whether it’s the Soviet Union or Iraq.)

— February 1993: Muslim extremists (al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya, possibly with involvement of friendly rival al-Qaida) set off a bomb in the basement of the World Trade Center, killing six and wounding more than 1,000.

— Spring 1993: Muslim extremists (al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya, the Sudanese Islamic Front and at least one member of Hamas) plot to blow up the Lincoln and Holland tunnels, the U.N. complex, and the FBI’s lower Manhattan headquarters.

— November 1995: Muslim extremists (possibly Iranian “Party of God”) explode a car bomb at U.S. military headquarters in Saudi Arabia, killing five U.S. military servicemen.

— June 1996: Muslim extremists (13 Saudis and a Lebanese member of Hezbollah, probably with involvement of al-Qaida) explode a truck bomb outside the Khobar Towers military complex, killing 19 American servicemen and injuring hundreds.

— August 1998: Muslim extremists (al-Qaida) explode truck bombs at U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, killing 224 and injuring thousands.

— October 2000: Muslim extremists (al-Qaida) blow up the U.S. Navy destroyer USS Cole, killing 17 U.S. sailors.

— Sept. 11, 2001: Muslim extremists (al-Qaida) hijack commercial aircraft and fly planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania, killing nearly 3,000 Americans.

America’s war with Islamic fanaticism didn’t start on 9/11, but it’s going to end with 9/11 — as long as Americans aren’t foolish enough ever to put a Democrat in the White House.

This is another good thought

So I ask how many far left liberals does it take to screw in a light blub?

It does not matter as they won’t see the light anyhow!!!!
So true!

You just had to laugh…

This morning commuting into Boston I witnessed a funny event. As I cruised along I noticed a Highway cop with lights off coming up on my rear so I pulled over and held it down to 60mph. As he passed me I noticed it was just a Transit Police car heading into the city.

Well he seemed in a slight hurry as he picked it up to at least 70mph and then I noticed a Red Saab seemed to be tailgating him pretty good for about a mile as others moved out of his way. Then as we approached the hill in Belmont the Tranist Cop pulled suddenly to the middle lane and the Saab passed him and then the Transit Cop jumped on his tail for a few yards the the Saab finally began to show a little respect and moved to the middle lane but it was too late as the Tranist cop had had enough and decided to have a chat with this nut.

I was glad to see this as people need to have more respect for the police and no matter what flavor they are. They are our first repsonders and hopefully will do so if it ever becomes necessary again.

This dummy, I have know idea what he was thinking, tailgating a police car at 70plus mph.

As I drove by I could not help noticing  that maybe I was wrong and the Transit policeman was just racial profiling…..

Nahhhh, This was just a dumb ass and his race had nothing to do with it!!

Manchester Police catch illegals but it is a mystery!!!!

This is sad on so many fronts. This article in the Union Leader about Illegals being caught in Manchester and then turn into ICE who go on to provide a commerical for the construction industry in New Hampshire.

“They were all employed,” Furtado said.

“A lot do come . . . not just to New Hampshire, but to the United States, to earn wages to send money back home,” he said.

New Hampshire, he added, “has a strong economy and the construction field offers a potential for them to have a decent wage — long hours, but a decent wage.”

Manchester police said the incidents were unrelated police responses to community calls for help, not the result of any organized effort to target illegal aliens.

“This is totally happenstance. This is not something where we had a detail going on that was looking for this type of thing or where we were working in conjunction with (federal immigration officers),” Sgt. Lloyd S. Doughty II said.

The Manchester Police seem to be saying to the Illegals we won’t do our jobs if you do make us!! Come to Manchester and just lay low and you will not be arrested.

I think the Hudson Police Chief should take a trip to Manchester and provide them some training on how to do their damn jobs and protect the American citizens which includes from ILLEGALS!!

Rest this article here.
