I did something I rarely do early this morning. I turned on Fox Fallacy News to see what spin they were putting on information they might have. The show was Bulls and Bears, a financial advisory show (supposedly). Every guest went on and on as the cameras zoomed in for the close-ups of them frothing.
The subject was the Democrats being unethical towards those poor oil fellows. Apparently the Democrats were trying to hold them accountable for accounting activities and this had the pundits of the show in a frothy tither. They were very upset for the oil corporations and said they have the right to make profits that the Democrats were just trying to make themselves look good to the little guy. They explained that little guys own stocks in these oil corporations and that the little guys will see through this Democratic play on our emotions.
Never once did they say how the oil companies find the resources which usually involves the use of mercenaries and even military forces. They never once spoke to the raping of the land in these countries where this valuable resource can be extracted. They never once spoke to the displacement of the indigenous people of these lands nor did they speak to the destruction of our ecosystem. They seem to have forgotten that this 43rd president promised us that by 2008 we would be using hydrogen power. Below is just one of his three promises to we the people of the United States:
"In this century, the greatest environmental progress will come about not through endless lawsuits or command-and-control regulations, but through technology and innovation. Tonight I'm proposing $1.2 billion in research funding so that America can lead the world in developing clean, hydrogen-powered automobiles." G.W. Bush
For more of his broken promises, feel free to check out my journal.
What's going on? or if that link doesn't work.

Yesterday set me back a bit. The History Channel re-aired an episode on the making of 9/11 and I suspect it was at the urging of the White House since the president is making his case against the Democrats and once again diverting the attention off of his failures. The History Channel showed what individuals were doing on that morning prior to the attack of 9/11. What they conspicuously left out was what our President was doing that day. Enough said.
This letter is going to be added to my blog today. I've had enough of this administration's deceit and it is time we do something about it.
Thank you for letting me pitch my fit.

WOW!! The sad truth of the matter is that gas prices are still too low to cause us to break from our love affair with gasoline. Until gas and oil become more expensive there will not be hydrogen propelled cars. And, by some weird quirk of math, the oil bosses are right--they priced gasoline at about 10% over cost--the costs tripled and so did their 10%. If we have $20 oil they make $2. If we have $70 oil they make $7. So they are really hoping that crude oil goes higher. As for fairness? There seems to be no money in fairness. L
