Obamas Fuel Alternative...ALGAE!

Who knew that all of our energy problems would be solved with the simple and abundant Algae plant life..  if that is the case, let me quickly run and get my algae scrapper out and clean the bottom of my fish tank.

Little did I know our governement spends billions on algae bloom research, and Obama has just committed another 14 million to it. He told this today to a crowd at the University of Miami..and they just went wild over it. Isnt this like the time he told us all in order to save on gas mileage, that we should check our tire inflation? Is he forgetting about the poor track record the federal government has with bio-fuels. How much did we spend on ethanol development? And please don't let me bring up Solyndra or for God Sakes, the Chevy Volt.

He did openly admit that the development is still years away, but what about now Mr. President?  We are approaching $6.00 a gallon gas in this country,  we are aiding Mexico to drill off their shores for oil, but yet we can't do it in the same body of water? The American people are going to have to figure out which bill not to pay this month, in order to put gas in their cars.But yet your answer for that family that can't take a vacation, or the soccer mom who can no longer afford to drive her kids to practice is a damn plant!

And Thus It Begins...

Woke up this morning to the front page of DRUDGE, Iran is cutting oil sales to the British and French...
This is not any sort of news you want to start your week off with. The ripple effect of this is going to feel like an earthquakes shockwave felt around the world. $3.50 a gallon for gas will seem like bargain basement to everyone. It is all ready in the 4.00 range out in California.
Everything that we take for granted on a daily basis is going to skyrocket, we will no longer be able to afford the simple pleasures that we so love each and every day.. So I suggest if you can, to buy now, buy a lot, and stock up......

Iran stops oil sales to the British and French

Keystone Rejected!

I hope everyone is comfortable with paying over 3.00 a gallon for gas, because its about to sky rocket. Today the administration is set to announce the rejection of the Keystone Pipeline.

For those of you who haven’t kept up, it is a planned pipeline from Canada to Texas. If the United States doesn’t jump on it, then Canada will build it out in to the Pacific and ship that oil over to China.
Obama initially wanted to delay his decision until after the 2012 election, but Congress forced his hand and gave him a 60 day notice.

The work alone on this pipeline would create initially some 20,000 jobs which would potentially grow into 100,000 and give our country a much needed financial shot in the arm.

The reason for rejecting it is Environmentalist concerns and those all important carbon emissions..

In a time when you have Iran, wanting to block the Straits of Hormuz, and threatening Saudi Arabia if they increase output. You have Nigeria and all the conflicts there… why wouldn’t you, as an administration want to help your citizens? John Boehner was correct in saying this move is derelict.

The only positive I see coming from the rejection of this, would be a nail in the coffin for Obamas re-election. And it would be a weapon for who ever his opponent is in November. And he has to give justification to congress on why he made the decision..
