1. What Glenn Beck presented on his program yesterday. In fact, I watched the show for a second time at 11:00 p.m. PT. Glenn's points were made even more clear after viewing the show again.
2. Viewing the constant gushing of the BP Oil Disaster on CNN's Anderson Cooper show.
So many questions kept coming to my mind!!
Why isn't Obama meeting with the BP CEO?
Why aren't those in charge utilizing any of the ideas that have been put out there by individuals to clean up the oil slick and plug the hole in the pipe? People...SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG IN THIS SCENARIO!!
Why was Nancy Pelosi shouted down for 30 minutes by the liberal far left lunatics that they have embraced in the Democratic party?
Why didn't Nancy Pelosi fear these Code Pink radicals at the meeting - like she claimed to fear the TEA Party protesters who haven't done any violence and have NEVER thrown anything at her?
Why was James Carville so openly furious with the Obama Administration's lack of attention and help in this disaster? Don't they usually protect the Resident in Chief from criticism?
There are many more questions, but these will do for now.
Weeks ago, I mentioned to my husband that there are conspiracy theorists who think that Obama was using this disaster to ruin the oil drilling industry in America so that he could pass Cap and Trade. He thought that was highly unlikely. He didn't think that even Obama could be that evil! Well, someone has finally asked a very important question that has probably been on the minds of many Americans since over 50 days have gone by and NOTHING is being done to stop the spewing of oil into the Gulf. After all, didn't Rahm "dead fish" Emanuel once state that "we should never let a good crisis go to waste?"
This is a topic that comes under the banner of "Talk Wisdom Reports - You Decide."
Laigles Forum: High-level eco-terror or incompetence?
June 10th, 2010 LAIGLESFORUM
Is Obama an eco-terrorist or a bungler? You decide.
If the US government had ok’d the Dutch offer for oil spill cleanup assistance,tendered three days after the BP spill leading to the greatest ecological disaster of all time, Louisiana would not be cleaning up its beaches and the backs of oil-smeared pelicans. Its fishermen and shrimp boats would still be on the job. And there would have been no need to destroy tens of thousands of offshore oil platform jobs as Obama has done by issuing a halt order on most offshore drilling. Help was available, but Obama was likely following Rahm Emanuel’s advice not to let a good crisis go to waste. Can you say Scoundrel-in-Chief now? Please try it. It’s cathartic.
I am about to say what most of you have been thinking all along:
How dare a president who once promised to clean up our planet deliberately delay a desperately needed cleanup of our precious Gulf for the obvious purpose of creating an excuse to deny offshore drilling permits — and at a time when the jobs on these oil platforms are so desperately needed?
The slanderous, clueless media lambasted Bush mercilessly for waiting 2 and a half hours to make a decision to send help after he learned the levee had broken in New Orleans.
Let’s see: it has been almost 2 months now. Only about 45 days after the spill, after untold amounts of fish and wildlife have been killed and injured, is your government preparing to accept assistance that was tendered by one of the most credible agencies imaginable – the Dutch government – just three days after the spill.
There can only be two possible explanations:
Ecoterrorism, the deliberate destruction of habitat, is generally attributed to lone vigilante types acting out their own impulses in a mad effort to influence public opinion and hence government regulation. Yet, what has happened to our Gulf these last 40 some days suggests that ecoterrorism may well have entered government, with the possible collaboration of high ranking persons in the business sector. I know that may sound off the wall, but consider the open, known Marxists surrounding this president and the degree to which business is increasingly partnered with government, in a scheme more and more observers are calling either fascism or corporatism. Free market capitalism has all but vanished.
There is only one other possibility:
Obama is clueless. Without a clue, with no palpable science, technology or business background, and therefore having no idea which experts to trust, Obama would have simply let the Gulf be permanently destroyed rather than get involved and show his profound ignorance and total incompetence as a problem solver.
Those are your two options:
Either high level ecoterror, or incompetence. Or maybe a combination of the two?
If Obama were competent to sit in the Oval Office, this would be criminal.
But you know what? I am feeling generous. I’m willing to give Barack Obama the benefit of the doubt. Let’s let him off the hook and just call him an incompetent bungling idiot.
At any rate, this late acceptance of an early offer is the first glimmer of real hope — by June 13, they should be starting what could have — and should have – been started on April 23.
If any of you are letting that old “respect for the office” routine interfere with normal brain activity, it is high time to kick that habit right now and switch on your brain again. You’ll need it no later than November to vote out the bottom-feeding scum that rubber stamps everything our Marxist-in-Chief asks for.
It’s cleanup time in Washington too!
If you watched Glenn's show yesterday, you will see that there is a definite divide between the Democrat politicians and the far left Marxist revolutionaries (like Code Pink) who shouted at Pelosi, "WE WANT OUR MONEY AND WE WANT IT NOW!" They want PAY BACK for getting Obama elected! They were apparently promised certain things and since these "things" are not happening fast enough, they are angry and lashing out at their former politician pals. [See Daily Thought Pad for segments of the Glenn Beck show.]
At the end of his presentation, Glenn asked the question, "where does Obama fit in?" Is he in with the politicians or the far left revolutionaries?
What do you think, readers?

Update:
Well LOOKY HERE! More connect-the-dots information!
McConnell Charges That ‘Major Part’ of Democrats’ Cap-Trade Bill ‘Essentially Written by BP’
Must share this comment from the Facebook page on this story:
Maria Whitehead
Think of this: Obama received more $ from them than anyone else in election. BP ignored warnings just prior to leak, and CEO sold shares about the same time they ignored the warnings...and now the public opinion for oil drilling is turning ...and now this?? That's a lot of coincidences! ?? Not sure what to make of that...but it reeks.

Plus these reactions to Maria's comment:
Dani Rowland Trees
Maria hit the nail on the head...in addition - Goldman Sachs sold over 250 M in BP stock before the oil leak....and they also benefit GREATLY from passage of cap and trade.... it's apparent Sachs took those warnings to the bank...

Steven T. WelchThe Gulf Oil Spill is undoubtedly directly connected to the financial objective of implementing Cap and Trade. Anyone who does not see it is blind to the obvious. The Spill was not an accident!

Second Update:
Hot Air: Maine factory owner begs feds: Why aren’t you buying the oil barriers I’m churning out?
Comment there:
IMO they arent buying the boom for the same reason they arent doing a hundred other things
they arent MITIGATING the damage
they are CALCULATING the payoffs and who(m) to sue
horrible. This what comes of having community organizer as POTUS, shakedown artist not mitigation expert

It’s almost as if the president has no executive experience.
Oh, wait.

Third Update:
Washington Examiner: Once a government pet, BP now a capitalist tool
Excerpt:
Now that BP’s oil rig has caused the biggest environmental disaster in American history, the Left is pulling the same bogus trick it did with Enron and AIG: Whenever a company earns universal ire, declare it the poster boy for the free market.
As Democrats fight to advance climate change policies, they are resorting to the misleading tactics they used in their health care and finance efforts: posing as the scourges of the special interests and tarring “reform” opponents as the stooges of big business.
Expect BP to be public enemy No. 1 in the climate debate.
There’s a problem: BP was a founding member of the U.S. Climate Action Partnership (USCAP), a lobby dedicated to passing a cap-and-trade bill. As the nation’s largest producer of natural gas, BP saw many ways to profit from climate legislation, notably by persuading Congress to provide subsidies to coal-fired power plants that switched to gas.
[T]wo patterns have emerged during Obama’s presidency: 1) Big business increasingly seeks profits through more government, and 2) Obama nonetheless paints opponents of his intervention as industry shills. BP is just the latest example of this tawdry sleight of hand.
