According to the Veep, by spending $50B + for high speed rail in economic times that put all of us and generations to come owing tons of money this administration spent and borrowed and spent to the point of (almost??) no return.
In other words – rocketing to the poorhouse.
Idiot. I hope everyone else picks up on the timing of this idiocy.
hhhmm, I wonder how much of that $50B could be used to seal the southern border …….

Remember those stories that a lot of Toyota cars suddenly, for no reason, suffered intense acceleration?
Well, Neil Cavuto summarizes the truth of the matter – it isn’t, and wasn’t, true. At all.
Here’s my question.
Are they going to get the money back from the government (fines)??????

Happy Birthday, Ronald Reagan.
HotAirPundit has two perfect videos for this day. The first, a campaign ad. Thes second, today’s experiment by President Obama.
Kinda makes you want to turn the calendar back ……

In an exclusive interview with The Brody File, Sarah Palin criticized President Obama for his handling of the situation in Egypt saying that this was his, “3am White House phone call” and, “that call went right to the answering machine.”
Heh.

Over the deepwater oil drilling moratorium. A very interesting read.
But will it solve anything? Don’t hold your breath. Be nice if someone in Congress would push this further into the sunshine.
Hint.
UPDATE: Job losses. Oil company files for bankruptcy, sells oil rigs. Administration does nothing. Nothing.

About global warming, er, climate change, um – snowballs in he…….. oh, nuts.
Seems that John Holdren, cough – top science adviser to BO, thinks we don’t know anything about science. Particulalrly the life cycle of our own planetary system.
Gee, John, maybe you’ve been schooled a bit longer than some (I only have a Master’s in Engineering Sciences, does that count?) but that doesn’t mean you have all the answers.
Oh, by the way, how are you going to plug the earth’s volcanos, hhmm? And stop the methane from bubbling up from the Atlantic? Refreeze those (floating) icecaps and icebergs? (You know that ice, when it melts, takes up far less volume, right?)
Don’t treat us like fools. We’re on to the game. As for “green” energy sources, we are nowhere near break-even.

Deepwater rigs moved out of the Gulf of Mexico
(Adds Pride rig moving to Mediterranean)
Jan 27 (Reuters) – Some of the 30-plus deepwater rigs that were in the Gulf of Mexico have moved to other markets, first because of a U.S. halt called last May after BP Plc’s well blowout, and then because of the lack of permits once the moratorium was lifted.
See the jobs go. See the oil go. See unemployment rise. Is it any wonder costs for everything will rise?
And we remain dependent on others to export oil to us. Even moreso.
Sorry, grandkids, this is no longer the America it used to be.
Thank the President and the 111th Congress for this mess. They are the ones who foisted this on you.
Let no one tell you otherwise, for that will be a lie.

We keep falling for it though. That is, not all of us, but some percentage most certainly do.
And just to make sure you understand just how bad I feel about that you should know that my truck doesn’t use gas, but diesel. That is even more expensive now. Think what impact that has on the delivery of foodstuffs to the grocery store, and consumer goods to other stores.
Don’t forget now, BO also said, during his campaign, that “under my plan, energy costs would necessarily skyrocket.”
I just want to make sure you remember that.
Oh, and if you this is bad, just wait until oil by the barrel costs $100 and stays there (or goes even higher)!!!!
Oil at $100 and unemployment ~10 percent is bad news for Obama’s re-election hopes, of course. (It should go without saying that it is bad for America, too, and that I do not wish for economic suffering to be visited upon my fellow citizens in order to hamper the Obama administration.) But you know what’s even worse than $100 oil? $150 oil, which the CEO of Gulf says would not surprise him. There will be tremendous political pressure put on OPEC and the other producers if that happens. But why would OPEC want to bail us out? What is in it for them? Devalued U.S. dollars? If the Obama administration will not get behind a solid dollar for sound economic reasons, maybe narrow political self-interest will be enough.

The UK is just now finding out how much they are going to have to shell out when replacing their light bulbs.
Seems they banned incandescent light bulbs. This ban took effect the start of this year. They can’t buy (stock up) 100W bulbs now and won’t be able to get 60W bulbs starting next year. Which means the manufacturers of the newer, less power hungry compact florescent bulbs can likely drive wholesale prices upward.
Do you hear this, Fred Upton? I hope you maintain your “switched” position and undo your 3-year past legislation to ban such light bulbs here in the U.S.
