If Obummer was trying to convince the country that he was on top of the situation in the gulf oil disaster since day one, it didn’t work.

There are several skimmer ships sitting idle in Holland, Norway and Saudi Arabia just to mention a few countries and they all offered to help and were turned down by Obummer and company, when in fact he could have waived the Jones act with the stroke of a pen as George Bush did during Katrina.

I have news for the usurper in chief, you may be able to give a good speech (hot air and pie in the sky) but that doesn’t begin to feed the bulldog.

As for his statement that we are running out of places to drill, that is an out and out lie and he knows it.

I will once again remind everyone of something I have written about before. We are sitting on 503 billion barrels of light sweet crude right here in the United States in the Williston Basin usually called the Bakken.

The area is comprised of the western 2/3rds of North and South Dakota, as well as extreme eastern Montana.

We actually have more oil reserves right here in America than any other country in the world, and it is on dry land.

The country and our future is too important to allow a bunch of tree huggers and the environmental lobbyists to hold us hostage and not allow us to drill because it might disturb the breeding ground of a tit mouse, or some owl or what have you.

I will again remind my readers that Jimmy Carter started the Department of Energy in 1977 to supposedly get us off of our dependence on foreign oil.

It is now 2010 and we import 60 – 70 % of our oil from overseas and the Department of Energy has grown to 16,000 government employees, and 94,000 contract employees with an annual budget of some $24 billion dollars.

Can any of you boobs in Washington give us a plausible explanation of just what this department does to justify its existence and these kinds of expenditures.

I was amazed at the outlandish hubris of Obummer when he said he was going to dictate to the BP executives what they were going to do.

I wonder who would be left holding the bag if their board of directors decided to file for bankruptcy protection? You know who, THE AMERICAN TAX PAYER THAT’S WHO!!!

Now he appoints another Czar to oversee the BP fund of $20 billion dollars, but you had better check their balance sheet, BP doesn’t have that much at the moment. They have more like $7 billion on hand and by my math that leaves them about $13 billion short.

The usurper in chief is inexperienced and doesn’t know what he is doing, and to add insult to injury, he surrounds himself with inexperienced people who don’t know what the hell they are doing either.

Every time the little brown bag hits the fan, the first thing this sidewalk commando wants to do is appoint another Czar and/or form another commission (spending more money on salaries which we can’t afford) to make it appear like he is doing something (which he is not).

It would appear to anyone with more than a third grade education, that the boobs, clowns, and other assorted idiots in Washington couldn’t find their collective butts with a map and a flashlight.

Once the American people vote all of these morons out of office we need to take a scrub brush to the capitol and clean the scum and the stench out of the place and make it fit for decent honest people to work in, and make damn sure there are tight term limits and pay caps in place for the new crew among other things, but that is for another column.

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!
