Sarah Palin on Why & How we can drill for our own domestic energy resources..

At least one highly experienced foreign analyst thinks Russia is acting like a schoolyard bully, but does it go even further & deeper than that? Russia’s foreign minister Serghej Lavrov spewed out an ill-conceived ultimatum Wednesday demanding that the US chooses between Georgia, or Russia, after President Bush warned the Kremlin that “the United States stands with the democratically elected government of Georgia.”
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice countered with, “This is not 1968 and the invasion of Czechoslovakia where Russia can threaten a neighbor, occupy a capital, overthrow a government and get away with it.Things have changed.”
Is it me, or do the Russians sound eerily akin to certain islamic terror groups whenever they open their mouths these days? And if they do resemble these groups, why are we negotiating with them?
“This is not 1968 and the invasion of Czechoslovakia where Russia can threaten a neighbor, occupy a capital, overthrow a government and get away with it,” Rice said. “Things have changed.”
The analyst in the video below agrees with my early assessments that this was nothing more than a Russian land/power grab.
Oh, on a “side note”.. The U.N. is still figuring out how they can send a bit more than a “stern” letter, since Russia would have to vote for it’s own condemnation as a “member in good standing”..
What a joke…
~Dan Lee
Once again I ask, where is the UN? How many “stern warnings” will they give while innocent people are caught in nothing short of a war for Oil, land & for the purpose of squelching freedom?
Earlier in the week I predicted that Russia had bigger plans than just pushing back a government assault on their allied rebels in South Ossetia. Today we see that what I said is turning out to be true. They are digging in around Georgia, & mockingly honoring a cease fire agreement on their own terms.
Make no mistake, this was a probing test for Russia, to see how fare they could push their luck with the international community, & how much they could take before someone stepped in to stop them.
So what has the US done in response? Not much more than the same kind of empty rebuking that the UN has done. Does President Bush really think that Russia cares what he says? We should load up T’Bilisi with a full fledged fighting force. Now THAT would send a message. This administration needs to remember one thing. Honor is no more with our enemies. They only understand on thing, & that is force.
It’s the least we can do after Georgia sent more troops to Iraq to assist us, than some of out bigger allies have. Show weakness, & Russia will respond like a dog does when you show fear. They will keep getting more & more aggressive.
Right now the message we’re sending to Georgia is, “Hey, we have your back, as long as it doesn’t cost us politically, or involve actually doing anything other than trash talk.”
The wussification of America continues..
~Dan Lee
I read this in the news today, & it made me wish I was in charge of the military response to Russia’s unlawful invasion of Georgia:
Abkahzian separatists backed by Russian military might pushed out Georgian troops and even moved into Georgian territory itself, defiantly planted a flag over the Inguri River and laughing that retreating Georgians had received “American training in running away.”
If Reagan were President, this wouldn’t be happening, & there would be sorties of U.S. Bombers & Blackhawks decimating Russian armor as we speak.
Meanwhile the UN (United Nothings) are of course sitting on their asses & waving a stick at Russia saying, “Now you better stop that or else.” OOooh now I bet they’re scared now! Not…
Why is this important to America you may ask? Well it’s important because this is a direct slap at America, & Russia is trying to put more energy pressure on us via a proxy war. Check this story out if you don’t believe it, because it’s essentially working at this time.
If the conflict has still not died down enough for BP to turn the gas pumps in Baku back on, Turkey will need to make up for the lost supplies by turning to Iran.
Turkey may be an ambivalent ally of the US, but they are still an ally. Russia has allied with Iran in recent years. Are you seeing the picture forming here? Basically Russia & it’s rogue nation allies like Iran, don’t want Georgia to be able to provide competitive energy to surrounding nations, & they are sour that we’ve helped them get that energy. This is a two prong assault on both the oil markets, & meant to be an “example” of what happens when you mess with Russia’s energy pimping practices.
It’s serious people. They want us & our allies hooked on their energy sources, & all the while we have people like Nancy Pelosi & her Democrat cronies trying to keep us from getting our own. She issues a house statement to condemn the “Russian intimidation”. Big deal! If there weren’t pansy nut cases like her to make sure we can’t get at our own energy, there would have been no incentive for Russia to act this way in the first place! How long until we’re speaking Russian under those conditions? Not long.. You can’t fight a defensive war without oil my friends. It’s never been done, & never will be. Thanks to environmental lunatics & extremist Democrats like Reid, Pelosi, Stoyer, ect. we don’t have the capability to run tanks & war planes on nuclear power either. We wont have much luck attaching windmills to M1 Abrams tanks either. So that leads us back to the oil that the white flagger Democrats hate so much doesn’t it…
I hope my fellow countrymen/women will understand how serious this move Russia has made really is. It’s not just a little skirmish, & it’s timing was purposeful. The Olympics are a big distraction for the world, & Russia knew it, which makes what they’ve done even more devious. I’m sorry that turning your head away from poll vaulting & swimming to pay attention to this is an inconvenience, but if you don’t, we’re going to have an even greater energy crises than we ever thought possible in this country by next year. Russia cannot be allowed to try & influence the energy market through brute force. It simple cannot be tolerated under any circumstances.
Additionally, when we asked Georgia to send troops to Iraq, they did. Not only that, they sent more than some larger nations did. Now, we owe them to at least keep Russia out of their country, even if that means sending troops there. Russia has no soul, & clearly didn’t mind bombing civilians, yet the left in this country is almost completely silent. There are no “Putin lied, & people died” banners being held up in the streets of America. That’s because leftists have always lined up with communism. They simply don’t care, because quite frankly many of these globalists wouldn’t mind being Russia’s or any other commie country’s “bitches”. The left in this country has no soul either, so that would be right down their alley. I hope that good people in the US wake up soon, because this seemingly “small conflict” has farther reaching consequences than most people are realizing right now.
Here’s where you can contact you Congressman to express concern.
Russian military that is supposed to be withdrawing can be seen on the following video making deeper incursions toward Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson apologized Wednesday for saying Barack Obama is “talking down to black people” during what Jackson thought was a private conversation before a FOX News interview Sunday.
Jackson was speaking to a guest at the time about Obama’s speeches in black churches and his support for faith-based charities. Jackson added before going live, “I want to cut his nuts off.”
His microphone picked up the remarks.
Come on Mr. Jackson. just be honest! If he wins the election, you are out of the race baiting business! How much higher can a person of color go than President of the U.S.?
You hate him because you & Sharpton will be reduced to hanging around with reverend Wright & talking about the good old Clinton days, when you could race bait & prosper from convincing blacks that all whites hate them.
Well if Obama wins, that will mean that more whites than blacks voted for him. Game over for you & the race baiters. Isn’t that really why you’d like to cut his balls off?
~Dan Lee
Mitt Romney?
Duncan Hunter?
Two real conservatives to keep your Rhino-ness from tipping the scales in the wrong direction.
C’mon Juan! Whatya say??
~Dan Lee
I’m telling you, he’s got to be snorting hot sauce! Not only has Juan McCain created an all Spanish speaking version of his website, but he’s endorsing & appearing before a group who wants to silence anyone who disagrees with letting Mexican illegals flood over the border into the United States unfettered. That group is called “The National Council of La Raza“.
Michelle Malkin is this nation’s un-reputiated voice of reason on immigration, & she’s put together these Great Top Ten Reasons on why McCain should get his head out of the tequila vat & distance himself from La Raza.
Instead, McCain seems intent on doing some ideological laundering in exchange for algunos votos.
I hate to say it, but if McCain gets into office we’re screwed. If Hillary gets into office we’re double screwed, & if Obama gets in, this country is going to get “La Razed.”
~Dan Lee
I don’t mean to sound boring, but I feel like a broken record on this. Democrats have no loyalty, Hillary is old hat, & Barack Hussein Obama is a shiny new toy..
As I predicted before.. Obama will take the cake tonight, & then the real fun begins.. Say good bye to Shrillary.. ~Dan Lee
Michelle Malkin reports most excellently..
Hillary Clinton on Thursday stepped behind an Ohio diner counter, and appeared perfectly comfortable taking orders.
“I’ve waited tables before,” the Democratic presidential candidate acknowledged, as she chatted up the Rio Grande, Ohio, restaurant staff and wrote up an order, according to Nytimes.com
She was holding court at a Bob Evans restaurant in southeastern Ohio. The Times’ Caucus blog reports she discussed grits, stuffed pancakes among other diner fare delicacies.
“I might as well take a few orders,” she said, reaching for a pad.
Let me be the first to say that I would be equally as uncomfortable having Hillary as my waitress (given my less than favorable opinions of her to date) as would be with having her be my President. I do however hope that after Barack Hussein Obama, Oprah Windbag, & the rest of the Johnny come lately media sheep are finished with her, that she will still at least be able to work at the Capital Cafeteria. I’d much rather she was in a position of potentially creating health hazard, than in one of trying to remedy them. She wants to MAKE people buy health insurance. I say live free or die.

“I haven’t heard anything in closed session that makes me think we need the Protect America Act,” said Rep. Rush Holt (D-N.J.)
One has to wonder if Mr. Holt was in the country on 9/11 when the two big tall buildings were attacked & falled by terrorists in hijacked planes? I wonder how all the families of the people on those doomed planes, & in the trade towers, & all the others who were killed would feel about this idiotic statement from Rep. Rush Holt? Clearly he’s forgotten why we need FISA. He’s not qualified for his office, period.
It really is time to clean house this coming election people, because these arrogant so called “Representatives” have their heads so far up there where the sun don’t shine, that they’ve completely lost touch with reality. They somehow want us to believe that they are deserving of the right to review classified documents that by law, Intelligence and Judiciary Committee members have only been allowed to see. It’s just another way to stall this for political reasons, & if they can they’ll stall it all the way through the elections to try an take credit for it themselves after it’s all over.
Meanwhile our country & it’s citizens are at risk because certain types of surveillance cannot be done without FISA extended. It’s sad when you can’t trust your own appointed officials. It’s sad right now..
Here are the names of four of the Democrats that are irresponsibly toying with the safety of you, your children, & your fellow Americans, for political gain:
House Reps: Rush Holt (D-NJ.), John Tierney (D-Mass.), Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.), & finally House LoudSpeaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
~Dan Lee
Michelle Malkin has a great story on this here.
I’m starting to see what I expected to see after the shock of a McCain nomination began to wear off, & that is a weakening in the will of true conservatives to protest his nomination.
It was a sad fact that I knew I’d have to face at some point, but I guess I thought it would happen a little later in the year, after the Republican machine hammered on us holdouts long enough to really terrorize us about the looming Democrat & Liberal threats to our way of life.
I received a letter yesterday from an un-pledged delegate who will remain unnamed. This delegate was at one point vehemently opposed to throwing behind McCain just for the sake of following the pack, but now from the comments in their e-mail, they are clearly caving to peer pressure. That’s their personal decision, & I respect that, however come hell or high water, I will not be voting for any of the candidates in this years Presidential election.
I have made a promise to do a write in vote for Michelle Malkin, in protest to the fact that she understands the needs & policy issues of our country better than most of the Republican candidates, or the Republican Congress does. Her knowledge of the relevant issues is so extensive, comparing her to Democrats is not even worth discussing.
Michelle’s hard work & dedication notwithstanding, it is truly a sad state of affairs when we cannot even muster up a handful of elected officials who have as much honesty, integrity, or ability as does a political commentator who is the child of immigrant parents. Yes that’s right, she’s a first generation U.S. citizen with more concern for this nation & intimate knowledge of it’s constitutional challenges than most of the current old guard in Washington could even shake a stick at.
We have got to give these apparently spoiled children of Democracy a wake up call, & by passing spoiled children the mighty scepter of bureaucracy, we are doing them & ourselves a grave injustice.
I do not hate the Republican party. No, rather I’m a Loving student of it’s teachings who longs to see his teacher sober again. It has become drunken on the wine of big oil kingdoms, tempted away by the politically rhetorical power of selling false guilt via carbon credits, & fattened by the pork barrel gods who promise them a choice cut of meat, in return for a quiet show of deference.
I would rather die than be a part of this Republican party corruption, & I would rather my soul live than be a part of it’s advancement in it’s current state, so I will hold my ground until 2012, & in the meantime, I will campaign for sanity along Congressional lines.
I hope that some will hear my call to political arms, & will make their voices heard through the peaceful protest against the drunken stupor of our once Conservative fathers in the Republican Party.
We Conservatives are not here to compromise, but rather we are here to follow the rules & edicts of God himself for the goodness of mankind. When we take our eyes off of God as a political party, we become a candle in the wind, & a ship without a rudder.
With the lessons of God removed, who will survive? It’s time to put the inflated ego of our party back in check. Removing these thorns in our sides will be painful, but completely necessary. ~Dan Lee
40 year Democratic Party operative & Hillary Clinton adviser Harold Hicks has made the statement of all arrogant, power mongering statements today.
He said superdelegates would determine the outcome and side in larger numbers for Clinton, as they “have a sense of what it takes to get elected.” (In other words, you Democratic voters are too stupid.)
Even though averages of head-to-head polls on RealClearPolitics.com show Obama beating presumptive GOP nominee John McCain in a general election and Clinton losing, the Clinton camp is pushing their own self serving electability argument.
Ickes said superdelegates must “exercise their best judgment” about who can win the White House.
Translation:
“The people that voted are too stupid to know who can win, or who “should” win, so we’re going to override them by appealing to the Pontiffs of the Democratic Party.”
I’m hereby calling on Republicans who have not yet voted in the primaries, to vote against Hillary, by voting for Obama. As you can clearly see, the Clinton campaign could use a good dose of humility, since they believe the will of the voters to be insignificant & easily negotiable.
Close to half of the 700-plus Democratic superdelegates who could end up determining the party nominee are white men. Will these superdelegates who do not represent the diversity of the Democratic party go with the will of their own constituents? Or will they do the wrong thing & play favorites?
Republicans should vote for Obama in the remaining primary, & give them no excuse for their actions. In 2012 we will take the Presidency, the House & the Senate, as a result of the mass defection they will cause from the Democratic Party, because they ignored the voters.
The arrogance of Hillary Clinton & her power lusting machine, never ceases to amaze me. Stay tuned, I’m sure as I reported earlier, that she’s become the political suicide candidate, & they’ll be more shenanigans to come before the total crackup actually occurs. ~Dan Lee
The best way for me to describe what’s happening here, is for me to parody the song “End of the Road”, originally performed by Boyz II Men. So here it is re-written as a duet for your reading pleasure. I may just have to perform it later.. ~Dan Lee
“End of the Road” for Hillary
Hillary sings to the Super delegates:
We belong together
And you know that I’m right
Why do you play with my votes,
Why do you play with my mind?
Said we’d be forever
Said it’d never die
How could you love me and leave me
for that Dumbo, Obama guy?
Super Delegates sing in Chorus:
Girl we can’t sleep at night if we don’t do what’s right
Girl, each time we try you just break down and cry
The voters have said; oh I’d rather be dead
Then elect you this time around
Chorus:
Although we’ve come to the end of the road
Still you can’t let go
It’s unnatural, you keep haunting us, we’re not wanting you
So we’ve Come to the end of the road
Still you won’t let go
It’s unnatural, you keep haunting us, we’re not wanting you
SuperDels take the next verse too:
Girl, I know you Still love us,
You just don’t realize
You’ve never been here before
It’s only your first time
Maybe you’ll forgive us, hmm
Maybe you’ll try
Now is the time too forgive as we suck up
to the new guy
Girl, you’ll love us again like you loved us before
but next time we want you to love us much more
We’re Super Dels, we can make your life hell
So baby, just don’t let us down
Repeat Chorus
(spoken word breakdown by Jessie Jackson )
Girl we’re here for you
All those times of night when you just cry
cuz we just run out with that Obama fella
Baby we knew about it, we just didn’t care
You just don’t understand how much we love you do you?
We’re here for you
We caucus members weren’t out to cheat on you all night
Like you did to us in Florida with the Primaries baby, but that’s all right
Hey, we love you anyway
And we’re still gonna be here for you ’till our dying days baby
Right now, were just so torn baby
Coz you just won’t take a Cabinet Position with Obama
Will you? just come back to us
(lonely)
Yes baby our hearts are lonely
(lonely)
Our hearts hurt baby
(lonely)
Yes we feel your pain too
Baby please
Obama Grabs the mic:
Lay down you head on my political bed
And baby just don’t let me go
Repeat Chorus
