Joe says he’s disappointed with the high court’s decision on the 2nd amendment. That in itself tells me the court got it right. Joe never gets anything right, especially in the last decade or two.
Dana Parino Has Quote of the Day
I was watching The Five this evening as they opened with a discussion on The Supreme Court decision on carry permits. They quoted the mayor who said something like everyone will be afraid to go to sleep at night. To which Dana Perino asked “Why are they afraid of law bidding people? “
Gutfeld had his perspective with the contrast of fearing the armed law bidding people while they release criminals, armed or not.
Then there is the statement quoted about New York turning into the wild west. To this I have 2 questions. Isn’t that pretty much the case now. More importantly, what will the gun control crowd say when the shootings decrease after permitting more people to carry guns?
My guess is that they will do what they can to keep that stat well concealed.
Some Need to be Reminded
Some forget the day when Obama said it would do no good in responce to the cry of the people to drill baby drill. However, I remember it well.
Today, we know he was wrong. President Trump turned the oil industry loose and they drove oil down to 30 dollars a barrel. At one point, the price was even driven negative for a few days.
Then Joe stepped into the Oval Office and declared war on fossil fuel and the price has more than doubled. It was no accident. It was by design and Joe will only be happy when American oil ceases.
He claims he wants the price of gasoline go down while he and his cohorts do all they can to drive the prices up and out of sight.
To get the price to receed is simple for those of us who remember, DRILL, BABY, DRILL!!
As an aside, do you notice how Joe blames the little guy running gas stations, Putin and the oil companies.
Some station owners are loosing money on gas sales. Putin is thrilled that Joe drove the price up. It is virtually financing his attack on Ukraine. And, of course, the oil companies would do much better if Joe would simply step out of the way.
No More Fossil Fuels
Actually it’s easy. We were surviving without fossil fuels long ago. Before coal, we used wood. Before kerosene lamps, we used oil we got from whales. At one time, we used fat from animals to make candles.
It might seem strange to some, but we used to run trains off wood. Even today, some race cars use burn alcohol. If we want to devote over half our farm land to growing corn, maybe our regular cars could burn alcohol too. I have heard it burns cleaner than gasoline.
Then too, alcohol could also be used to power generation stations. Then again we could go back 2000 years and burn olive oil. That would make the olive farmers happy.
When I was a kid, I really liked riding my bicycle but I only had a few miles to go to school. I’m afraid I would not have been able to peddle 40 miles to work the last decade before my retirement. I guess I might have taken a bus but for three things. The nearest bus was 10 miles from my house. I worked nights when busses didn’t run. Finally, the bus routes didn’t work for me.
Besides, if I relied on a bus, it would mean using that horribly fossil fuel.
Some folks had the bright idea of using the atom. That was going well until 3 mile island… the there was the horrible tragedy in Japan, the earthquake followed by the tsunami. If you’ll excuse the expression, it’s made many a little gun shy.
I sort of like the idea of going back to horses. But I really don’t think many would like the smelly dirty streets. Well, maybe we could use the maneuver to generate gas.
But we can’t do that. That is natural gas… not a fossil fuel but basically the same thing, only not as old.
18 cents
When gas $2.00 a gallon, it would have been something of a relief. Now with it around $5.00 a gallon, not so much.
Everyone Should be Upset at This
Just heard Joe wants to outlaw vaping and nicotine in cigarettes. Now, I’m just as anxious as the next guy to rid the world of them cancer sticks. I have seen what they do to people but most people survive their 1st cigarette. Indeed, many live into their 70s or 80s as they suck on on the things.
On the other hand Joe will not lift a little finger to prevent fentenyl from entering the US and killing thousands of our youth with 1 dose. I think Joe will need to explain that one day and will realize he really made a bad decision.
Personally, I think anyone convicted of distributing the stuff should spend 20-25 years in prison. Moreover, maximum pressure should be taken to keep China from fighting its chemical war on our country.
Burning Fuel
John Kerry flies private jet aircraft, a lot. I did a little checking around. His plane burns likely 6 to 7 gallons of fuel per minute, about what I burn in a week.
I think before he has the right to tell me anything about saving fuel, he needs to start flying commercial.
If he wants to go around boring holes in the sky at speeds approaching the speed of sound, i have no problems with it. However, if he wants to be the spokesman of global warming, he really should stop contributing so much to warming the globe.
I Just Might Have Been Wrong
I hate to admit it but I might have been wrong about sealing our border. Opening the border just might have been an act of genius. I just found out that, so far this year, they caught fifty men on the terrorists lists.
What do you know old Joe has built what appears to be an effective terrorist trap.
Then again, if they caught 50, how many got through? Even worse, who else got through? I don’t guess we’ll know until they terrorize or whatever their purpose was for sneaking through. Then we’ll all find out together on the 5:00 O`clock news.
This Time, I Actually Agree With Joe
It is a real rarity. It occurs less frequently than a blue moon but I actually agree with someone he said. A recession is possibly avoidable.
The trick is that he must act quickly. 1st he must do all he can to produce as much domestic oil as we can. This will remove about 20 percent of the cause of inflation.
2nd, stop printing money. By the, it is important to remember that increasing credit has the same results of printing money. It increases the spending of the public
3rd, shut down the border and send the illegal back. It cost lots to support them at every level.
4th, strp the senseless regulations. The only ones that truly benefit from them are larger corporations and the lawyers that work for them.
5th, stop pushing that green stuff.
Finally, stop taxing all those who actually make things so much. In the end taxes impede and even drive business and productivity away. Both decrease employment.
In other words, stop messing things up.
Considering the above, we may as well pray and start bracing for the worst.
Contesting Elections
Considering some of the things said, considering some of the accusations made during the Jan 6th so-called hearing, does that mean that the dems will no longer contest elections. I mean Gore contested his loss all the way to the Supreme Court, all the time hoping that his army of recounters destroyed all the chads they could.
Then, of course, there is ms Clinton who still thinks she beat Trump. Then there is that Georgia race for governor.
Really? Are we supposed to believe the dems never contest a contest. Are we supposed to act as if it never happened before.
By the, Clinto also tried to have her contest overturned in Congress. If it was OK for Clinton, why not for Trump.
In electronics we have a name for a component that only works one way, a diode. Mechanics have a tool that works one way, a rarcher. Those that design cities also provide us with one way streets.
Do we really need-way politicians, judges and prosecutors too? Even worse,, what about the one-way news media. I mean, now with Biden in the Oval Office, where are all those tough probing questions. If the current crowd of reporters can’t think of so much as one, i can think of a few. I’m sure some of you can too.
