School vultures...errr... vouchers. The Reich has
wanted these for decades.
Healthcare reform. Even an empty suit couldn't fail
to pass SOMETHING regarding healthcare reform.
A stronger dollar. A little deficit reduction will easily
take care of that, as would interest rates HIGHER
than inflation.
The last time I was in a local bank -- like yesterday --
they were advertising a 2.4% rate on CDs... when
inflation is running over 3%.
So if you buy dollars you're guaranteed to lose money
every month....
The sky-high food prices hit here.
They're already way up. When Bush first stole office,
for example, milk was still about $2 a gallon... just
under for, say, 1%.
It's doubled in price.
Oh, I know, prices change from region to region, but
that's what we've seen here. Milk prices have doubled
since Bush stole office.
Those food riots in places like Haiti? They're not really
about shortages, they're about prices.
Trouble in Africa, most likely some kinf of invented
crisis.
I'm NOT saying that Obama will order up a crisis, and
then try to take advantage of it. More than likely he'll
simply wait for something, and then order up the media
to play it like it was a slow news day and the problem
in Africa is a fat intern.
And he's against them
http://pewforum.org/religion08/compare.php?Issue=Education
In a February 2008 interview Obama said that he supports charter
schools "as a way to foster competition in the public school system."
However, he said, he remains skeptical of private school voucher
programs because they could lead to "further stratification of the
schools … without any net improvement." Obama's campaign later
clarified his stance, issuing a release saying that "Senator Obama has
always been a critic of vouchers. … Throughout his career, he has
voted against voucher proposals and voiced concern for siphoning off
resources from our public schools." Obama personally believes in both
evolution and the biblical story of creation and says, "I don't think
science generally is incompatible with Christian faith."

Actually, they're about shortages. Haiti is the poorest nation in the
Western Hemisphere, and cannot afford to import the food it needs. The
shelves are empty in the stores, and the government is failing to
distribute aid in a timely manner.

So, Darfur, Zimbabwe, the continental AIDS crisis, Namibia, etc aren't
crises already?

Africa has enough problems that need addressing right now, thank you.

I feel sorry for Obama or who ever gets in.
And if the roof doesn't fall on him or her, the next pres wills surely
get hit with it.
And what do we do when things go bad? They blame it all on the pres.
Like he or she can pull crude and NG out their ass?
Sure oil goes up and down with the BS they hand us. Some of the BS is
just greedy excuses. Other times the BS is not BS and based in truth.
But, no matter how we cut it, fossil fuels are a non renewable
resource and we are using 31 billion barrels a year of crude
worldwide...and usage will only gets worse as time goes
by....'Chindia' is just starting out!
Maybe I should not feel too bad for politicians. After all they are
ego based power hungry individuals. I imagine they all know about peak
oil. They probably view it as a game of musical chairs. Give me power
for a day and I only hope the roof falls in on the next guy and the
music wont stop on my presidency.
Nothing they can do anyway. To do anything substantive would cause a
financial and population backlash of unimaginable proportions.
And what we could do, even with drastic measures, would not cure the
problem, but only slow things down. WE CAN'T CHANGE....IT IS ALL WE
KNOW!
We have the tiger by the tail, we CAN'T let go and all hell is going
to break loose soon
When the subject turns to sustainability...lets be honest, we only pay
it lip service.
We talk of living in a sustainable world, yet our actions betray our
true feelings. All we have to do is to look at the stock market to
see what happens when growth declines even a little.
Even if a company yields stable earning, but does not grow its
earnings it is looked down upon. Stability and balance is part of a
sustainable footprint, yet we shun such balance.
A good book that discusses concepts of sustainability is: 'Peak
Everything' by Richard Heinberg
America is built on debt and spending.
Without compulsive spending and conspicuous consumption we would fail
as a country.
70% of our 'economic heath,' better termed as 'economic sickness' is
based on consumer spending. When the consumer can't compulsively spend
any longer our economy collapses...we are not a healthy country.
Even if we did find out how to burn water for energy, petrochemicals
make up a large portion of crude's importance to mankind. Roughly 9%
of every barrel of crude goes to petrochemical use. If we stopped
burning crude this instant, we would still suck the wells dry, albeit
not as quickly, just from petrochemical use.
Some work has been done with making plastics from corn, but it can't
touch the variety of plastic and rubber products that crude produces.
http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/plastic.html
So even if we all stop driving we will just be postponing the
inevitable that our artificial way of living is going to change in the
not so distant future.
A partial list of products made from crude:
Solvents Diesel Motor Oil Bearing Grease
Ink Floor Wax Ballpoint Pens Football Cleats
Upholstery Sweaters Boats Insecticides
Bicycle Tires Sports Car Bodies Nail Polish Fishing lures
Dresses Tires Golf Bags Perfumes
Cassettes Dishwasher Tool Boxes Shoe Polish

Cold cream Movie film Soft Contact lenses Drinking Cups
Fan Belts Car Enamel Shaving Cream Ammonia
Refrigerators Golf Balls Toothpaste Gasoline
From this list we can see that we are still massively depend on crude
for our non sustainable lifestyle.
There is no replacement for crude...crude is in the details of our
life.
We got other problems right in line with peak oil. NG and crude are
right in bed with each other.
Have you ever thought about how much of our life is dependent on
natural gas for cooking, heating and hot water?
We will run out of natural gas, just as we deplete our crude supplies
in the near future.
Natural gas is a raw material in many of our products we depend on.
Almost all the helium we produce comes from natural gas.
Propane, synthetic fertilizers, ammonia?
They are totally dependent on natural gas.
Our population boom was fueled by synthetic fertilizers made from
natural; gas. Once the gas dries up so does the fertilizer and a
shortage of fertilizer equals a shortage of food.
Natural; gas is also used as an energy source to produce steel, glass,
paper, clothing, brick, electricity

He also talks about "reforming" NAFTA, even though his
campaign was in secret contact with the Canadians,
telling them that it was nothing more than election year
posturing.
And he lied about Rezko and the Rev. Wright, too.
Did you know that Obama FAVORS giving states the
power to keep out natural gas terminals if they don't
want one? That what he told Oregon's voters anyway.
Only problem is, Obama voted FOR Bush's bill which
stripped the states of their voice in the siting process.
So he's on record lying about his finances... lying about
the people around him... lying about his policy positions...
Please, you're wasting your time. Someone has to
already be fooled by Obama in order to be fooled by
you now.
Go preach to the converted.

What part of "like yesterday" did you have trouble understanding?

I explained why. I don't accept the word of a documented liar

Here. I'll quote you doing exactly that:
> Afraid of the facts?
The quote amounts to the words of a documented liar. The link
was the URL to the page where you cut & pasted the words of
a documented liar from.
What "facts" are you pretending to have introduced here?
Why are you so emotionally disturbed that you can't see any of
this yourself?
Obama has already cost you more than any normal, decent
human being should ever be willing to pay. Get out NOW, before

So, in other words, you're taking a post where I'm yanking on
people's legs, pretending to channel Nostradamous & posting
patented "Nostradamousized" text (run through the Babelfish
online translator until it was suitably incomprehensable), and
you're pretending it was serious.
Put another way: You are forced by the qualtity of the candidate
that you support to stoop to lying.
Ironically, the "Nostradamous" thing was to prove a point. Namely,
that so many of the so-called "Skeptics" simply auto-reject every
claim. Seems that you're claiming that the exact opposite is the
opposite, and YOU accepted every clain at face value...
.....or, like I said, Obama is so shitty that you're forced to
stooping
to *Anything*, no matter how low, in order to justify your support of
him.
Wouldn't it be easier to simply support someone else?
I mean, when you've already reached the level of the Bushbots, and
the PRIMARIES aren't over yet. it sure looks to thinking people like
you need to dump the guy.

Why are you pretending this is so difficult? It's not. You can

Simply cut & paste the cites you want me to back up with
cites. Oh. It would also help if you explained the problem that
you're imagining.
Don't pussy out on me now, the way you did with your past
opinion on Obama. You're pretending that Obama (the
conservative "Family Values" candidate) was targeted by
Canada's conservative government.
Or do you mean that the Canadian are "conservative" in the
same sense as Obama is a pro-business "conservative.
Because, as we all know, we've suffered from a real shortage
of pro-business conservatives these last 7 years...

I recently had newsgroup problems and have lost all newsgroup headers

So, there's a deadline to reveal the vote totals?
Pay attention for once.
You're hell bent on accepting *hearsay*. You were not there, you were
not party to whatever conversation actually took place, you are relying
on a memo allegedly reporting what someone said. It's no better than
"Jesus is real because the New Testament says so".
You're hell bent on believing what a Conservative government says. You
dismiss what actual, oh I don't know, "liberals" say about just about
everything and accept as gospel what the right has to say.
This is suspicious behavior in someone who claims to be a Democrat.
You love to ignore that the man who claims the Obama camp said this
*ALSO* claims the Hillary camp said similar things. You called Mickey a
"liar" because she brought this one up.
Never *mind* that the aid to Harper has said this about BOTH candidates.
You accept only the one story but not the other.
No, no conspiracy is necessary. But opposition parties *in* *Canada*
were after the Harper government for what *they* perceived as an attempt
to interfere in the US election and prejudice it in favor of the
conservatives down here. This is no Big Bad Conspiracy. It's what we
call "dirty politics".
You don't seem to like that I've actually gone and watched clips from
the sniping up there. Damn those intertubes!

<snork>
The DLC which the Clintons built is pro-business and conservative. I
don't care *what* Hillary says now, the truth is Bill pushed NAFTA and
she approved and sung its praises.
I remember Clinton fast tracking NAFTA. He pushed hard as he could to
get it. The one we have. Right now.
Why should I buy any of this? You've got hearsay from a bunch of
conservatives who are pro-NAFTA. Big whoopee. And you, yourself, bitch
about Obama being "pro-business" and "conservative" when Hillary's DLC.
I mean, sheesh...
