Pres. Obama served his re-election campaign over the people and interests of America as a whole. He has turned down the Keystone Pipeline project. This gives the Republicans a good issue. Obama turns down real jobs for imaginary green ones. His administration doles out taxpayer money to failing solar companies in a nanosecond, but can’t approve a privately funded pipeline that has been studied for 3 years.
Of course, Obama wants it both ways. He is turning it down now to keep the greenies on board his re-election bus. Then he tells Canada it isn’t in our national interest at this time. He is telling the unions that he might change his mind after he is re-elected. Then it won’t matter if the greenies are thrown under the bus.
So Obama has pissed off Canada, given a nod to China, polluted the world much more with Chinese refineries and oil tankers, thrown away real jobs, sold out to the Saudies, and kept the cost of gasoline for us normal people “necessarily high” as he is want to do. Way to go, PresBO.

Don’t tell me an Aggie can’t read the handwriting on the wall. Maybe he’s a little slow, but he got the message. Come on back to Texas.
I don’t really know what to think about his endorsement of Gingrich. Still trying to process it.

ABC is putting out a story that there was some internal debate about whether or when to show the interview of Newt’s former wife, Marianne. I bet that was the fastest debate ever.
ABC News Person: “Hey, should we really run an interview of the ex-wife of a current presidential candidate?
Other ABC News Person: “Newt is a Republican.”
ABC News Person: “Run it.”
Remember when your sex life wasn’t really an issue having to do with one’s ability to govern? Oh, yeah. Clinton was a Democrat.

Shame on Perry and Gingrich for slamming Romney as being a vulture capitalist. Both should know what happens without vultures. You are up to your ass in decomposing flesh. In fact, if Romney was a vulture capitalist then he has some good skills that are really in need.
Think of it. Romney took over nearly bankrupt companies. He then reorganized them, cut out benefits, slimmed them down. In some cases the companies survived and in some cases the companies died. He may get the chance to take over our inefficient and bankrupt federal government. He will slim it down, cut out the fat, eliminate benefits, cut stupid programs. He will have to cut the over-promised and under-funded pensions of government workers. Maybe he can get the government to live off less than it collects in taxes, thus producing a “profit”. I know, PROFIT is a bad word to Obama. Also, note that Romney didn’t do this with taxpayer’s money like Obama did for GM, Solyndra, etc.
If Romney has this type of experience, I would consider it a feature, not a problem for him.

Hilda Solis, Secretary of Labor, has announced Obama’s program to give $20 million in grants to help ex-cons get hired. While everyone deserves a second chance, is now the time to be handing out money for such things. I guess he is going for the jailbird vote. I am pretty certain this is a backdoor program to reincarnate ACORN as it will be doled out to community organizations in poor neighborhoods. I guess that means ex-cons will be signing dead and imaginary people up to vote again.
If you are the average Joe who has lost his job in this awful economy, don’t expect too much help. However, if you have some prison tats, Obama may give you a leg up.

The pictures leaking out about an 09 White House Halloween party are interesting. The party is being billed (after the fact) as common knowledge and as being for the families of the military. Has the White House ever withheld pictures of things done for military short of bedside visits? Are there pictures of the party that show anonymous military dependents? The only pictures show the celebrity lineup with Sasha and Malia. If this was indeed only for military dependents, show the pictures and clear it all up.
Does anyone know if Johnny Depp and Tim Burton are great supporters of the military?

Its going to be a year of change for our family. Our second son has graduated and is going out into the world. Fingers crossed. Our third son is graduating in May and going into the Army.
My husband of 31 years was laid off as of Dec. 31st. He has never been without a job our entire time together. He has never had to look for a job as the company he worked for when we met was bought by a larger company, that was then bought by a major corporation. So, changes are afoot. I am looking forward to something new and exciting coming into our lives.
2012 will be an interesting year. As you know, there are predictions that the end of the world is upon us. If things go badly in November, it really won’t matter too much. Regardless, I hope this is a Happy New Year for all of us.
