Crocs

Two crocodiles were sitting at the side of the swamp near the  lake.

 The smaller one turned to the bigger one and said,  "I can't

 understand how you can be so much bigger than me. We're the same

 age; we  were the same size as kids. I just don't get it."

 "Well," said the big croc, "what have you been eating?" 

 "Politicians, same as you," replied the small croc.

Hmm. Well, where do you catch them?" "Down the other side of the

swamp near 

the parking lot by the capitol.""Same here. Hmm. How do you catch

them?"

"Well, I crawl up under one of their Lexus cars and wait for

one to unlock the car door Then I jump out, grab them by the leg,

shake the shit out of them and eat 'em!"  "Ah!" said the big

crocodile, "I

think I see your problem. You're not getting any real nourishment.

See, by 

the time you finish shaking the shit out of a politician, there's

nothing 

left but an asshole and a briefcase."

It's just too bad that all the little girls can't be this happy

If you've never seen it

there's a program on tv called Intervention that purports to follow some poor sap around under the guise of a documentary film crew, supposedly to chronicle the life of an addict. The individual haplessly exposes his innermost feelings and vulnerabilities all the while exhibiting the self centered mindset that it's everyone Else's problem and not theirs, that they aren't hurting anybody but themselves and not seeing the pain they are really causing everybody...then they are subjected to a round table of their friends and relatives who attempt to enlighten the victim and steer them into therapy and hopefully free them of the monkey they so happily seem to want to carry around on their back.

President Bush, in one of his many speeches, pointed out that the U.S. was addicted to oil and that something needed to be done, and that's as far as it got...

All the little Republicans continued on their merry little way, bee-boppin and skit-skattin while they lost everything they held dear, giving all their wealth to foreigners so they could feed their habit for the good life...

And now, just like the addict in the program, they are suddenly faced with the hard cruel reality of the situation and they exhibit the very same behavior that the the victim does...surprise, denial, rage at the cost of their addiction, the guilt of everyone but them. All they can think of to scream is we need more, more, more...when instead they should have been looking for the cure to their ills...and endeavored to develop alternatives they fought tooth and nail to derail them...

And even in the face of reality, with all those near and dear in attendance they can only think of one thing...we need to drill for more oil. Waste the nations beauty and resources to suit their selfish needs...People with vast wealth whining that they can't fuel their great big SUV's because of the price of gasoline when for the price of the precious fuel they pay to fill up the vehicle would more than make the payment on an alternative energy automobile...The could still keep the land yaht for special needs.

So until they realize that we don't need more drilling but more research and a lot more development, they won't come to grips with the depth of their dilemma...and maybe we will all be a little better off...

Why do they continue to waste our time and money...

constantly whining that not being able to drill in the pristine wilderness or awesome grandeur of the California coastline is causing the price of gasoline to go throught the roof.

 

This is all just the latest chapter of the Republicrackhead party to obfuscate the real problems that are facing this nation in the rundown to the selection of the next man to run the greatest nation on earth...

 

The oil men in the white house are merely trying to line their pockets with as much moolah as they can in the waneing days of their failed regime much as Saddam did with the billions he hid in the sand on his way out...

 

The real controversy over drilling in the wilderness isn't about getting the oil out as much as securing it so that it cannot be drilled thereby driving the cost of energy even higher...

 

The price of a gallon of gas is where it's at due to the bungling of this administrations handling of the economy and the war...the dollar is in the crapper and we are spending an even greater sum to maintain our occupation forces in Iraq...all the while Afghanistan slowly slips into chaos...

 

Only when we tell these slackers to get off their asses and deal with the real problems confronting the nation will the situation get any better...the first step is to get the obstructionists out...when we stop worrying about who's putting their hand over their flag pins while they are saying the pledge while standing on a monument of the ten commandments during a homosexual wedding will the nation be able to move forward and resolve some the problems facing us...

I'm Voting Republican

You would have to be seriously simpleminded to believe

that if the oil companies had access to all the oil the republicans want to give them that they would be any more inclined to sell it for less than the going rate...in all reality they would only be reporting even more egregiously obscene profits and the price of gas at the pump would still be going through the roof...

The only way to persuade them to reduce the price is to show em we don't need it...to do that we need to develope other forms of energy to propell our autos and support our living needs...

The price of gas is where it's at not because of lack of supply but lack of intellegence at the top tiers of our government and their policies...instability in the world is causing the price of fuel to rise more than the availability of crude...

Only when we get the oil men and their cronies out of the white house and we keep them out will we be able to more clearly see the path to energy independence...

The oil companies aren't even drilling in the areas they have available to them...

We need leadership that recognizes the need for a new national urgency much like we saw in the sixties when we were confronted with the prospects of being second world wide in the exploration of space...

We need leadership who are committed to seeing the U.S. independent of fossil fuels by the end of the decade...more oil wells won't accomplish the dream...

Watch Barack Lead the Pledge of Allegiance:

Bush attends groundbreaking for $100M 'earmark'

By ANDREW TAYLOR, Associated Press Writer

Wed Jun 4, 7:56 PM ET

WASHINGTON - President Bush is on a crusade against lawmakers' pet projects, but on Thursday he plans to attend a groundbreaking ceremony for a $100 million whopper that was slipped into a spending bill almost four years ago.

The new headquarters for the U.S. Institute of Peace will be a dramatic addition to the Washington skyline, designed by world-renowned architect Moshe Safdie. Additional privately-raised funds bring the total cost of the project to $185 million, institute spokesman Ian Larsen says.

Bush will be joined by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who have a far more sympathetic view of Congress' parochial ways than does the president.

Also slated to attend were two less conspicuous but significantly more important players in getting the project its $100 million: former Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, and Jim Dyer, the former top Appropriations Committee aide who helped grease support in the House for the project.

The project — an "earmark" in congressional parlance — raised eyebrows when it was funded in November 2004 as part of a massive omnibus spending bill. It was unusually large, and unlike many earmarks, its top sponsors remained silent about their roles. Only later did it become clear that it was mostly Stevens' doing.

The earmark was one of the last items slipped into the catchall spending bill late at night in House-Senate negotiations, a practice advocates of earmark reform slam because any opponents of such pet projects are denied any chance to try to strip them out of a bill.

It was contained in a hastily-assembled miscellaneous title of the omnibus, studded with cross-outs and handwritten language, including one provision containing Dyer's name and fax number.

The White House calls the project "excellent and important" and dismisses any suggestion that appearing at the groundbreaking ceremony conflicts with the president's ongoing anti-earmark crusade.

"Even if this project were funded through a so-called earmark, it does not make it a bad project unworthy of the president," said White House budget office spokeswoman Corinne Hirsch. "Yes, it should have been funded through regular appropriations, but we can support a project and still disagree with the exact method in which it was funded."

The U.S. Institute of Peace is an independent, nonpartisan, national institution established by Congress. Its Web site says its "goals are to help prevent and resolve violent international conflicts, promote post-conflict stability and development, and increase peacebuilding capacity."

The institute was the facilitating organization for the Iraq Study Group that was co-chaired by former Secretary of State James A. Baker III and former Rep. Lee H. Hamilton, D-Ind
