Democratic Disunity

So, the Democratic convention has been going for the past few days. I'm not sure if you've been watching or not, but boy has it been funny to watch as the Democrats struggle to unite under what could be one of the most disastrous presidents this country has ever seen. If any of these speakers are trying to show off how capable Obama is, they are failing. Every single one is still echoing the same tired theme of "hope" and "change we can believe in". No one is talking about specific policies that will help Americans. Their pie in the sky dreams about our energy policy magically changing from oil to renewable sources is laughable. How do you plan on putting "put 1 million new plug-in/hybrid cars on the road" Obama? Give us some specifics!

Anywho, I thought you might like this little film. Turns out the Obama campaign is threatening to sue anyone who plays this, and sadly CNN and Fox News are complying.

McCain's V.P is big for GOP

McCain's Vice Presidential pick and Obama's are coming down to the end. I do not believe that for Obama it is a make or brake decision as it could be for Sen. McCain. The best thing Obama could do is pick Sen. Hillary Clinton, it would, I think bring more of the women vote, not as much is you would think, but maybe just enough. When she was still in, there was a poll out that she lost the 35-50 year old women voters which is a big enough number to effect you at the poll, but the older women are revolting against Obama and have a web site up that they are supporting McCain because of what happened in the primary; I think it will attract a lot of women voters that are really mad at the Democrat party for throwing her under the bus for a black guy with very little experience, after all she had to put up with all of Bills affairs which she had to cover up every other day. I think Obama will pick Evan Bayh or Joe Biden, I believe that they will be is 2 final choices. Biden is known to be a real jerk and Bayh has little experience, Obama needs someone who complements him. John McCain if he wants to win will pick Mitt Romney he has most well known name out there and from everything that is buzzing in the political world, he is the number 1 pick among the Conservatives. He will carry Michigan and possibly Massachusetts both of which have a lot of electoral votes. If McCain wants to lose pick Joe Lieberman he is good on some issues, but there will be a Conservative revolt like you haven't seen. I think that the McCain people put it out there that he might pick a pro choice candidate so that when he picks Romney the evangelical Conservative will have a sigh of relief when he picks Mitt.

Gas Prices

If you're like me, the high price of gas is on your mind constantly. I found this little graphic. Now obviously, I don't believe that just because the Democrats are in control of Congress, gas prices will automatically go up. We can see they were on the way up since Bush took office. But, I definitely blame these high prices on the allegience of the Dems to the fanatical environmentalists. I say fanatical, because everyone realizes how important the environment is to our health. It's the fanatics that will shut down highway construction because of a snail, or fight against even wind power because a few birds might die.

The fact of the matter is, our economy runs on oil. As much as I'd love to see alternative forms of energy being used in our country, it's going to take time. Obama somehow thinks that waving his magic wand is going to get us off oil, which is laughable at best. We need to get as much oil as we can from our own backyard while we figure out different forms of energy. With the situation in Iraq improving every day, this issue is turning out to be a lifesaver for the Republicans because they are 100% correct to want to bring our oil to market. Even if we as Americans don't see a drop of this oil it will benefit us greatly. The world oil markets will see that the supply of oil is increasing, thus bringing prices down. Also, we are currently importing $700 billion dollars of oil every year. Anything we can do to export some of our oil will lessen our trade deficits, and make the dollar more powerful. You want change? Hope? Yeah, don't vote for Obama, because he is part of the problem.

Mexican soldiers enter state, hold border agent at gunpoint

Hello everyone i hope you have enjoyed reading The Gripester post's; I was going to take some more time off, But I heard about this and had to talk about it. It comes from the The Arizona Republic , It has to do with the Mexican Border, and how one of OUR OWN agent's was held at gun point by 4 Mexican soldiers. (Did I mention it was on OUR OWN SIDE) How dare our Government allow this to happen this is not the first time that Mexican Soldier's have crossed our border, this is the 40th time since October. This situation has been out of control for too long and needed to be dealt with years ago. The violence that has been going on there has to stop, and the only way its going to is by putting our Military on the border. Further more I call upon our elected officials in Washington to prosecute and throw in jail the Mayor's who proclaim their city to be quote "A Sanctuary city" (Thank you Mayor Gavin Newsome) and directly violating Federal laws. Some of you may remember the story of the 2 border patrol agents who shot a well know drug dealer in the butt while running back to the border, and the drug dealer gets immunity to come back to the U.S and testify against the 2 border patrol agents and they end up in prison serving a 12 year sentence and the drug dealer gets 5 years. Mean while they put them in a jail where one gets almost beaten to death and President Bush is well a where of this an stands ideally by.

Screwing liberals, one dollar at a time.

Hey everyone! Boy did I find a gem today on a facebook ad!

Here is a simple way to freeing Moveon.org of their cash. Right now they are giving away free Obama pins, postage included. I'm figuring each pin is costing them $2 for advertising, postage, and manufacturing. Every person that orders one and throws it away will have wasted some of the money that normally would have been used to push their extreme left agenda. To order one, click here ...

I'll keep an eye out for more of these easy ways to prevent the infection of liberalism!

The Gripester

Hello readers, I am going to be doing some guest blogging here for the next little while. Just call me the gripester. I am far more libertarian than Political Junk'y is actually, and I think with our two opinions should work well together.

My favorite topics to write about include:
economic blunders our government makes,
why capitalism is the answer to every problem in the world, including poverty and the supposed threat "global warming" poses,
and left-wing idiocy in general.

This should be a good time for all, and I hope you enjoy reading our posts.

Union's to political.

As I drive down Redwood Road and 21st south freeway, and drive by the the labor union building I see political signs on their lawn and ALL of them are for democrat candidates. I think that it is sad how political that they have become. Labor Unions were never meant to be a political organizational power house, they were meant to help the people working in sweat shops. I think that they have become a dangerous organization. This is from Unionfacts.org "Every day, millions of union members have money taken from their paychecks to support some union presidents' political agenda. In 1996, Rutgers economics professor Leo Troy estimated that union political expenditures totaled about $500 million in each election cycle. More recently, the National Institute for Labor Relations Research estimated that total union political expenditures reached $925 million in the 2004 cycle. Over time, this has added up: According to The Center for Responsive Politics, eight of the top ten all-time political contributors are labor unions.
Labor leaders have made the use of employee money for political causes a popular practice — but it's far less popular among the public and the members themselves."

Do nothing Congress.

There is a reason that the Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid congress has a 9 % approval rating, they are worthless. When their hulling Big tobacco up to Capital Hill instead of dealing with the energy crisis that is plaguing America and the economy. And Obama telling us that if we fill up our tires that we will save as much oil as we need to drill for; give me a break that is absurd. So now it’s our fault that we use a lot of oil because WE don’t inflate our TIRES. When is congress going to take the blame for anything, I mean we haven’t built a refinery in 30years; Pelosi and Reid are doing everything they can to not let a vote come to the floor.

Congratulations Rush Limbaugh!!!

I have a job that allows me to listen to a lot of radio, particularly talk radio. My favorite person to listen to is Rush Limbaugh. There is a reason that he is the number one and has been for a long time. He is a great and intelligent man; he has a gift to see the truth in most cases and tell you what the main stream Media or as Rush calls them “The Drive by Media”, wont tell you. Rush has changed the face of media forever. I don’t think anyone can deny that he helped get the Republicans elected in 1994; I for one believe that if wasn’t for him the Clinton years would have been a lot worse. Rush is responsible for the likes of Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and lets not forget the Fox News Channel. I for one look forward to 10:00 am KNRS 570 am everyday. I would like to congratulate Rush on 20 years of Broadcast Excellence.
