Obama: Mission Accomplished–BP Oil Spill Clean Up Ending

Friday, August 6th, 2010

EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson and Admiral Thad Allen, U.S. Coast Guard (Ret) and National Incident Commander in charge of the BP Oil Spill Clean-up—these two had time to embrace but have they failed in their jobs?

Day 109: President Obama Mission Accomplished–BP Oil Spill Clean-Up “Coming To An End.”

Harold Cline may not agree with the President? Oil collected from by Cline by vacuuming it into a drum at Barataria Bay on the Louisiana Coast last Saturday, 31 July

For two weeks, BP Oil has been claiming that they’ve been unable to find oil contaminating the Gulf of Mexico—it would seem that someone isn’t telling the truth?

Oil from the BP Deepwater Horizon is seen entering Mud Lake inside the Louisiana Coast, from Barataria Bay on 31 July—nearly a week after BP claimed that clean-up crews couldn’t find oil. It appears that they were not looking very hard.

Another Obama Crisis—Another Federal Bailout

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

Yet another Obama crisis—$26.1 Billion Dollar Federal Bailout for Teachers Unions just in time for the November mid-term Congressional elections.

Next week, Members of Congress will rush back to Washington and acquiesce to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, on this latest taxpayer dollar bailout giving away $655 Million to states such as Massachusetts so that state lawmakers can revive some 250 state programs that residents are unwilling to fund and pay for themselves.

What advice did Democrat-Socialists receive from Obama’s Federal Debt Commission regarding this latest federal bailout?

Erskine Bowles Co-Chairman of the Commission of Fiscal Responsibility and Reform said in July, that States shouldn’t count on Washington for a federal bailout because Washington just doesn’t have the financial resources.

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

TSA Agent at ORD (Chicago O’Hare) looking for hanging chads?

Ever since the TSA XXX Full Body Imaging Scanners were installed at airports, TSA has been telling passengers that Strict Privacy Safeguards are in place and that the images can not be stored, printed or saved.

We now learn that all this time the TSA were in fact lying and that all XXX Full Body Imaging Scanners be able to collect, retain, store and transmit passengers images without consent.

How many of those pictures are of children? Wouldn’t photographing children nude be possession of child pornography?
