Z - 'the parasailling squirrel'

I don't get it - Z.

Explain it to me as if I were a three year old.

Nailed it.

Z, I caught the DNC chair Baghdad Debbie on Fox and Friends this am. Gretchen Carlson grilled her over her past comments on Bush and gas prices. It was mostly Gretchen asking questions and Baghdad saying "yeah but", "that's not what I said" (Gretchen had actual quotes from her), "this is different", etc. It was a hoot.

$6.00 (or even $5.00) per gallon for gasoline is shameful and totally unnecessary.

If we had taken the right steps three, eight or ten years ago, we would already be the worlds largest producer and exporter of oil.

But politicians have been so frightened by radical environmentalists that they dared not to take those steps.

I believe in the preservation of nature. But I believe in the preservation of human life, too.

I invite those readical environentalists who believe the rest of nature is more important than human beings and their needs to volunteer to lead the way by making themselves extinct.

Zing! Perfect illustration.

It will only get worse. As November nears, watch Obama's praetorian guard in the press circle and protect him.

Sue, the LSM does not dare print anything that makes their messiah look bad. So they put a story of the para sailing squirrel on page one and hid the story of high gas prices on page 23 next to the story on how to cook chitterlings.
No better not put it there since that would be too close to an article his base might see.

Put it on the page on how to get a job.

Hope that clears things up for you Sue. hahahahaa.

Gasoline prices are not rising. The dollar is falling.

haha love it. And if the president were republican they would lead with an SUV driving with big Exxon/Mobil Logo on the door or Bush filling up his pool from a gas pump.
we could get creative about that.

soapster has a pretty good chunk of the facts.

elmers brother said...

Hmmm? Why is it falling? Cuz Obama made it even more worthless with the quantitative easing.

It's more complicated than a political cartoon:


"The U.S. exported more oil-based fuels than it imported in the first nine months of this year, making it likely that 2011 will be the first time since 1949 that the nation is a net exporter of such goods, primarily diesel.

That's not all. The U.S. has reversed another decades-long trend. It began producing more crude oil in 2008 than the year before and accelerated that upswing 3% in the first nine months of this year compared with the same period in 2010. That production has helped reduce U.S. imports of crude oil by about 10% since 2006.

"It's dramatic. It's transformative," Edward Morse, a former senior U.S. energy official who now directs global commodities research at Citigroup, says of the historic shifts. He says the U.S. is importing a smaller share — 49% in 2010, down from 60% in 2005 — of the oil it uses, adding: "We're moving toward energy independence."


American consumers benefit little from the U.S. oil boomlet, because their fuel prices depend heavily on a global oil market that remains tight and has probably already peaked in production, says Jeremy Rifkin, author of The Third Industrial Revolution: How Lateral Power is Transforming Energy, the Economy and the World."

Thanks Ticker.

Ticker - Can squirrels really parasail?

There is a f*t squirrel here. I saw it the other day. I never saw a f*t squirrel at the old place.

Sorry that the Messiah has made gas prices so high. I'll speak to him about it at the next juice summit (I don't drink beer) - I told him to do something about the gas prices. #@%#@^

Z said...

We're being manipulated and Obama's doing nothing about it.
Steven Chuh, Dept of Energy, even thinks that Obama wants the prices to go up so we Americans can get a clue and not be so dependent.

My GOSH...when does the bullying END??

Ticker said...

Flying squirrels give the appearance of para sailing. hahahah. Not a lot of them around anymore and I haven't seen one in ages.

You may as well give it up Sue, cause Obama ain't listening to you or anyone other than Soros, his puppetmaster.

When you hear that oil production is up from the White House Mouth Piece-Carney-the story goes as a flawed (spin) recollection of some private owners Land and State owned Land, which the Gov. can't do anything about, but use as a redirect of the topic- to stay away from the fact that the Gov. permits are down, thanks to Chuh. And, don't forget to find out about the EPA shutting down TWO Refineries on the East Coast!
And on another note; the Oil Conglomerate=OPEC, back when Kissinger made a deal with OPEC that the US Dollar would be used for trading; >backed by oil.
And to think that the al-Qaeda said that they want to bring down the USA economically....Hummmmm, if the Oil crisis we are told is by the Obama Admin-and company (dept Energy and EPA), with the lame excuse of ushering in green stuff replacement-knowing that technology isn't no where available; is led to be the evidence that the Obama and Crew is giving aid and comfort to al-Qaeda.

Sums it up nicely. Mind you since it's obama, they'll strongly consider not even reporting it.
