Obama’s Energy Policy
Filed under: economy, energy, Obama Economy, Our Dear Leader, Politics
Let’s review our Dear Leader’s Energy Policy.
He killed the Keystone pipeline, killing thousands of jobs and putting America’s energy supply at risk.
He had his eye on Brazilian oil, but it looks like the Communist Chinese are going to be on the fast track to get it.
Obama Forbids Uranium Mining on Federal Lands In Arizona for Next 20 Years
North Dakota Stuck Using More-Costly Railroads to Move Oil. “Right now, about 25% of North Dakota’s oil travels by rail. According to the CBS News report that ‘will increase exponentially with increased oil production and the shortage of pipelines.’”
Our Dear Leader is clearly against any proven technology and isn’t as really into alternate technology as his leftist supporters wish he was. His history with alternate technology more in line with Solyndra, which was much more of a political payoff than a good investment of taxpayer money.
Update: The Obama EPA is shutting down an oil refinery that will likely drive up gas prices in the Northeast. Higher energy prices is a goal of the Obama regime, so no one who has been paying attention should be surprised by this.
Friday B-Movie Pick: Jonah Hex
I caught most of this turkey on cable and oh, it was sooooo bad. Bad acting, bad scrip and Megan Fox. Even a dial in performance by John Malkovich (and a Malkovich dial in is still pretty good) couldn’t help this truely bad film. OK, decent special effects, but a bad film none the less.

In the fantasy world of the left, crony capitalism under the banner of a jealous Gaia = private equity firms.
Reality never really was their strong point.
Quote of the Day
Obama wasn’t experienced enough to be President. He’s in over his head.
The blue social model is killing Europe and the three states closest to bankruptcy are California, New York, and Illinois.
Anyone who would spend time rationalizing Obama’s failure is as crazy as the guy who was obsessed with Sarah Palin’s uterus.

The master of the American Western sets the bar high with this tale of Milo Talon showing what it means to ride for the brand.
Friday B-Movie Pick: Colossus – The Forbin Project
HT to my friend John for reminding me of this Cold War era classic. A 1969 spin on the classic Frankenstein story, except this time it’s with highly “intelligent” super computers running the nuclear arsenals of both the United States and the Soviet Union.

FACTCHECK: Obama Campaign Fundraising Still Sluggish
…Obama’s draw, for all his supposed $1 billion campaign, is actually less than President Bush’s in his final election. Remember, back when Bush was supposedly unpopular because of the Iraq War? In the fourth quarter of 2003 the Bush campaign raised almost $48 million. Adjusted for inflation that’s $59 million, a whopping $17 million more than Obama.
Don’t believe the lying media. Obama isn’t inevitable and he’s not a magic money machine.

Here is the executive summary. The 4th Edition rules were a bad business decision and resulted in decrease in market share.
This new edition is supposed to be a return to their “roots” in a effort to win back their core fan base.

HT to Mr. Reynolds, and oh BTW, there have been several Traveller movies. Namely Serenity and Dark Star.
Marc Miller and Loren Wiseman never made a dime off those however.
Friday B-Movie Pick: Blade
Wesley Snipes plays ‘the Day Walker’, a sorta half Vampire who can withstand daylight, and really, really hates Vampires. They killed his mother you see. Fun flick, got Kung Fu, sword fu, machine pisol fu, and for extra added bonus B-Movie credit, Traci Lords!
