Obama’s Energy Ideas: Running on Empty

Red State

In his Wednesday address at Georgetown University, President Obama took another stab at elucidating his muddled energy policy:

It was just three years ago that gas prices topped $4 a gallon. I remember because I was in the middle of a presidential campaign. Working folks certainly remember because it hit a lot of people pretty hard. And because we were at the height of political season, you had all kinds of slogans and gimmicks and outraged politicians — they were waving their three-point plans for $2 a gallon gas. You remember that — “drill, baby, drill” — and we were going through all that. And none of it was really going to do anything to solve the problem.

The President has a keen eye for a gimmicky slogan. Remember “Hope and Change”? Or “Yes, We Can?” Or the latest monument to vapidity, “Winning the Future”? If there were a Hall of Fame for Substance-Free Slogans, Barack Obama would be its Babe Ruth. If there were an Empty Rhetoric Olympics, Obama would take the gold medal. If there were a Nobel Prize for … oh, wait, he already won that one.

Improper search and seizure…..

A number of court cases have been thrown out because of these few words but apparently Congress, TSA, judges across the country, Barry O and even some in talk radio (hosts)have no clue to its meaning. However, ask any inmate that is currently in custody at your local jail, they can tell you all about it.

So let me help, the TSA searches in airports  are unconstitutional. Go ahead, read it, tell me I’m wrong………. and please don’t use the old lines that what they do is for our own protection.

Amendment 4 – Search and Seizure. Ratified 12/15/1791.

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.  (S0urce)

How about this one……….

Article II

Section 4

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.  (Source)

Treason, Bribery, high crimes and misdemeanors………… this happens daily in Washington. Come on……… look at what has happened just in the last couple of years alone.  Despite a public outcry, not one member of Congress said one word against Obama being sworn into Office. To this day Obama has yet to prove who he says he is. The man no one remembers from college, grade school or where ever. The only ones that do remember him are people he use to smoke pot with. Now that’s reassuring.

Was this treason? Well, unlike Obama, I’ll be honest, I’m not a lawyer and I don’t play one on TV but for Congress to allow an unconstitutional man to hold the highest office and allow him to spend billions, to take over two of the largest auto makers, to bail out his union buddies, a Usurper in Chief. If it wasn’t, it comes pretty damn close, and just because the people elected Obama doesn’t make it right. Also, how many bribes have been made by the current administration in order to get Bills passed?

So, what’s Obama trying to hide? At this point in time you can make up your own story about that because the Ex Order he signed is still sealed. For all we know, Obama is a member of al Qaeda. Don’t laugh, didn’t he visit Pakistan in 1981 using whatever passport he had and upon return he started using the name Barack. Prior to that he went by Barry. Hey, he could have gotten in touch with his Muslim roots and been recruited.  Like I said, no one knows.

So can Congress use the excuse that they just didn’t know? Congress makes laws, although they may not read them and they may not understand what is in them but they still make laws and especially when it comes to Congress………Ignorance of the Law is no excuse.
