EPA to Regulate Greenhouse Gasses…

.. which includes carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and …water vapor??

This means the EPA will be in the business of limiting… heavy breathing, sweatiness, and flatulence.

Are all of us fat, old coots in trouble!  They’ll round us up and feed us into solar-powered tree shredders, turning us either into eco-friendly compost or an all-natural flavor ingredient to the new environmentally-neutral food stuff Soylent Green.  Look for yellow tape around the local Mexican restaurants, as crews in full hazmat suits bring out the refried beans for proper disposal.

GlaxoSmithKline (which holds the key patent) becomes the fastest growing employer in the UK from the fact that American cattlemen are scurrying all over the countryside trying to dose their cattle with Beano (that is, until ‘burpless’ grass takes root; no joke.)  GlaxoSmithKline’s U.S. units donate millions to the Democrats, even though they lose some of their gain from the 25% heavy-breathing/sweatiness tax on their Cialis product.  Pzfizer losses on Viagra are more significant; that company donates millions to the GOP.

The last stage will result in trees being granted American citizenship, as eco-productive members of society; logging will be banned.  Acorn will make sure they are all registered, down to the last sapling.  Their absentee voting rate will be most impressive.

All joking aside, this action will likely result in the rapid migration of the last manufacturing businesses from the U.S.  The coal industry will be destroyed and the petroleum industry taxed even heavier.  All for the sake of a vain attempt to reduce the 3.4% of the 3.6% of ‘greenhouse gases (the CO2) we might be responsible for; the part that is biologically active and controlled by vegetation.  The EPA has declared plant food as dangerous pollutant. Wait until they try to control water vapor.

The Somalian Pirates have won… then lost

UPDATE 2: The Winner!  Life in American prison, with guaranteed food and people hired to take care of you sure beats his previous squalid life in Somalia. At least, that’s the way he’s looking at it for now And this is the image broadcast to the world and Somalia; does anyone think this will deter, and not encourage, his compatriots?

UPDATE: Three simultaneous head shots while apparently negotiating with one; the lesson in this is, don’t f*ck with Navy SEALS.  Obama approved the use of force twice (but shouldn’t have to in such a circumstance); kudos to Obama for doing so (he gets few enough from me while he bankrupts this nation).  Only if the last pirate is ever returned to Somalia will victroy ever be reclaimed by the thugs.

Those four pirates in the lifeboat won several days ago.  They won when they weren’t either dead or captured within a few short hours after the destroyer showed up.  It doesn’t matter how it all ends up now; the moment the idiots in charge (In Washington, DC, no doubt) called in an FBI negotiator, America ran up the white flag.  These four are now considered heroes by the only people they care about impressing.

AN FBI negotiator…. for Somalian pirates??  The so-called negotiations- especially early on- would have been interesting to listen in on.  These four come out a society that- to this day- watches the movie Black Hawk Down, cheering every American casualty and shrugging off the scores of dead Somalians it took to get that one.  The cultural gap is enormous (as is the endurance for deprivation- far greater than Capt. Phillip’s will likely be.)  These four have held off a U.S. Navy Destroyer for many days.  Their return/funeral/incarceration parade through the streets in Somalia will be massive.

The right thing to do has already passed; sail up close with the destroyer, have the best shot aboard put a .50 cal round through the lifeboat below the waterline and giving them the choice of drowning or surrendering arms and hostage and living.  These are pirates looking for gain, not terrorists looking to die for a cause.  But the cause of fame  (which is a wholly desirable gain) has now assured a much more dangerous situation for not only the one hostage, but all sailors in the region for years to come.

The FBI negotiator is a reflection of the Obama Administration’s desire to treat everything up to terrorism as nothing more that criminal activity by the misguided.  Disaster will result from this approach.  However, the path to disaster in this specific area was set long ago when the decision was made to accept ransoming of these ships as standard operating procedure .

But the final responsibility for what this disaster will be falls on the current administration; they got their proverbial 3am call… and essentially hung up on it.  Even the MSM is beginning to realize the impending debacle in this: suddenly, Bo the White House puppy, has become more important than Capt. Richard Phillips.  The blackout of potentially embarrassing things for Obama continues.

April 15th Tea Parties; Attend one near you.

The only way to force the MSM is break the Obama Propaganda Division role is to have such massive turnouts at things like this that they actually have to report some level of dislike for the fact the Big O and his Congressional henchmen (including a few GOP buffoons) are turning this country into a bankrupt socialistic state that will never let our children and grand-children prosper.

These things are getting huge enough that some of the Left are actually going to show up, a few with disruptive intent or to generate negaticve images.  The goal is to have a peaceful huge gathering to influence this COngress… or more likely, organize to replace the problem members from both parties.

The Piracy of Somalia

I haven’t been posting much on my home site, spending most of my time at the Political Inquirer.  However, things have gotten quiet enough over there and I am reluctent to post much nonpolitical stuff there, so back here I came.

Looks like the Somalian pirates made the mistake of taking on American merchantmen; guys who have probably seen the movie “United 93′, as well as being fed up with people looking for handouts back home as well as the open seas.  At this point, the captain is held hostage; hopefully things will end well for him and badly for the cowardly thugs.  It’s time some of these pirates have their bullet-riddled bodies sleeping with the fishes.

The only things that could be effective long-term here is:

1) The merchant ships be allowed to arm themselves: four .50 machine guns locked up in a weapons locker and mounted only after they enter international waters would do the trick.  the pirates longest range weapons don’t have a third of the range as a .50 in event moderately competent hands.

2) Blockade of any port practicing piracy.  Nothing goes in or out without being fully inspected.  Let the Somalian government (which is pretty non-existent) howl.  Ships with legitimate business will only be somewhat inconvenienced.

3) Captured pirates be jailed long-term and not in some American-standard facility; Ethiopia would probably take on the task, given their problems with the Solmalian government.
