Beck’s Hot List for June 30th, 2009 (VIDEO)

Today’s topics include ACORN, countries rejecting the U.S. dollar, the United States “forgiving” $30M of Indonesian debt to us if they “protect their forests.” He also addresses the insane government program handing out free CFL light bulbs in New Jersey, and the Swiss’ invention of a “solar” airplane.

Folks, can we get some sanity here? There is so much that could be said on each of these subjects, but DAMN, my blood pressure medicine can’t take the strain this late at night! Somebody PLEASE call your representatives and tell them how crazy they are – and remind them that we can fire them if we want in 2010. AND SAY IT WITH SOME CONVICTION, damnit!

If we don’t speak out against this health-care bill, crap & fraud bill, the climate change act and other welfare expenditures, we will have no one else to blame but ourselves. And these programs would be like trying to squeeze toothpaste back into the tube – it won’t work.

STAY VIGILANT! DO NOT LET YOUR VOICE BE SILENCED!

P.S. How about we NOT forgive the Indonesian debt to the U.S. and use that money to pay our ARMED National Guard on the Mexican border? Sound like a bad idea to you? Not to me it doesn’t. And I KNOW I’m not alone in this.

Beck on the Suppressed EPA Report (VIDEO)

Alan Carlin, Senior Operations Research Analyst for the EPA, was on Glenn Beck’s show today to shed some light on why his contrarian report was suppressed by the administration. Check this out and see if you don’t smell a rat in the administration.

Shame, shame, shame on our climate-change czars who are going to bankrupt this country.

Glenn Beck Explains Who the “Winners” Are of this Cap & Trade (VIDEO)

Or, as I affectionately call it, “Crap & Fraud,” a.k.a. the “Waxman-Markey Bill.” This could change this nation irreparably, and not in a good way. You wanna see jobs go oversees? How about entire industries? This is INSANITY!

Guess who has investments in alternative fuel and carbon entities? You could probably guess, but just check it out anyway.

I agree with Beck, too, about the insanity of Michael Jackson overload when something so enormous like C&T is happening RIGHT NOW! If you are reading this on Friday evening at this time, please call either 202-224-3121 or 202-225-3121 and tell them VOTE NO on this sham!!!

Congress Working Overtime

Okay, I have a dumb question. Well, maybe not so dumb, but here goes anyway.

Why is Congress working overtime this weekend to pass legislation to basically bail out the two behemoth mortgage lenders, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, as well as doling out millions of dollars to help out hundred of thousands of losers who borrowed way above their means to buy homes they could not afford, yet they cannot spend one minute of time allowing an up-or-down vote on something that is affecting every American, and that’s the energy bill to allow domestic drilling?

No wonder this country’s so f***ed up! Congress has their priorities in all the wrong places. They should all be replaced, every last one of them. Do they even have any clue whatsoever as to why they now have a 9% record-low approval rating? What a bunch of dumbasses.

Pelosi “Troll At The Bridge” – IBD (VIDEO)

Man, I almost fell out of my chair laughing. On Cavuto today, Monica Showalter of Investor’s Business Daily was on to talk about an op-ed in her paper today stating that Nancy Pelosi has gone from “Feckless to Reckless” regarding her recent dumbass plan to partially drain the strategic oil reserves. IBD calls on Pelosi to resign. From the article:

Despite polls showing Americans in favor of drilling more oil from America’s huge untapped supplies, Pelosi won’t allow it. She just wants to empty our Strategic Petroleum Reserve for a short-term fix to get through Election Day.

It’s an irresponsible suggestion, signaling not only an ignorance of how the economy works but also a willingness to place the nation at risk in the case of emergency.

Last Tuesday, Pelosi sent a letter to President Bush urging him to release a “small portion” of the nation’s 706 million barrels of strategic-reserve oil to bring down prices.

Monica clearly stated her case without pause, and concisely noted “we have a troll at the bridge” who won’t let us access all of our own vast energy sources here in the United States. HAHAHA. Boy, what an image….and quite appropriate, I think.

Watch the sharp interview here.

U.S. Gas Prices Low in Comparison to European Countries

You think gas prices are high here in the U.S.? Hogwash. Yes, they are high according to what we had been paying for in the past, but it’s a real bargain when compared to what some other countries are paying. From an article in Time:

As American drivers groan over prices nearing $4 a gallon, the French are paying $8.67 for a gallon of super, compared to $7.10 in January, 2007. A gallon of diesel in French gas stations averages $8.54, up from $5.35 just a year ago. And in the U.K. diesel costs $11.50 per gallon, compared to around $3.90 in the U.S. Across the European Union, the average cost of a gallon of gas runs to about $8.70 — more than twice what Americans are shelling out to fill up.

And do you want to know what is the culprit of the higher prices in Europe?

One big reason for the difference is that European governments put a much higher tax burden on fuel than the U.S. does. State and federal taxes currently make up just 11% of the pump price in the U.S., according to the Energy Information Administration; in France and the U.K., taxes account for an average of around 70%.

You hear that folks? Higher taxes.

So tell me this; just how is it that we’re going to lower gas prices in the U.S. by buying into the Democrats’ plans of taking over the oil companies, and/or their “record profits,” and having the U.S. Government run them? The answer is we won’t be lowering gas prices if we elect a Democrat as President. Higher taxes only means a higher price for everything we buy. When will Americans wake up, get out of this “I want my mommy!” phase and realize that we have to take care of ourselves? We cannot depend on the government for everything we need; that’s up for each and every individual to achieve for themselves.

Fairtax anyone?
