That ain't no Sasquatch!

Man, number 38! Happy birthday buddy!

Well as the nation comes to its senses on the presidential race (the new Zogby-Reuters Poll has Mac up by 5 points, in a bad GOP year no less) I find a bit of comfort in that I'm not the only one in any given room that has noticed Obama's infanticide advocating, terror negotiating, US missile disarming, Georgian challenged, foreign fundraising, America disliking, America should be more "humble" in its foreign policy, I'm not allowed to utter his middle name, TENDENCIES.

"The PRIORITY as a nation should be energy independence... national and individual... and all means to gain that goal should be considered and discussed."

I agree Titus ... and I think the GOP has found THE issue which can communicate to the American people something we all know to be true - of the two major US political parties it is only within the GOP that serious, adult discussions on energy are taking place. They've taken to a phrase that would apply even to our Bund - "all of the above." I like it, and they need to pound that phrase, followed by legislative action, home to the American populous. And my avocation is certainly not for partisan reasons. I just would like some, if not all, of the good ideas bandied about acted upon. The oil drilling/nuclear plants/natural gas/clean coal/wind mill/solar (and in that order preferably so as to both aid and adjust our economy into a new era of energy) described to the American voter as an "all of the above" plan is a political, not to mention energy efficient, winner. And God Bless em', the House is doing its best. There's a couple dozen congressmen that are forgoing THE cherished prize on Capitol Hill - the 5 week summer break - and staying in DC demanding Pelosi hold a vote.

And Jambo, let me further concur with my brethren in Bund Titus: we will make the stout flow as fast and furious as the Mississippi, IN Mississippi, as soon as is humanly possible. Make mine a Guinness though ... Killian's is gay (no wonder certain people on this site have requested it).
