Palin Tells Truth, Big Time Lib, Lost

My Beloved Osgood Files were taken over by a Crazy Lib.

Hey folks,

Yeah I know. Just kidding. I understand that the Osgood File is on the CBS Radio Network, and I do not think Charles Osgood is what you would call a Conservative. But he is far from a Kook. He has a GREAT Voice, and a great sense of humour. Ever See "Horton Hears a Who!?" That's Charles Osgood. The Narrator.

Anyway, I tune in to my local Radio station nearly daily and they have the Osgood Files. I refereed to them once before I think. Well, the voice I heard was NOT that of Charles Osgood. No, no, no. It was Dave Ross filling in.

Now I will give him a break since I know little about him. Big time actor wannabe, Radio guy, fill in guy. Perhaps he was trying to be humorous like Charles, I don't know. But I know he showed, unless joking, that he is completely clueless.

The topic? The Left's Favorite Target since Bush left office. Well, OK. STILL second. Sarah Palin. Why? Because she told the truth, and REPEATED what I Said. It is the Envionuts to blame for this horrible accident in the Gulf. Remember we just talked about this.

So she says the same thing. Including that these new,,well, here is the Osgood File.

WHO'S THE REAL VILLAIN IN THE GULF OIL DISASTER?

The Osgood File. Sponsored by The Nook from Barnes and Noble, a better reading experience. This is Dave Ross on the CBS Radio Network.

Sarah Plain fingers the real villain in the BP oil blowout.

More after this from Charlie...

((( SPOTS )))

Here come the dead birds...

SOT - Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal
"This is not only heartbreaking but it ticks us off. You see, again, these are birds trapped in this oil. This shows you what's at risk along our coast."

Gov. Jindal and everybody else on the Gulf have become radical environmentalists, demanding that BP and the Government pay whatever it takes to save the wetlands.

SOT - Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal
"We're done talking to attorneys, we're done trying to fill out a bunch of paperwork. This is about our wetlands, this is about our way of life."

Which is why it was so interesting to read Sarah Palin's latest Facebook post --- where she argues that by slapping all sorts of extreme restrictions on drilling in Alaska, it was the environmentalists who forced the oil companies to resort to the kind of deepwater drilling that's now killing the Gulf of Mexico.

She said that her cry of "Drill, Baby Drill!" in no way referred to deepwater drilling in the Gulf --- it referred to drilling on Alaska 's North Slope.

Of course, when that was being debated, environmentalists worried about the effect on the caribou herds. But with the Gulf of Mexico dying before our eyes, the caribou don't seem like much of a rallying cry anymore.

In fact, we may be able to cut a deal here.

Sarah is from Alaska , after all --- and if she says the choice is between trashing the Gulf of Mexico , where there's a huge fishing industry and millions of tourists --- and potentially trashing the North Slope of Alaska, where nobody goes but the caribou --- I bet most Americans at this point would stick it to the caribou.

So, how about this: since even Sarah Palin now argues that deepwater drilling is a bad idea, she joins the enviros to ban deepwater drilling entirely, in exchange for the enviros agreeing to join her in unleashing BP on her home state.

I'm sure BP's learned their lesson. And if not, worse case, we have to power wash a few hundred caribou.

There are so many things wrong with this, I'm not sure where to begin.

Governor Jindal.

"Gov. Jindal and everybody else on the Gulf have become radical environmentalists," No they haven't. They have ALWAYS been concerned for the Environment. You do not have to be Radical or a kook to want to be good Stewards. "demanding that BP and the Government pay whatever it takes to save the wetlands." {Sigh} It's not about money. It is about saving the Wetlands. He would not care if it were FREE. He just wants the Government to DO something, or get the hell out of the way.

The Envionuts ARE to blame for a whole lot of things. No new Power Planets, Nuclear or otherwise. No new refineries. No new Domestic Drilling. Deep Water Drilling. They ARE to blame for this. Sarah is telling the truth. When she was talking about "Drill Baby, Drill." OF COURSE she was talking about Alaska. I and many others are STILL talking about "Drill Baby, Drill." HERE! NOW!

"Of course, when that was being debated, environmentalists worried about the effect on the caribou herds." {Laughing} "But with the Gulf of Mexico dying before our eyes, the caribou don't seem like much of a rallying cry anymore." The Caribou LOVE the Alaskan Pipeline. The Caribou numbers have multiplied GREATLY since all those "debates." Just like a few months, a year or two after this gets resolved, you most likely will not be able to tell anything happened at all. If it were not for the Evionuts continuously reminding us. Nature is not as Fragile as some who like you to believe.

It really NOT a hard concept to understand. If we were not a MILE down where no one can go, something happens, we could fix it no problem. A mile down? We can't send many things down that far without them being crushed. So? If this was in shallower waters, or even {Gasp} on land, something happens, we plug the whole. No problem.

As Dave Ross says, "Here come the dead birds..." The Envionuts will use this to attempt to BAN the already over regulated Energy Industry. So HERE comes the $5.00 plus a gallon gas.

Blame the Envionuts

You may not like this, but facts are facts.

Hey folks,

Why do we not have more Refineries? Envionuts. Why do we not have more Nuclear Facilities? Envionuts. Why do we not have more Natural Gas Facilities? Envionuts. Why do we rely mostly on foreign Governments, many of which want us gone, for our daily Energy use? Envionuts. What stops us every step of the way in achieving Energy Independence? Envionuts.

Now that the "Top Kill" method has failed in the Gulf. BP is talking about the low marine riser package, or LMRP.

The LMRP involves using ROVs to make a clean cut through the riser at the top of the blowout preventer (BOP) with a high-tech device similar to a band-saw, and then lowering a new riser fitted with a sealing grommet to the existing riser. On the surface, the Discoverer Enterprise drillship will collect the escaping oil and natural gas. Suttles told reporters yesterday that the procedure could take four days and that the equipment is on scene and is ready for deployment.

Will this work? Your guess is as good as mine.

The problem is that we are drilling over a mile below the Ocean's surface. Picture if you will if we had an accident like this in Shallower Waters. Or better yet, on LAND. A couple of boats, some trucks, maybe a helicopter or two, Hole plugged. End of story. But we are not. No. We are drilling a MILE below the surface of the Sea. So? WHY are we out there to begin with? Envionuts.

Time and time again, whenever the Envoinuts lose and sanity wins, what they tell us turns out to be false, and or, completely opposite. Remember the Caribou? The Alaskan Pipeline was suppose to wipe them out. What happened? They LOVE it. They have moved in to a closer proximity to it. They have multiplied in numbers since the Pipeline was put in. We are told we have no Oil to make a difference. What happened? What kept happening? We find more here than in the entire Middle East put together. Actually, in ONE location. Every time we are told something, like the "Nightmares" of Nuclear, we find that in REALITY, they are nothing but scare tactics. Look at the UK. Look at London. It's working. No problems.

I have said this many times before, in many difference forms. PEOPLE FIRST. Now of course I understand and agree we need to be good stewards of the only home we have, the Earth. I understand that we have limited land to use a garbage fills, and if we pollute beyond the Earth's or our, capability to recover from it, we will have many problems in the future. I'm all for looking for better ways to recycle, reuse, and, believe it or not, I'm all for the exploration of "Greener Energy." Or Energy that will be affordable to all, renewable, and easily acquired. However, as we have talk about in depth, there is NOTHING THERE. Nothing.

Wind farms and Solar Energy offer no viable solution at this time. The average wind farm only produces enough electricity to keep a small Town in lights for a few hours. That is only if the Wind blows a constant 20 to 30 miles hour. If not, some just shut down and other run on, yup, you guessed it. OIL!

Solar Power production can not be stored on a scale to make ANY difference whatsoever. Then again, it is not Sunny, everywhere, all the time. So when the Sun is not shining? How does say Seattle, get their Power?

We have heard all the insanity from the Envionuts over the years. Like the family that lived on their land for generations, go to build a new house, and are told "Nope. Sorry, we found a little field mouse on your land. No building." Or, well, what we have here. No new Energy Sources, yet, "sorry, no more Drilling." How long will we be forced to suffer fools?

Which Is More Important?

Hey folks,

Which would you see as more important? The safety of our Military, and National Security, or the possibility of a negative effect on sea life? I say POSSIBLE, because the “Experts do not even KNOW what effect it has. Sorry, I’ll go with National Security and the safety of our Military. This is what I’m talking about when I say the Environment Wackos care more about nature than they do about human beings, freedoms, or anything else. Most are also part of the Global Warming Chicken little crowd that are too ignorant to think for themselves.

According to the AP - Bush exempts Navy from environmental law

By PAULINE JELINEK, Associated Press Writer
Wed Jan 16, 3:58 PM ET

President Bush exempted the Navy from an environmental law so it can continue using sonar in its anti-submarine warfare training off the California coast, which critics say is harmful to whales and other marine mammals.

They SAY. What PROOF?

The exemption by itself won't allow the Navy to go forward with the training, but it could strengthen the military's argument in court, Navy officials said. They have asked a court to decide by Friday.

The White House announced Wednesday that Bush had signed the exemption Tuesday while traveling in the Middle East. The Navy training exercises, including the use of sonar, "are in the paramount interest of the United States" and its national security, Bush said in a memorandum.

Of course it is. But it may upset the whales, so SCREW the Military and American security.

"This exemption will enable the Navy to train effectively and to certify carrier and expeditionary strike groups for deployment in support of worldwide operational and combat activities, which are essential to national security," Bush said.

A federal judge in Los Angeles had issued a preliminary injunction earlier this month requiring the Navy to create a 12-nautical-mile, no-sonar zone along the Southern California coast and to post trained lookouts to watch for marine mammals before and during exercises.

Yea, the Judge was trying to comprimise. But you know, the enemy does not care about Whales. If we were to engage an enemy, do you REALLY think they will say to us, "Wait. We see some whales floating aroud here. Lets meet 12 miles south, so we do not upset them?" Do you REALLY believe that this would happen?

Bush has no authority to overturn a court injunction, officials said. With the exemption in hand, they are hoping a three-judge panel in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco will vacate the injunction.

The president's decision drew immediate criticism from environmentalists who had fought to stop the Navy's sonar training.

Wackos

"The president's action is an attack on the rule of law," said Joel Reynolds, director of the Marine Mammal Protection Project at the Natural Resources Defense Council. "By exempting the Navy from basic safeguards under both federal and state law, the president is flouting the will of Congress, the decision of the California Coastal Commission and a ruling by the federal court."

Because it is idiotic. Besides, there is NO law against it. A bunch of Wackos like this Idiot, do not like it, because they do not care about YOU. They do not care about American Security. For these nut jobs, Human beings are evil, and second class behind the Spotted Owl, Whales, Jimminey Cricket, or anything else. They can have their little club, but when it interfears with National Security, or MY life, welbeing, property, or money, they can go blow.

NRDC spokesman Daniel Hinerfeld said the group would be filing papers with the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals later Wednesday or Thursday to challenge the exemption.

Go for it. More waste of time and tax payers money.

A federal judge early this month found that using mid-frequency active sonar violated the Coastal Zone Management Act. It was a section of that act for which Bush issued the waiver or exemption.

Complying with the environmental law would "undermine the Navy's ability to conduct realistic training exercises that are necessary to ensure the combat effectiveness of carrier and expeditionary strike groups," Bush said.

Which is more important?

The Natural Resources Defense Council had sued to force the Navy to lessen the harm of its sonar exercises. In November, a federal appeals court said the sonar problem needed to be fixed.

What PROBLEM?

Scientists say loud sonar can damage marine mammal brains and ears. Sonar may also mask the echoes some whales and dolphins listen for when they use their own natural sonar to locate food.

Proof?

Much is still unknown about how sonar affects whales and other marine mammals. For example, the sound can hurt some species while not affecting others, and experts don't fully understand why.

Or if it ACTUALLY DOES.

In an argument that has been going on for years, the Navy has continually argued that the exercises are vital for training and that it works to minimize the risk to marine life.

A statement from the Defense Department said the exemption covers the use of mid-frequency active sonar in a series of exercises scheduled to take place off the coast of California through January 2009 and that the Navy already applies 29 measures to mitigate the effects.

Yes, but they do not care.

In a separate development, Navy Secretary Donald Winter signed a memo Tuesday agreeing to greater public participation and better reporting on the issue while officials complete an environmental impact study for Southern California.

Use of sonar "is part of critical, integrated training that must be done in the Navy's operating area off the coast of San Diego to take advantage" of features there related to water depth as well as extensive ranges, airfields and other infrastructure needed for training, a Pentagon statement said.

About half the Navy's fleet will receive "its most critical, graduate level training" there before it deploys its forces around the world, it said.

Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Gary Roughead said that exercises with sonar train sailors to detect quiet submarines that might threaten its ships.

"We cannot in good conscience send American men and women into potential trouble spots without adequate training to defend themselves," said Roughead.

"The Southern California operating area provides unique training opportunities that are vital to preparing our forces, and the planned exercises cannot be postponed without impacting national security," he said in the Pentagon statement.

Folks, I'm sorry, but I couldn't care less about these Idiots. I DO care about America, PEOPLE, and our freedoms. I do NOT care if some of the things we need to do, MAY, and we do not know how much or to what effect, it effects some sea life. I do not care if some are "uncomfoitable" with the way MANKIND has to do some things to protect ITSELF and, well, actually live. People come first in my book. They can believe whatever they want. But THEY have loss ALL cedibility with me a long time ago. THIS is a perfect example why.
