Obama's birth certificate really is a fake!!!!!!!

Posted By Dave Snope

It shows 9 examples of fraud. And not photoshops, but fake SS form number, impossible date, even wrong number of digits on the DLN number? How bad is that?

I've never been a birther, but something is clearly wrong with this guy's background. I've always accepted that his mother is a citizen, therefore so is he. On the birth certificate problems, I've always thought the answer lied more in the direction of a family coverup of an illegitimate interacial birth, something not very socially acceptable in the early 1960's (unless, ahem, you move to Hawaii).

So Who Do Americans Blame

Posted By Dave Snope

Demand (Volume) is up, and Sweet Crude Open Interest is up, continuously rising from 2006 (except for a global recession dip in 2008). Those are the two key factors in the price of a barrel of oil on the world market.

Goldman Sachs recently reported that speculation accounts for a $10 premium in the price of a barrel of oi.

When the dollar is weak, like it has been, oil prices rise. Supposedly the current dollar is strengthening, and we could see a 50-cent/gallon decrease over the next few months.

The price differences between countries has more to do with currency fluctuations and duties.

Fair Value of Oil: $60.00/Exxon

Posted By Dave Snope

Yeah riiiiiight. Let him offer $60/barrel for a shipload, and if anyone takes his offer, then that is the fair value. Since no one will, he'll have to keep raising his offer until he finds what the fair value is.

Ix-nay on The Donald

I'm sure he did a comb over of the tradeoffs and decided that he'd likely get fired by the voters.

What nation has no debt?

And, finally, how does Japan, which I thought was one of the world's stronger economies, have such a stupefying debt load and survive even five minutes?

Discuss.

Dave

Japan hasn't been a strong economy for a long time. Very stagnant since the 90's. It's been on my investment no-go list for years. Longer than Europe.

Obama: Say What!?

Posted By Dave Snope

Obama just went to AIPAC and called for a "contiguous Palestinian state". With a straight face.

In other words, he's calling for Israel to be cut in two, with a Hamas-controlled terrorist state in the middle. And a Hezbollah-controlled terrorist state to the north. And after Obama called for Mubarak to step down, and a million Egyptians marching for the return of Ayatollah Khomenei, Israel could have a Muslim Brotherhood - controlled state to the south. And an Iranian-armed client state of Syria to the north east.

And Israel being attacked from all sides by American-European leftist groups and community organizers like Code Pink running stunts like "peace flotillas" and being useful idiots for the ISM to erode Israel's sovereignity. And American-European MSM continually being useful idiots for Pallywood's staged victimhood battle plays and photoshopped victimhood pictures.

And now an American president that is good pals with a former PLO leader Khalidi, anti-Israel Rev. Wright, and all the pro-Palestinian radical leftists in Chicaga that are allied to the Palestinian cause because of common goals of destablisation of the West.

Not long ago, Israel was dealing with hightened Mid East threats caused by the leftist anti-semite Jimmy Carter's catalyzing the destabilization of two of it's relatively peaceful allies in Iran and Turkey.

Now, it's Obama's turn. This is a another dark cloud on the horizon for Israel. A big one. How can even the far leftist Jews support him any more? I guess being leftist and secular trumps support for Israel.

The HORROR!!!!!

Far be it for me to call for censorship, but if there is one graphic image more horrifically disturbing than all that came before, it is Helen Thomas in a harem outfit. Please don't dooooo that to me!

Paul Revere Warned The Brits!

Posted By Dave Snope

Time to fess up, Rod. And of course all the leftist screamers who continue to climb all over Palin for every little thing she says.

Here is the original historical text written by Paul Revere (spelling in original, bold added):

I observed a Wood at a Small distance, & made for that. When I got there, out Started Six officers, on Horse back,and orderd me to dismount;-one of them, who appeared to have the command, examined me, where I came from,& what my Name Was? I told him. it was Revere, he asked if it was Paul? I told him yes He asked me if I was an express? I answered in the afirmative. He demanded what time I left Boston? I told him; and aded, that their troops had catched aground in passing the River, and that There would be five hundred Americans there in a short time, for I had alarmed the Country all the way up. He imediately rode towards those who stoppd us, when all five of them came down upon a full gallop; one of them, whom I afterwards found to be Major Mitchel, of the 5th Regiment, Clapped his pistol to my head, called me by name, & told me he was going to ask me some questions, & if I did not give him true answers, he would blow my brains out. He then asked me similar questions to those above. He then orderd me to mount my Horse, after searching me for arms.

Cats Leave Biggest Carbon Paw Print

Posted By Dave Snope

I hesitate to stray off the global warming topic with cat talk, but I think a little empathy is in order here since we know that cat people are more neurotic and disagreeable.

In a February, 2008 Gallup poll, a big (by political polling standards) difference was found in pet owner ideology. Thirty-three percent of dog owners identify as Republican, whereas only 28 percent of cat owners do.
