If Obama want fi win

[Assasin]

Him better switch him no drilling oil policy.

US people nuh want fi hear that now when the price of oil gone through the roof. While it might not move the real price of oil in the short run if America find a big oil reserve it will take out some a the speculation out of the market.

People a bleed yah now and want solutions, any solution.

[Yuttie]

why don't you just regulate the speculation market?

go a Jersey go se dat or even worse him bredgin Lidsey Graham state, SC, go se dat.

[Assasin]

regulate speculation market? they will never do that, them only a chat.

[Peter R]

Yuh don see HL put up de win farm pikcha? and Bruce posted the solar panel info?

Al Gore has challeneged the US to convert entirely to these two (as far as I know) resources for domestic energy, in ten years... we'll see, but I aint holding my breath.

NAJEE ALI: An open letter to Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sr.
> July 10, 2008
> *Rev Jackson, your vulgar tirade caught on tape by Fox News where you said you wanted to cut Barack Obama's nuts off and accusing him of talking down to Black folks by giving moral lectures at churches is the last straw for me and a growing number of African Americans who are outraged at your comments.
>
> There are many Blacks across the nation, myself included, who are appreciative for the work and contributions you have made in your civil rights career. But at this point, you're hurting Black America and Obama.
>
> In September 2007 it was clear that you were frustrated by Obama, when you stated in an interview in South Carolina that Obama needs to stop acting white, because you felt he was not engaged in the Jena 6 movement enough to your liking.
> Rev Jackson your continued verbal attacks on Obama are unwarranted it's as if you're jealous that Obama has eclipsed you and both your campaigns for the Democratic nomination by actually preparing to win it as the 2008 presumptive nominee.
>
> Jesse Jackson & Barack Obama
> For years you have been criticized as an ambulance chaser and opportunist. Many of Dr. King's insiders and aides say that King did not trust you. 40 years ago in Memphis as King lay dying from an assassin's bullet your first thought and action was to smear your shirt with Dr. King's blood.
>
> You then proceeded to appear in Chicago the next day on several news programs wearing the same shirt you deliberately smeared with his blood as if you were the heir of King's movement. Obama's recent comments about Black fathers not abandoning their children and accepting moral responsibility in our lives is a lesson you apparently needed to learn when you were younger. If you had, it may not have caused you to cheat on your wife and father a child out of wedlock with a former staffer.
>
> Maybe that's what really bothered you about Obama's message to the church that Black fathers should be responsible for their children; you certainly haven't been.
>
> Jesse Jackson and daughter Ashley
> Living in Los Angeles I have watched your ten year old daughter Ashley Laverne Jackson grow up. Over the years I have had the pleasure to spend several holidays with your daughter including Christmas, her birthday parties and other milestones in her life. I will never turn my back on Ashley her mom and their family. It's about providing friendship, support and love to them while you have been missing in action.
>
> Your daughter has never traveled or taken a trip with you, you have an annual birthday party in Beverly Hills every year where your entire family is welcome but your youngest child has only attended it once. She has had very little contact with her siblings and has never even met her big brother Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr, who apparently doesn't want anything to do with her. And allegedly (I believe it to be true ), he was the one to leak the scandal to the media concerning your affair. Now don't get me wrong, Obama is not above reproach. He is a politician and is fair game to be fairly criticized by you or anyone else. But to personally attack Obama is crossing the line. Obama is not talking down to Black people; he wants you and other dead beat dads to spend time and care for your children properly. The destruction of the Black family and absentee fathers is a major problem in our community.
>
> It's a problem that King spoke out and fought against. 40 years after King's murder I can see why King didn't trust you. If you can't and won't sincerely help Obama in this historic run then at least stop attacking him. Listen to Obama's message of being a responsible father and start taking care of your daughter Ashley.

...and what about future availability of oil and removing some of the levels of dependence on foreign oil suppliers?

Obama says hansa tuh dem dere questions a nonsense! jus fool dem a fool unnuh!

[Hortical]

If yuh start exploring today, it will take at least 7 years for that oil to be available. It's just political pandering, like McCain's fool hardy proposal to suspend the gas tax.

[Assasin]

As I say if you find oil, it take the speculators out because then America have reserves and can provide its own oil in the long run. That alone could make the price drop by 40.00.

American people don't understand alternative energy, they have never been told what it is. They have been told to buy gas guzzlers.

[Willi]

No it wont.

Speculators dont care where the oil originates from.

Oil is global and fungible. Unless a war is going on, or direct political embargo, origination is irrelevant to oil trading.

[Assasin]

But Willi it will mean there is more supply for the American people in the long run. Economic security as US is now spending 700 billion on foriegn oil. If America can supply themselves(or seen as) 50% of their own oil it will make a difference.

I am not to big on the drilling of oil but politically alternative energy don't sell in American politics. It is seen as more effective to go get more oil.

Until the day when people can see real wind farms in their back yard, solar panel working on their neigbours house etc. the democrats can talk in a crisis time like now most Americans will not even pay it attention.

You and I have seen alternative energy at work and can see that is the way to go but most Americans don't even think about it.

If you start today...and it takes 7, 10, 50...whatever years it is political pandering?

What total bull!

I suppose you shall next say of all those great adn wonderful discoveries and inventions that took decades to be where they are today to be political pandering?

That also would be not a load of...but loads of do-duh!

I can see clearly now the return to frequent oil slick on the shores of the US coasts.

Say goodbye to tourism!

Somebody in the US will still own the oil and will sell to the higher bidder anywhere. The "people" wont have any special advantage. Ah suh America work.

[Assasin]

that is true Willi but you have to understand the politics of it.

Most Americans will not think about that. Them want oil. They are spoiled and to tell them them can't get it is not what they want to hear.

Alternative energy that the democrats are pushing is only used by the rich and in some deserted areas. When last you see a solar panel on anybody's house? Most people in America don't know what windfarm is, most people in American don't know the Brazillians cars have the option to run on ethonal and other places like Britain can use natural gas. Only one state in out I understand use natural gas for cars.

These people only know oil, and then tell them it need drilling is the only way they see it.

Right now I see Borack having a hard time selling that message.
