Goo Goo Gaa Gaa O-Baa-Maa

The crib babies who blindly support the likes of nanny-statist Barack Obama do not realize they are being duped by one of the biggest charlatans in the world of politics.

In spite of his claim following the U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down the D.C. gun ban that he 'has always supported the Second Amendment,' Obama has always done the exact opposite, calling for the outright ban of all handguns in the state of Illinois, for example.

Early in this year's Presidential campaign the candidate stated that the D.C. gun ban was appropriate and passed the Constitutional test.

He was wrong, according to the Court.

But he hopes his supporters have forgotten that. Most of them have, or least they are engaging in denial in the midst of their starry-eyed gaze into the face of their beloved Obamessiah.

In like manner, Obama supporters are oblivious to the fact that their candidate supports measures that will hurt them even more in the pocket book than they are hurting now.

Nothing is going to bring down the costs of gasoline at the pump other than an increase in supply as the demand for oil in developing countries skyrockets. Demand is up but supply is barely keeping pace, and if demand continues to increase as it surely will in places such as China and India, then supply will fall behind.

This does nothing but drive up the price of gasoline even further.

Raising gasoline taxes, which Obama has proposed, will do nothing to give consumers any relief but will increase their burden even more. Americans are already paying anywhere from 40-75 cents per gallon in taxes.

Government, in fact, has made windfall profits from the supposed 'obscene' profits of the oil companies. While demagogues such as Obama and his minions of the Democratic Party decry oil company profits, government has been making out like bandits from the skyrocketing prices at the pump.

Nobody wants to talk about that, though.

With foreign oil rising to record prices on the open market, the only thing that will help bring down the price of gasoline is for Americans to develop and use our own resources here at home.

Sure, new technologies that utilize solar, wind, hydrogen fuel cell, bio-diesel, and electric energy are important. But none of these will be ready to sustain the nation's energy needs for another 10 years at least.

The cold, hard fact is that we need the oil. And we have it.

But Barack opposes drilling for it. He opposes building new refineries. He opposes nuclear power, which is one of the cleanest sources of energy we have.

John McCain has admittedly proposed the most sensible energy program that I have seen. The program supports developing the new technologies that utilize solar, wind, hydrogen fuel cell, bio-diesel, electric, and nuclear power. But McCain is also realistic enough to know this is not enough.

McCain knows that in order to address America's short-term energy needs, we have to drill here and drill now.

This is the only way to give consumers relief at the pump. When we are not being held hostage by foreign sources of oil, we as Americans can determine our own prices through OUR markets.

Thus, while the zombie-like supporters of Barack Obama are falling down in worship at the feet of their Messiah, chanting, 'Goo goo gaa gaa O-baa-maa,' it turns out their emperor has no clothes. He is getting ready, if elected, to increase rather than relieve their pain.
