Exactly Nathan. I said that kind of toung in cheek. $5.00 per gallon gas will destroy our economy long before a single track could be laid. The thing is that it's their goal to make driving unaffordable and force everyone on trains. The same as they want petrolium to be priced higher than "green technology". If we won't let them tax it to that level they will just reguate it to that level.

Hey, can you guys believe the way even Fox News gets sucked in by Leftists. They have a guy on now named Ahmed Rehab, an American citizen who is in Egypt.
On the screen they're calling him a "DEMOCRACY ACTIVIST"!
Don't they know that ALWAYS means Communist or anti-American or pro-Jihad? So this guy is spewing his anti-Mubarak propaganda while the girl on Fox News just eats it up. Unbelievable.
You really can know whose side to be on here by watching whose side our ideological enemies are on.

Chris,
Again your point is well taken. In effect, you are saying that BHO will use the rising gas prices to plug his call for more needless spending for rail travel and make more affordable the ethanol subsidies, etc -- thus spiking food prices.
I've thought for sometime, that with more of the populous riding rail, there would be more opportunity for terrorists' suicide bombers. Could this "plan" be intended in some malevolent corner of Barack Hussein's Obama's pro loyalist Muslim brain?

You know Jonathan, I'm torn on this one. As much as I would love to see Mubarak gone and replaced by a democratic form of government with human rights and freedom I can't help but feel his removal won't accomplish that. Look at the problems there are in setting up a democracy in Iraq. And we controle the country. Muslim countries need to be ruled with an iron hand. Islam is totally incompatable with free society. As bad as Mubarak is. Better the devil you know. At least you have a chance at some reform.
January 29, 2011 12:59:13 PM EST
Jonathan -- Thanks for your onging commentary. I believe that you are correct in your assessments so far.........
January 29, 2011 1:01:25 PM EST
Never let a good crisis go to waste Nathan.
January 29, 2011 1:16:46 PM EST
Chris -- Yes. A community organizer's political dream come true.
Regarding your comment to Jonathan. I thought that, that was Jonathan's original insinuation. Better to have corrupt Mabaruk than a dictator more pro Islamist.
I still think that our State Dept. should review the former Iran crisis and the late GWBush Administration's backing of elections in Gaza. In each instance our nation's policy and actions turned out unfavorably, not only for our own national interests, but for the world's and especially, Israel.
January 29, 2011 1:20:08 PM EST
Elections are all well and good in the middle east if you realize one thing. It's against their religion to vote against Islamic law and rule, and an apostates sentence is death. Hows that for a rigged election?
January 29, 2011 1:25:38 PM EST
Chris -- Yes. A no win situation. A similar reason I always thought that it was ill-advised on GWBush's part to think that he could Westernize the Middle East with some type of American Democracy.
Look what is happening in Iraq. Christians are fleeing because of the persecution. What good was it that our country's financial resources were spent in that area of the world -- and, especially, our American blood spilled over there for this continued tyranny?
January 29, 2011 1:39:54 PM EST
They keep saying Egypt wants change, lets give it to them. We will send our "hope and change" jerkoff to them and the put someone like Col. West in charge here......problem solved.
(now ya'll know that I know it is not that simple, we just need a little levity now and again)
Jonathan you hit the nail for sure. I have been listening to FOX and have thought the same. Just because a few pointed out there are no American flags being burned in this protest suddenly those protesters are not MB members and are all about peace...........sad.
January 29, 2011 1:41:59 PM EST
It all boils down to one thing. Non-Muslim westerners don't understand how they think. The culture is foreign to even those in western dictatorships. The old saying "know your enemy"? We really haven't got a clue. Yet we still try and fix what we don't even understand.
January 29, 2011 5:40:02 PM EST
I wrote this to my Act for America group, then changed it a little bit and sent it off to a few on Fox news. This is a shame that Fox news pretends to have a clue and they are dense worrying only to kiss the behinds of the Muslim Brotherhood so they come on their show.
The Ikhwan (Muslim Brother) must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions. -Muslim Brotherhood (1991)
Muslim Brotherhood Group CAIR on FOX Pushing for Overthrow in Egypt
Why is Muslim Brotherhood CAIR on FOX news right now? The Islamic supremacist Ahmed Rehab is on FOX denouncing Mubarak, advocating for overthrow.
Rehab is in Egypt right now. How coincidental. The American Muslim Brotherhood in America is in Egypt as the Muslim Brotherhood plots to take over that secular Arab country.
Rehab: "It pains me that my own government back home supports a dictator....."
Horrible. We expect this from the leftist apologist cable networks, but FOX is dangerous because they pretend to get it.
CAIR has been sending out press releases pushing Obama to push Mubarak out (so, inevitably, ElBaradei, Iran and the Brotherhood can take over).
If anyone can get video -- please send it. FOX must stop this propagandizing for the
Brotherhood via CAIR. Or at least identify them as such. Why do they cover for them?

Why we don't want Mubarak out. Read what follows:
Some of us probably do not know what the Muslim Brotherhood is. Who makes up the Muslim Brotherhood and what are their goals. We have been hearing a lot about them on the news due to the latest violence in Egypt. But our news has been downright anemic in reporting the Muslim Brotherhood and explaining this organization to us.
Without taking hours and hours away from you there is a pretty good set of videos from CBN that try to explain the Muslim Brotherhood.

ACT for America is a good group! I just had lunch with their Director of Government Relations. Great gal!

Israel will do just fine. She is a nuclear power and if, and only if, they are backed into a corner they will do what they have to do. No nation goes down to defeat with anything left in the arsenal. Obama had best back off.
January 29, 2011 5:50:36 PM EST
Hey Sharon! glad to see you posting here! Great article.
January 29, 2011 6:04:21 PM EST
Jonathan,
Please don't be too hard on the FOX gals and them not being that Middle East discerning. You have to admit that Murdock hires some attractive blondes. But that [in itself] does not guarantee some journalistic and analytical smarts! LOL
P.S. Ladies: Please forgive my smidgen of male chauvinism! LOL I've never professed to be perfect or the perfect forum participant!

We are going to make the same mistake we did with the Shaw of Iran. This will completely surround Israel and the whole world will risk incineration. If the Muslim Brotherhood succeeds in taking over ever US friendly nation in the area we in America can rest assured that our nations supply of oil is going to dry up fast. I have since learned that there is a massive oil deposit in the center of our nation that contains more oil in every Middle East nation. This oil should allow the US to be completely free of Middle East oil for the next two hundred years. We also have some of the largest coal reserves in the nation as well but do gooders have seen to it that our own domestic energy sources are taboo. The people who run our nation now are not concerned with the People of the United States. They are only concerned with maintaining power and to allow our nation to loose its own national identity and become part of the one world order and we are going to allow them to do it. We already are letting them get away with murder. The people we elect professional politicians whose only interest is maintaining power and wealth. When a person like me steps forward and tells the People that I will restore the Constitution to its rightful place I am chastized for having the temerity for even thinking about running for the Office of the Presidency. If any of you are sick to death of voting for the same people time and time again I would like you to visit my campaign site at http://www.johndummett.us and check out my platform and how I will fix what is wrong with the Republic. If my written word does not impress you then log onto the Paul Revere Radio Network and check out an interview I gave on that show last week. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/paul_revere_radio
Here you can listen to what my plan for America is and I am sure that you will agree that I represent most of what all of you good people do. Look and listen and see if you think I understand what needs to be done. If you think I do please join in the effort to take back America the only real way we can. If we manage to take over just one branch of the Federal Government we can take our country back.
January 29, 2011 6:49:01 PM EST
Nathan, your in good company. I don't care how bad the news is it's always good getting it from Megan Kelly.
I've gotten in trouble here before commenting on how much more attractive conservative women are than the ranting libs you see. If all that makes me a chauvanist I'm guilty as charged, but come on. Look at some of the profile pics on FT. :)
John, I'll check out your site. Good luck with your aspirations.

Frequent White House Visitors and Radical Hate Sponsors Code Pink to Muslims: ‘Help Us Cleanse Our Country’
Code Pink is a regular visitor to the White House. Obama Funder ‘Jodie Evans’ In White House Visitor Log days after Code Pink Hamas Trip
When I was researching Obama's FEC documents, I discovered that Evans was a bundler. The name of Obama funder and terrorist sympathizer Jodie Evans turns up twice in recently released White House visitor logs.
These are Obama's peeps. That this filth is welcomed at the White House is breathtaking.
