Pelosi Vs. Obama – Oil Slickers – Like A Rolling Stone
Nancy Pelosi is 1. Out to hurt the Democratic Party. 2. Wants to damage national security. 3. Seeks more power. 4. All of the above.
The Speaker of the House is playing what could be a devastating and potentially dangerous political game. In an age of terror, the Speaker is going head-to-head with the Commander in Chief.
What’s the big fuss? Pelosi is pushing legislation that would require the CIA to give EVERY member of the House and Senate intelligence committees advance knowledge of covert activities. She also wants the power to audit these activities. Only committee chairmen currently get the top-secret briefings.The President threatens to veto the Pelosi power grab. The showdown is coming up soon.
Talk about political selfishness? Why damage your own party in an election year?
Both key Republicans and Democrats oppose the Pelosi move. One thing is certain –Washington is a city of leakers. That kind of sensitive information in the wrong hands could be dangerous to the nation’s well being.
Pelosi Vs. Obama. Watch this one.
SLICK OILERS-
The national oil lobby is filling the airwaves with messages about the safety of oil drilling.
Save your money you big-pocketed gusher-kings. We need oil, but we also need common sense in the aftermath of the mess in the Gulf. You can’t fool all of the people all of the time!
SEPTA AT THE BALL PARKS
So one of the mobile phone companies is buying the name to the Septa subway stop at the Sports Complex. Pretty cool? Not so fast. It’s good for Septa to get the bucks, but will the phone company guarantee that our cell phones will work in the stadium areas?
LIKE A ROLLING STONE
The McChrystal public relations disaster may turn out to become an investigative study by some major journalism schools. It is hard for most journalists to comprehend that any official of his rank would make the comments he made, anthat his top aides would mouth—off like that. Rolling Stone denies that any rules of engagement were violated. It would be interesting to discover what the rules were for any off-the-record remarks. The entire affair reminds me of rule one for people in power: if you want to protect your backside, always think there’s an open microphone in the room, even if there isn’t.

Larry, you are a complete idiot. Of course Nancy Pelosi is the most divisive, glory seeking, power hungry, SOH in American history. She has her own agenda and plans to carry it out like Barry. Why have we elected so many in Washington with their own political agendas that are so far different than what the American people actually want? Why are they all Democrats? We’ll start the process of flushing these phonies and traitors in November. The job will be done by January 2013. Let’s take America back from the extremist and socialists.
Larry, how do you expect to buy gasoline for your car or oil for your house? Shopping at WalMart for gas is still buying gas from big oil companies. We’re better off pumping oil in the US having an oil mishap disater every 20 years than relying on the military to keep our oil pipeline from the Middle East. Even if you really rode SEPTA (and we know you don’t) public transportation requires energy to run. Idiot!
Stanley McChrystal was like William Holden in the movie Network. Mad as hell and could not take it any more. I know it’s difficult for Uber Liberals like you and Barry to understand. You are the ultra PC crowd. More concerned about flack or feedback or public opinion than about doing or saying the right thing. McChrystal asked for 50K more troops in December. It took Barry 6 weeks to finally be shamed into granting the General’s request. Then he made the announcement at West Point expecting a big cheer. What a fraud. Barry does not represent one of the values of that great institution: Duty, Honor, Country. It is a disgrace for him to darken the academy’s hallowed halls. The one most likely to divide and ruin America with socialism speaking at West Point. Gag me with a spoon. Go speak to your phony breathren at Harvard. Go speak to your machine faithful in Chicago. Go into the intercities where the African American people still believe your bull shit. Go back to wherever you came from. I tip my cap to Stanley McChrystal. A brave warrior willing to take on an incompetent President. Not PC or a prudent move to be sure but a very bold and American stand. We love you Stanley and everything you represent. Just the way we hate Pelosi and Barry and everything they represent. Larry, you are on the wrong end of this as usual. At least you are consistent.
Hi LK :)
You are on target once again. I love how you weave so many different yet enlightening topics into one blog post !
Loved the little comment about the cell phones. Its this type of big business which bullies the locals, that really grinds my gear. Thanks for calling light to this!
You are a shining star and a great inspiration.
Another supreme posting :)
So proud to be your friend!

Re: Pelosi Vs. Obama – I think Larry is right about this one. There is no chance that Pelosi can become President – so, she’s concluded that she may as well make the office of the Speaker of the House the most important office in the land, and the presidency secondary. Obama is helping her by rapidly making himself irrelevant.
Re: Slick Oilers – if Larry is referring to the commercials on KYW1060 from the Petroleum Institute, then he hasn’t really listened to the message, which is that (1) there has been nothing like the Deepwater Horizon incident in the past – basically true, the Exxon Valdez is now a distant second place and (2) the Institute pledges to figure out went wrong. The bottom line is that America runs on oil, and we have to continue drilling for it.
Re: McChrystal – right, he and his aids shouldn’t have shot off to the press. But the Inquier’s best columnist, Trudy Rubin, cogently pointed out the underlying problem is the poor relationship between the civil authories, such as Richard Holbrooke, and the military staff, over virtually everything important to the war effort. Although it would be a tragedy for the people of Afghanistan, I agree with George Will that we should get out if we’re not going to fight to win.

I want my cell phone to work in the subway. I need to call people and let them know that I’m going to a sporting event. I need to let them know I spent $5 on a hot dog at the game. I need to chat chat chat chat chat chat chat about my meaningless life. And I want to do it in a freshly painted SEPTA station without no chicken bones, rats, or smelly people in it.
I HEART YOU LK :)

Has anyone questioned why McCrystal and his crew were so disrepectful and insubordinate? No, because its racial, and they used Biden at Bite-me as an insert for the N-word. Nobadys talking like that, but the reality is proud white men like McCrysytal have a problem executing a war for a dissconnected black liberal who spent his life around people who actually loathe the U.S Military.
Obama did the right thing to fire him for the sake of the Republic, but we also can fire Obama for the sake of the Republic.
Barry is a complete lightweight incapable of being a condo super. He is buried by the likes of McChrystal and Petraus. Intellectually he may be there equal but this fraud has never accomplished anything except getting elected.
LK:
I heard your report on my drive to work today on KYW-AM-1060.
Your voice sounded full of confidence, and the way you delivered your message — WOW.
I kinda got tingly in the car, truth be told
What a great way to start my day!

Larry you’re all talk and no action……
Even when you were on “Action” News you were still all talk. Admiral Sestak told me so.
Larry, speaking of microphones they should tie one of those gigantic 1940′s type of microphones around Biteme’s neck.
Did you see Bristol Palin on that teenager show? Her acting is almost as good as Tori Spelling’s acting.
Palin is a dirty word in the Bunch household. Not my cup of tea.
They say a Byrd in the Senate is worth two in the grave to West Virginians. I was a political survivor. Not bad for a kid whose mom died when he was one and who was raised in impoverished coal country during the Great Depression.
Bristol Palin is a teenager thrust into the national spotlight ny her mother; Tory Spelling is alledgedly an actress. Not sure why you’d expect her to be an actress. Kind of like the Osborne kids.
Robert Byrd is a Democratic prop wheelchaired around to keep his precious vote in the Senate. He’s like a 2 dimensional cardboard figure with frayed edges or an inflatable doll put in cars to drive the HOV lane.
Larry, your site may be officially dead or is it just a summer lull?
Weendend at Bobby’s (Byrd). Pelosi and Reid can move him around the beach house and prop him up in chairs.
Sarah Palin is so dumb that she recently claimed that Ronald Reagan went to college in California. He went to Eureka College in Illinois. Derp, baby, derp!
Sarah Palin is an American hero! She is proof of the meritocracy.

Suck my big black pride you milk toast honkey mother fuckers. Larry Kane steps and fetches like a moxie from the catskills, and you all dick heads debate what he says. This sight is about money for Larry Kane, the goyum and the gentiles finance it as his sponsors, but the joke is on them. He has contept for those who disagree with his modified secular Jewish views.
