Of course he did. Sen. Leah Landrum Taylor, D-Phoenix, predicted the legislation would cause chaos by spawning suspicion among neighbors, friends and relatives about who might be in the country illegally. "Our state will be going completely backward," she said. Our entire country is moving backward, honey!
Can we trade Orrin Hatch for Senator Taylor before the Republican Kool-aid crosses over into Utah? Rush Limbaugh called President Obama a racist. That's irony that would baffle O.Henry. Glenn Beck is jumping up and down, because he has an insane new chalkboard theory and no one is taking it serious. Glenn you are batsh!t crazy... The majority of your audience is people who are looking for a good laugh until The Daily Show comes on.
A little off topic here, but why do these idiots who have the Conservative masses so riled talking about what the government is taking away look so well fed? These men aren't concerned about US spreading the wealth. They've just found a way to become a well paid detriment to society with all the Cons and the fringe groups kneeling at their feet. THEY don't want to miss a meal.
This crazed law is going to create some chaos between legit Conservatives and the racists that have smacked a Tea Party label on their butts to make them relevant.
After President Obama softened on the idea of off shore drilling, a MAJOR explosion and oil spill happens in the Gulf of Mexico. I personally, hoped that he'd explore the idea of offshore drilling with extreme caution. Contrary to the "Drill baby, drill" enthusiasm of SOME people, safety measures need to be foremost in the minds of Americans along with alternate energy options. 11 workers are missing and presumed dead. Environmentally it could prove to be devastating. One wonders which would be more costly to the big oil companies* (and politicians that stroll hand in hand with them) the loss of that $600 million rig. I'm going to assume that the cost of the the men or the 4 endangered species unique to that region isn't important to them or they wouldn't have so strongly resisted new safety measures proposed to stop this kind of tragedy from occurring.
BP Exploration & Production, which owns the deep water rig that exploded last week in the Gulf of Mexico, was cited in 2007 for inadequately training employees in well control, according to the US Minerals Management Service.Source
The conditions of the training are the same as those suspected in the possible blowout aboard the TransOcean Deepwater Horizon, which left 11 workers missing and presumed dead.
Halliburton,one of the largest oil and gas service companies in the world out of Texas with ties to the Bush administration with Vice President Dick Cheney being Halliburton’s chief executive prior to taking office in 2000. It was also reported in 2004 that "The company has been the number one financial beneficiary of the invasion of Iraq, raking in some $18 billion in contracts to rebuild the country’s oil industry and service US troops."
I also read a comment today from a Tea Party activist bringing up all of the things that have reflected badly on the Republican Party (such as it is), the Bush Admin, and the misc. Conservative Loons and suggested that President Obama and the Dems are behind all of this. Now THAT is STELLAR denial! Dude, Dick Cheney can't even be human. He's so old and evil it HAS to be demonic and how long can they avoid prosecution?? Take the money of the big oil companies refusing to comply with safety laws, Cheney/Halliburton, anyone who profited off of the fall of America. I'm pretty sure the financial issues would be greatly improved.
