Oil $300.00 A Barrel By Mid-2009

Posted by John Finnigan on Thursday, May 22, 2008 12:57:47 PM

When market forces play out and capitalism does what capitalism does, make money, people stretched to what they feel comfortable paying to live scream “Ouch!”

How dare those people who own the oil fields charge what the market will pay? I mean when 150 million middleclass Chinese become 300 million middleclass Chinese and want to live the middle class life, how dare they bid up the price of crude oil for their 600 million beautiful and satisfying cars and SUVs?

Buying and paying for what you want is the middle class way of life whatever your ethnicity, color, religion or nation of origin.

So, those middle class Chinese and Indians and booming capital market people want what we want. And; they can pay for it.  When you auction off resources, those who can pay the most usually get the resources.

What we’re seeing is capitalism in action. Capital is going where there is money to be made. If I want the gas, I pay the price. So does everybody. Sniveling about it helps nobody.

Calling All Suckers

Posted by John Finnigan on Thursday, May 22, 2008 9:50:08 AM

A suckers vote is where you vote for the lease evil of the candidates.

If you are one of the millions of people tired of voting for the least nauseating of political evils like:  John, Obama-Pan or Hillary-welcome to the anti sucker’s vote page. I do not recommend holding your nose and pulling the voting booth handle. To do so is to cast the suckers vote.

Maybe you can’t find a major candidate you really like. It is getting harder to do after all. Smug pundits and fat-cat big party bosses are hoping that the stench of the candidates will not stop you from voting for their nominee.

Aren’t you tired of suckers choices?

I am.

Detestable candidates to the faithful

Posted by John Finnigan on Wednesday, May 21, 2008 2:35:39 PM

It’s about some months until the Fall 2008 election. The big question is: how badly has the Republican Party crippled itself? The answer is blowing hard across the pages of history.

Remember the images from the first gulf war of endless precious oil fields ablaze and needlessly burning crude oil without generating any power useful to humanity?  When I look at the Republican party today I see needless damage, waste and outright pollution.

 Smart Democrats know that the electorate isn’t excited about the slate of Democrat candidates. They know that voters are sick of Republicans. Even James Carville admits that.

 So, while Republicans wander in the desert looking for a Moses like candidate to lead them out of exile Rudy, John, Fred and Mitt lead the primaries in practices detestable to the faithful.

 The Lord seems to be preparing a whirlwind to teach the faithful not to stray from the road of salvation, and her name is Hillary, or maybe Obama Pan. At this moment it seems that the election is Obama's to loose. The Republicans are like the prophet Elijah who ran off into the desert and prayed that God would let them die because the mean Democrats were mean.

Obama Pan verses Captian Hook

Posted by John Finnigan on Wednesday, May 21, 2008 12:53:03 PM
I expect to see Obama-Pan put on his green tights, yield his wooden sword and confront the evil Captain Ahmadinejad-Hook with a typical Panish pose.  “I am the Pan!” Obama will yell.

“ I am the 13th Imam!” Ahmadinejad-Hook will yell back, “ And here is my thermal nuclear weapon! Stick this up your infidel bum!”

As a mushroom cloud develops over Washington D.C. with the words “ Courtesy of Iran,” billowing in the clouds, the Pan can not understand what has happened. “ Perhaps fairy dust will help.” But alas, all the fairy dust is gone.
