Gas and Oil runs our Economy! This is FACT, every single time gas goes up, GOODS go up, meaning we pay more for what we need or want because it COSTS more to receive it! Now Tax specifically on Gas and Oil, is high and seems to remain the same over years as far as Excise Tax go, but the underlining of it all, means we continually pay more Tax because of it, in higher COSTS. Let alone, the fact, that we are ALSO TAXED, for the subsidies given the Gas and Oil Industry, supposedly to provide jobs! Now we had an opportunity, not that long ago for more jobs, with the pipeline, but Obama nix that one! Before that, jobs started up on anticipation of the new pipeline and gas prices went down for competition, yet it all was squashed by Obama's pen! Raiser of Taxes, oh hell yes, and if there is another, worst than him, we are just at the mercy of God; which is the situation anyways! In Christ, Nancy |

Boo-hoo-hoo. Just pay your damned taxes, Nancy, and stop bitching. If you didn't pay taxes, you'd just waste the extra money on crap. You might even give some to Arnold Murray. |

18.4¢-per-gallon is not excessive. Only one state, Alaska, has lower state taxes. Costs are not taxes. The price of gas is not set by the government. It is based on the world market, refinery capacity, and speculation on the commodities market.
Obama has tried to end the subsidies but Republicons will not allow it to pass Congress. The oil companies put that money into their executive's pockets, not jobs.
At the maximum the Keystone XL Pipeline would create about 5,000 temporary jobs that would be gone when the pipeline was finished. None of the oil would go to the United States. It would all be put on the world market and most would go to China. What oil the U.S. would get would be from the leaks and given the pipeline's record and the cheap Chinese steel they're using, there will be plenty of those.
There was one far worse than him who was in office just before him. It was George W. Bush who was responsible for tanking the economy. Remember, the recession started in 2007 more than a year before Obama took office.
"When it shall be said in any country in the world, my poor are happy; neither ignorance nor distress is to be found among them; my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars; the aged are not in want, the taxes are not oppressive; the rational world is my friend, because I am a friend of its happiness: When these things can be said, then may the country boast its constitution and its government." -- Thomas Paine: The Rights Of Man (1791)

Our "Raiser of Taxes" is quite a guy, and how generous he is with our Tax Dollars. Let's see Lockheed Martin is laying off 123,000 Defense Workers, BECAUSE of Obama's cuts to our Defense; and since there is a law that states Lockheed Martin is required to give 60 days notice to firing an employee, that would make November 1st, 2012 the latest to give out notice......so because the election is on November 6th, Obama requests Lockheed Martin not to give notice UNTIL the election is over; and that the Government will back severance pay to the employees for the delay in notice. See how this regime works! Always CHANGING things to their benefit; not for We the People, but for their AGENDA! We need JOBS, we need Energy at reasonable cost, we need a REAL Commander and Chief, who puts the love of God and Country FIRST! A good change comes by the VOTE! In Christ, Nancy

It's true. And Nancy has nothing but hot air to back up her lies. TPaine on the other hand posts the links to back up what he says. Which one are you going to believe?
Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones. Marcus Aurelius

What kind of person says this crap and gets corrected, complete with links to back it up, and yet goes right on believing and spreading lies?

Absolute TRUTH! But the Obamacrats can't take it! While on his 2008 campaign, Obama also stated:"If within my first term if I can't bring unemployment down to 5%, then I'll resign!" Not only was he supposed to bring down unemployment, he was also supposed to rebuild infrastructure, our roads, bridges, highways were to be what he said "Shovel ready, jobs!" Didn't see hide nor hair of that one either! How about a real immigration reform? Nada! As far as Homeland Safety, well behind the scenes unannounced Osama Bin Laden was killed in 2002.....but say perhaps he was killed this time during this Administration, as Obama cuddled off in the corner, while Hillary sat right at the screen, when this operation took place, so what! Has it stopped Al Quieda? No way in hell! 9/11/2012 , one Ambassador and three Americans were murdered....two were Seals going in to help the Ambassador and the other American, in Benghazi, Lybia. Those two Seals went against orders, to try and save the lives of the Ambassador plus one, and it was watched in the Situation Room of the White House, and orders came down from high places to stand down for any military back up that was only an hour away! This battle lasted 7 hours! Now how can a President who is supposed to be "Commander and Chief" stand down help of Americans in deep trouble being murdered before their very eyes? Another question: How can a President next day, and weeks after put blame on a film,(not even known of, until this incident posted in June) and then apologizing for offending the Muslim religion, that we must be tolerant, because this stirred up a protest, that caused this tragedy. Absolute lies, and deception of the lowest form! This is FACT! And Hillary throws herself under the bus for her boss, and the world knows it. We are disgraced by the actions of this so-called President! And our enemies are emboldened! Germany held a parade, with effigies of Barack in bed with China, and Barack biting the hind end of Hillary, etc. etc. look it up on the net! How funny, and yet how sad this state of affairs has become! But to each his or her own, go ahead and follow your pied piper! In Christ, Nancy |

We no longer wish to read Nancy's political views. They are off-topic.

Hi, all, This thread is now closed. It's long since veered away from any connection with eschatology and many members have expressed displeasure with the purely political nature of the thread. It's always OK on this forum to post about political and other world events as long as such posts and threads are connected to discussion of eschatology.
