Be very careful - warnings - the Current GOP Culture War is a total smokescreen. These issues they are advancing - Anti-Abortion, Birth Control, Prayer in Schools, etc. - these are loser issues for the GOP - we know it and they know it. They are launching this cultural war all over to decoy their real tactics.
They econcomy is improving - we know it and they know it. An improved economy makes Obama a winner. Everybody knows that as well. They must win in November of face total banishment and this will cost the Rich trillions in Bush Tax Cuts.
Meanwhile as we all fight their cultural war they are prepping a nuclear bomb to drop on the economy that will put the economy back into the tank to get Romney elected.
See - Cheney still is lurking in the background and has even somewhat smokescreened himself by emersing himself into the gay marriage in Maryland. Don't be fooled - Cheney is no more for gay marriage then he is for cleaning up the environment. In about 2-3 months he is going to drop the nuclear bomb he is prepping on the ecoonomy. He is going to raise gas prices from anywhere from $5.00 to $7.50 - whatever he needs to do to shock the economy into an imediate recession.
They are taking measures to do this. They are closing 3 refineries in the Philadelphia Area - refineries that has no known reason to be closed other than contricting the supply of gasoline. Cheney yelled for years about not being able to build refineries in the US and now they are closing ones they already have. Makes no sense.
As good as the cultural war is going - keep an eye out and be prepared. Democrats had better be ready to put the blame on these upcoming rising gas prices right where they belong - on Cheney and the GOP.
And Karl Rove is on Fox right now saying gas prices are $3.50 going on $4.00. He would not be saying this unless he really knew something.
Tue Mar 13, 2012 at 7:07 AM PT: As I was warning - the War on Women we are winning along with all the other cultural stuff. However this is only one small battle in this total war - right now we are losing because of the gas prices that Cheney, the Koch Bros, and Oil CEO's are wratcheting up at alarming rates.
This Administration if it is to survive MUST open the Strategic Petroleum Reserve NOW and also take over the refineries the oil companies want to close to refine this oil - then sell it cheap to gas stations to bust up the high prices and destroy the speculators. Failure to do this will result in President Romney and you can kiss your retirement and health care goodbye forever.
