SHAM bill -- H.R. 6899...MUST READ

"They want to pretend to be for drilling just enough to win the election but not do anything to actually produce more oil and gas." - Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich

The American people, struggling because gasoline still costs too much at the pump, asked Congress to provide real solutions. By an overwhelming majority, the American people chanted the mantra "Drill Here, Drill Now" and pleaded with Congress to lift the moratorium on domestic drilling.

But instead of heeding the call, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, just perpetrated a SHAM that may well turn out to be one of the cruelest hoaxes EVER played on the American people.

On Monday, just before 10 o'clock in the evening, Pelosi submitted a previously unseen 294-page bill to Congress and using procedural shenanigans available to the Speaker of the House, she demanded a vote take place within 24-hours. And on Tuesday evening, 15 Republicans joined 221 Democrats to actually PASS THIS FRAUD ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!

No amendments were allowed and only limited debate took place.

But wait! It gets worse.

Pelosi claims her bill was a compromise... a change of heart that ALLOWS off-shore drilling.

What Madame Pelosi didn't tell you (and what the liberal media isn't reporting) is that her SHAM bill -- H.R. 6899, the so-called "Comprehensive American Energy Security and Consumer Protection Act" -- only allows drilling in those areas where THERE IS NO OIL and effectively extends the moratorium on domestic drilling where THERE IS OIL !

What Madame Pelosi also didn't you -- other than the fact that the bill does the EXACT OPPOSITE of what she says it does and effectively CUTS-OFF domestic drilling at a time when Americans are struggling over the escalating costs of gasoline -- is that her "sham bill" also RAISES YOUR TAXES , and is LADEN WITH ENOUGH PORK TO CHOKE A GOAT!

Expect more of this Soviet-style hi-jacking of the legislative process if Barrack Hussein Obama is elected President and Nancy Pelosi is his Speaker of the House.

If You Think We're Making This Up...

...don't take our word for it:

According to House Minority Leader John Boehner Pelosi's "sham" legislation; "would permanently lock up 80 percent of our nation's offshore energy resources - holding hostage billions of barrels of American oil..."

According to Congressman Jeb Hensarling it's "a hoax bill that would permanently prevent exploration of nearly 90 percent of the Outer Continental Shelf for American energy and block energy production in arctic Alaska and the Inter-Mountain West."

House Minority Whip Roy Blunt said; "I'm offended.... And the American people should be offended that we're not doing the job for them that really matters."

Our friends at The American Conservative Union (ACU) claim that Pelosi and Democrats in Congress are playing; "'Let's Pretend' with the American people, pretending they are passing a bill to increase domestic energy production when they know it will do no such thing."

ACU further states, "The bill prohibits drilling less than 50 miles offshore when the sponsors know that, to give an example, 95% of the known reserves off the coast of California are less than 50 miles out."

And in what is probably the CRUELEST CUT OFF ALL, Pelosi's sham bill just doesn't effectively cut off domestic oil production, IT RAISES TAXES AS WELL!

Pelosi recently gushed that B. Hussein Obama was "a leader God has blessed us with."

And her legislative shenanigans prove that she'll be the willing Lieutenant of the man -- Barack Hussein Obama -- who once told us the solution to the our problems is to "inflate our tires" ... the man who told us ,"we can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times," ... the man who told us that drilling for more oil is "not real" and won't "solve our problems."

NOW is the time to take our country back...

If At First You Don't Deceive, Try, Try Again!

"They want to pretend to be for drilling just enough to win the election but not do anything to actually produce more oil and gas."

Those are the words of former-Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich in an e-mail which he sent a short time ago titled; "New Left Wing Anti-Energy Strategy: Drill Nothing, Tax Everything."

Commenting on the supposed willingness of Pelosi and Obama to allow domestic drilling, provided certain vague and unspecified conditions are met -- Gingrich also said:

The New Left Wing Anti-Energy Strategy: Deceive, Deceive, Deceive..."

"But when you read beyond the headline of Speaker Pelosi's statement and get to the details, it is clear she is trying to maneuver to block the Republicans from having a straight up or down vote on a powerful energy bill.

"Since the original anti-energy Democratic strategy of 'no, no, no' has collapsed they have moved to a new strategy of 'deceive, deceive, deceive.'


"Their goal is to sound pro-energy just long enough to avoid defeat in the November elections while making sure that any legislation is hopelessly weak..."

But you don't have to take this deception lying down. The election is less than 60 days away.

Politicians have a tendency to become accommodating when an election is just around the corner.

If you let them know -- in no uncertain terms -- that deception simply won't work, they'll do what you want... kicking and screaming all the way... but they will accommodate!


NOW is your chance to have a real effect and join other patriotic Americans to flood their offices with calls and faxes they cannot ignore!

Exposing the Real Obama Agenda! It's About The Socialism, Stupid!

When it comes to B. Hussein Obama's real agenda on energy policy, perhaps, Ann Coulter said it best years ago:

"When the free market does the exact thing liberals have been itching to do through taxation, they pretend to be appalled by high gas prices, hoping the public will forget that high gas prices are part of their agenda."

Coulter again:

"I would be more interested in what the Democrats had to say about high gas prices if these were not the same people who refused to let us drill for oil in Alaska, imposed massive restrictions on building new refineries, and who shut down the development of nuclear power in this country decades ago."

"But it's too much having to watch Democrats wail about the awful calamity to poor working families of having to pay high gas prices.

"Imposing punitive taxation on gasoline to force people to ride bicycles has been one of the left's main policy goals for years.

"For decades Democrats have been trying to raise the price of gasoline so that the working class will stop their infernal car-driving and start riding on buses where they belong, while liberals ride in Gulfstream jets."

To put it more bluntly, it is really about control. When we are helpless and depend upon them, they gain power. In most cases, liberal politicians simply encourage dependency.

But some are more radical in their methods and more sinister in their motives.In fact, some Democrats in Congress have made what they're really after abundantly clear.

Recently, Congressman Maurice Hinchey called for the "Nationalization" of Oil Refineries:


"Maybe they'd be willing to have these companies owned publicly... owned by the people of the United States."

Congresswoman Maxine Waters flubbed a statement on the floor of the House which is being played over and over again on the Internet website YouTube:

"This liberal (talking about herself) will be all about SOCIAL____ (stops and stammers) uhhhh... uhhh... will be about... (stops again) basically taking over and the government running all your companies."

She's talking about SOCIALISM! It's all about SOCIALISM!

Russia, China, Germany reject US evidence of Iran's covert nuke program

From Debka File


Russia, China and Germany refuse to countenance tougher sanctions against Iran notwithstanding the International Atomic Energy Agency’s report from Vienna that its inspections of suspect activities and covert projects were stalled by Tehran’s non-cooperation. Diplomats for the five permanent Security Council members and Germany, meeting at the State Department Friday, Sept 19, therefore failed to agree on a new round of sanctions ahead of their foreign ministers’ meeting at UN Center next week.

The meeting avoided discussing the timing and content of a fourth round of sanctions, only broadly calling on Iran - for the umpteenth time after numerous rejections - to accept the incentives on offer for halting uranium enrichment and cooperating with UN inspections.

The nuclear watchdog reported that Tehran had stalled its efforts to establish whether or not Iran was developing nuclear warheads, enriching uranium for military purposes, testing nuclear explosives or building nuclear-capable missiles.

Tuesday, Sept 16, the UN watchdog gave a closed meeting of the 35-nation board of the International Atomic Energy Agency photos and documents proving Iran had tried to refit a long-distance Shehab missile to carry a nuclear payload. The also produced calculations and diagrams from Iranian missile and nuclear experts’ computers on nuclear detonations and how to build nuclear-capable missiles.

The next day, Wednesday, CIA chief Michael Hayden disclosed that the destruction of the Syrian reactor - as a result of intelligence collaboration with a “foreign partner” who first identified the facility’s purpose - spoiled a project “that could have provided Syria with plutonium for nuclear weapons.”

He did not name the foreign partner, but the reference to Israel was obvious. He also said the reactor was similar to the North Korean model.

"We were able last year to spoil a big secret, a project that could have provided Syria with plutonium for nuclear weapons," Hayden said, adding: “When pipes for a massive cooling system were laid out to the Euphrates River in the spring of 2007, there would have been little doubt this was a nuclear reactor."

The Bush administration released all this data in order to back up the IAEA report and tell the international community that the US and Israel were furnished with more intelligence confirming Iran’s covert nuclear projects and the clandestine partnershipn between Tehran, Damascus and Pyongyang. North Korea was also made aware that Washington had not missed its preparations for re-activating its nuclear reactor.

Nuclear watchdog officials asked Tehran to explain why its experts were busy making calculations for military projects, claimed to be non-existent. No answer has been forthcoming as yet. The Iranian representative only said the materials had been forged by certain parties as a provocation.

Nonetheless, Russian, Chinese and German diplomats attending the IAEA board meeting last Tuesday insisted that the evidence they saw did not prove Iran was engaged in developing nuclear weapons.

Despite the fact that leading world powers have tied themselves in knots to avoid keeping nuclear weapons out of Iran’s hands, Israel’s prime minister Shimon Peres plans to deliver a speech at the UN General Assembly next week announcing that Israel is against resorting to military action against Iran and relies on sanctions.

DEBKAfile’s political circles stress that the Israeli government has never confirmed the position embodied in his address.

Ahead of his address to the General Assembly, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, grandstanding as always, challenged the American presidential candidates to a public debate "over global issues, in the presence of the media at the UN. He also said that while "some say the idea of Greater Israel has expired, I say the idea of lesser Israel has expired, too."

Guess again who's to blame for U.S. mortgage meltdown

Analysts point not to greed, but to social activist politics

....In a nutshell, Liebowitz contends that the federal government over the last 20 years pushed the mortgage industry so hard to get minority homeownership up, that it undermined the country's financial foundation to achieve its goal.

"In an attempt to increase homeownership, particularly by minorities and the less affluent, an attack on underwriting standards was undertaken by virtually every branch of the government since the early 1990s," Liebowitz writes. "The decline in mortgage underwriting standards was universally praised as 'innovation' in mortgage lending by regulators, academic specialists, (government-sponsored enterprises) and housing activists."

He continues, "Although a seemingly noble goal, the tool chosen to achieve this goal was one that endangered the entire mortgage enterprise."....
