The Saudis own us. Like the Japanese, South Koreans and Chinese they own our debt. (Bush’s worst legacy: in 7 years, never vetoing pork-laden bills, driving us into debt during a time of war, and devaluing the dollar which did not help our trade deficit but has made American land and business cheap to buy. (The Saudis own part of News Corp; i.e the Fox News Channel. The Japanese bought Rockefeller Center and the Empire State Building (later sold it back I think). Now, the Arabs are buying The Chrysler building.
The Japanese once spent 400 million dollars on our Congress. The Arabs are probably spending even more on Obama who would become our first Arab-American President. (Barack Sr. was 87.5% Arab. It said so on his birth certificate).
I reviewed my underlinings in Michael Crichton’s RISING SUN and the parallels with the Arabs are scary. From the paper edition: pages 215-216 and p. 270.
ALL Wahhabis Imams should be deported immediately as they preach treason to this country. All Islamic schools and mosques should be investigated by Christian Arabs (usually Lebanese) since Islam’s rule that it’s OK to lie in behalf of Islam makes Muslims unreliable). If their textbooks should turn out to preach treason, the schools should be closed down.
Newt Gingrich’s suggestion (on Hannity & C, Fox News last night )that we dump half the petroleum reserve onto the market would hurt speculators badly (I can’t believe how low a margin you need to pay (5% ? It should be 50%) to speculate on oil futures. If Bush announced this move, lots of pension funds would flee the oil commodities market which has been making them look good to their investors while hurting the nation. The price of oil would plummet and speculators would be hurt. They’ve earned it!!!
Sign Newt’s DRILL HERE, DRILL NOW, PAY LESS petition and call your Senators and congresswoman. Their local phone numbers are in the front of the phone book in the government pages, or call The Capitol switchboard. 202-225-3121 This morning I was outraged to hear that we are SUBSIDIZING biofuels sent to Europe, it’s an IRS loophole. Enough! We should end the soybean and corn-based ethanol subsidy immediately. It’s driving our food prices up and is causing hunger in Africa, Central America and Asia. . We should import sugar-based ethanol from Brazil AND open Anwar and drill 65 miles offshore. (None of the oil rigs in the Gulf spilled a single drop of oil during Hurricane Katrina). I’m for protecting our beaches but our energy is in the hands of WATERMELONS, a term the Russians coined for those green on the outside and red on the inside.
We need independence from OPEC oil, and after the billions we’ve spent in Iraq, we should requst “preferred customer” treatment. We should remove our soldiers from Saudi Arabia if they don’t lower the price of oil. It’s time for hardball. The Bush family is so Saudi friendly that some of this would have to await McCain’s election. But it’s time to scare the Saudis who have abused our friendship. If we don’t remove our soldiers from Saudi Arabia, they should immediately be allowed to bring Christian bibles with them.
Remember that EVERY SINGLE CONGRESSMAN and l/3 of our Senators are up for re-election in November, and 4 1/2 months before an election it doesn’t matter how much money or how many perks foreigners have given them, angry voters matter more.
