Oil slick poses political peril for Obama – Washington Times.
Joseph Curl at the Washington Times wonders if the Oil slick in Gulf could be Obama’s Katrina, due to his rather uncoordinated response.
Anyone who figures out why O-man sent the SWAT team to the oil rig, please alert the Pharmer.

Obama takes immigration reform off agenda – Yahoo! News.
It was going to be a two pronged attempt to get more voters for the Dems in November. Obama has seen that the method of supporting amnesty for illegal aliens is NOT popular with the American people. So he only has the single prong of hoping that Puerto Rico will want to be a state, and support leftists.
Without action on the part of the government, it is up to Al Sharpton, Obama’s man in the streets, to convince Hispanic voters that the Dems still “care” about their issues.
Al Sharpton will continue to paint the Arizona enforcement of existing immigration law in racial terms, though Hispanics are a multi racial polyglot, same as the population of the U.S.
Fun boycotts of Arizona are coming from the leftists. San Francisco libs are prominent in threatening to avoid trade and tourism with the desert state. The best one is coming from geographically challenged leftists who wants to boycott Arizona tea (even though the company is headquartered in Brooklyn New York.)
Pay attention to the lack of consideration our government gives to the human rights issues of Cubans, for example the most significant doctor and journalist, Guillermo Farinas. What is the big difference between Cubans, whose plight is ignored by the Dems, and other Hispanics???
CUBAN AMERICANS ARE 90 PERCENT REPUBLICAN VOTERS. That’s the difference. Your human rights issues don’t count if you’re not with the Obama regime.
Now, back to the destruction of the US economy through government regulation of energy sources. Obama has to do a quick back pedal from his statement about the safety of oil rigs after the spill from BP’s rig in the Gulf . (Check out the video from April 2 at Real Clear Politics)
A Swat team is being sent to the oil rig in the gulf………… why ???
Do you suppose there are terrorists or criminals engaging in some criminal operation on that rig?
Do you wonder if Obama can effect a government take over of BRITISH Petroleum ??? 😉
Guillermo Fariñas is a doctor of psychology who one held a government position as General Secretary of Healthcare Union Workers. In 1995, when he smelled the stench of corruption and spoke out, he was imprisoned. Now free, he is in solidarity with other political prisoners, and is hunger striking to protest Cuba’s maltreatment and torture of these people.

If you read Spanish here’s a website that keeps you up to date. Twitter is on the sidebar.
Prayers for Guillermo Fariñas, whose self sacrifice follows hunger striker, Orlando Zapata Tamayo, in shining the spotlight on abuses and corruption of the Castro regime.
Go ahead and CLICK — it’s really worth a look.

Above linked is a WaPo image showing Malcolm X’s face placed above an Obama headline. Oopsie!!
Pharmer understands that Malcolm X had been a good bit to the RIGHT of Obama politically, but apparently they both look the same to the libs at the Post.
Baby boy survives for nearly two days after abortion – Telegraph.
This case of infanticide may cause trouble for the abortionist practicing in Rossano, Italy for two reasons.
The infant survived the procedure, but was left for dead. He was discovered to be still alive 2o hours later by the hospital chaplain who had visited to pray beside the body. The chaplain noticed movement, and the baby was subsequently rushed to a neonatal unit in Consenza hospital where he died a day later.
So number one reason that the abortionists have trouble is that they abandoned a living baby to die.
Number two reason is that the estimated age of the baby at induced abortion was not correct. This kid would not have lived for a whole day unattended if he were only 22 weeks along.
So this is a much later term abortion attempt than was initially represented by the health care practitioners.
OOPS!!!!
Here’s a review of the Italian Abortion Law (194) which proscribes abortions of fetuses which could potentially survive when separated from the mother, unless her life is in danger.
Here’s hoping that the Italian health authorities are serious about their proposed investigation of this apparent late term abortion turned infanticide.
Goldman Hearing: How Many Times Did Sen. Levin Say ‘Sh**ty Deal’? – CNBC.
Ya, the Boob Tube pumps out stuff your little kids really don’t need to see during the afternoon and early evening, but CNBC is really worried about Democrat Senator Carl Levin of Michigan. See, he really pretends to think that Goldman Sachs has been dealing some serious, subprime feces, and said so repeatedly in the Senate grilling.
Eleven times, the S**t word was uttered by Sen. Levin, the suddenly fastidious NBC reporter counted….and a video is supplied by the cable network, for your primetime ‘enjoyment ‘.
The CBO can only use numbers provided by congress for scoring the economic impact of a bill. So if Congress cooks the numbers and presents to the CBO…….. well, “garbage in, garbage out”. However the Health and Human services Dept is able to use other data for evaluating the economic impact of a bill. Apparently they filed a report with Kathleen Sebelius more than a week before Congress passed Obamacare.
Sebelius kept this concealed until now. So what was obvious to anyone who has observed government control of ANYTHING, is now undeniable even by the more dense members of Congress. Obamacare will increase costs for everyone who works for a living. Taxes will increase for millions of middle class Americans. Millions more Americans will be left without insurance as the private insurers implode under the new regulations, and as employers stop providing coverage.
You will hear next to nothing about this from the mainstream media.
Out for the count: Why levels of sperm in men are falling – Science, News – The Independent.
The mainstream media exhibits the common skill of ignoring the obvious, and the above article is one example.
A decrease in sperm production and quality is noted among Western men, and it is claimed that the cause is very likely congenital, and due to environment within the mother’s womb.
Various possible toxic causes are discussed, including dioxin exposure and smoking during pregnancy.
Androgen suppressors, and estrogen mimicking chemicals are discussed, without mentioning the ever popular and ubiquitous use of the birth control pills.
Brought to you by Google translator, which butchers Okinawan sites badly….
Big rally Sunday (over Saturday night for us) in Yomitan with about 90,000 in attendance, and another 10,000 stuck in traffic jams. Okinawans are eager to get rid of that Futenma Marine base, which adds so much noise and disaster to the atmosphere of Ginowan. They don’t want it moved north to Henoko (Nago area), or even offshore of Katsuren Peninsula (near Uruma). The latter two sites are less populous, but tearing up more real estate, and environmental impact are big concerns.
Imagine one out of 14 people in any state of the U.S. attending a tea party. That’s the percent head count at this rally in Okinawa. Those people have long been ready to lose military bases, despite the negative impact that would have on their economy.
Tiny Okinawa has been hosting almost 80 percent of the U.S. military bases in Japan.
The Katsuren site had been the latest relocation possibility, even favored by some local business leaders, and made somewhat more attractive by including a relocation of Air Self Defense Forces from Naha as well as the Futenma base. It seems from the Ryukyu Shimpo article that this idea has also lost support.
No bailout for the Broadway Bank in Chicago, sunk by real estate losses. It is one of seven Illinois banks to be closed, and will reopen under new ownership.
Giannoulias to Move ‘Forward’ in Senate Race After Bank Seizure – Bloomberg.com.
The Giannoulias family stands to lose financially, and the loss is certain to cast a pall on the senate race of the owner’s son Alexi. Opponent in the political race, Mark Kirk stands to gain by alluding to the risky financial practices of the bank which led to its troubles. Additionally, loans to such Chicago ” luminaries” as Tony Rezko and Michael Giorango add to the negative publicity.
Alexi Giannoulias remains hopeful for help and support in his Senate campaign from the Obama administration.
