Obama the Puppet

One thing I haven't seen discussed is the pshychology of Barack Obama. Everything about him should give Psychologists and Psychiatrists ample research. First off, it would appear that is mother was a loon. In the snippets I have read discussing her, she was little different than those around here. Secondly, his father was a radical kook who apparently went through women like most men go through socks. Then there is the differences in the religions he participated in Islam versus Christianity. Then throw in the balck versus white situation. This is a man who has no sense of identity. Psychologically, this makes him a perfect puppet. Since he is searching for an identity he will grasp at any identity that makes him appear to be liked and appreciated.

Based on Obama's own writings, his internal dilemma and personality crisis is out in the open for all to see. This is accentuated by the differences in "opinions" when reading from a script and speaking off the cuff. Often times his ad hoc responses are diametrically opposed to those he provides when giving a scripted presentation. Something is missing in this man.
 
I believe that he is being controlled by some group of democratic politicians. Whereas Bill Clinton followed polls, Mr. Obama does as he is told by his handlers. I don't know who is pulling these strings but there is somebody dictating to Mr. Obama on what to say, how to say it, and who to say it to. His inability to think on his own was put on display at the townhall with John McCain. This has to make his handlers nervous because there will be debates with Mr. McCain. If he continues to fluster his way through them his supporters will start dropping by the wayside. This would be bad for the socialist agenda.

The Bear is out of hibernation

Here is my theory on the present situation involving Russia. The present invasion of Georgia is the continuation of it's attempt to retake land and power it had given up when the Berlin Wall came down. First off, Russians are a very proud people. Proud to a fault. The end of their dominance, in their mind, didn't happen because the West was stronger but because they made mistakes internally. Whereas the West considered it a victory, the Russians considered it a setback that they would avenge.

If you have paid attention to world affairs, even in a cursory manner, you would have noticed that Russia is always on the other side of issues from the United States. Russia still deems the US as it's mortal enemy. They find it laughable that the US claims victory when the Russians have yet to cede anything. The Cold War never truly ended it just changed tactics. The conflicts with Afghanistan and Iraq were opposed by the Russians. This should have put the West, especially the US on notice. Russia has also been a hindrance with Iran, North Korea, Syria, Lebanon, and the other Middle East problems. Every time the US tries to install firm sanctions on Iran, Russia denies it and waters them down. Even an amateur policy watcher would realize that Russia has something going on behind the scenes.

As we found out with the fall of Saddam Hussein, their was financial backing and business ventures setup with Moscow. Once this was realized, our approach to Vladimir Putin should have made a drastic shift. Unfortunately President Bush thought that Mr. Putin was someone he could work with. If I remember my history, Harry Truman thought he could work with Josef Stalin while Stalin thought Truman to be a coward. The West always tries to look at people's perceived positives. When dealing with Russians, as in dealing with Middle Eastern Despots, the positives are for show only.

I would not doubt that Russia is behind all the events that has kept the West, mainly the US, occupied over the last decade. While the US is distracted, Russia can play. Mr. Putin has got to watch and analyze the west as it has bowed down to despots in the Middle East. The US has its military engaged in two country building missions and doesn't have the manpower to stop him from moving wherever he wants to. He also realizes that NATO is empty without US military might. Mr. Putin leads a nation that learned how to manipulate the United Nations a long time ago therefore the UN is even more inept than first thought.

If I worked within the braintrust of the American government I would be highly active in gathering Russian intelligence data. History has proven time and time again that the Russians do not go away. They restrategize and attack. Once again we have proof that the world we have built is not a very nice place. The Russians will fight. We have proven that the West doesn't have the stomach to fight. If the West backs down, 50 years from now it will be the Russian Union taking on the Islamic Union for domination of the planet. The West will have been nothing more than a blip in time.

An Easy Energy Plan

All the talk about energy plans being circulated my politicians, their parties, and other self proclaimed experts is somewhat of a joke. For thirty years this country has become more and more dependant on foreign sources of fuel. This is about as anti American as it gets. For some reason there have been no refineries built. No nuclear plants developed. And drilling for oil is a serious no-no. It's time for that to change.
 
Here's my plan. It would take around 25 years to preoduce the final results we are looking for. First, get to drilling as soon as humanly possible. This not only includes regular oil deposits but also oil shale that seems to be abundant in this nation. Second, get to building power plants. Nuclear preferred, but any will do. While this is happening, get our smartest people working on legitimate alternatives. Not only should this group be researching better fuel sources, they should also be responsible for the logistics of supplying this alternative to the masses. Keep the government out of it. The only thing the government should be allowed to provide is a serious reward for the final developmment and delivery.
 
25 years may seem like a long time, but had this began in 1979 when Iran created a crisis, we would already be reaping the benefits. However, president after President, and all Congresses have catered to their lobbyists and now we are paying the price. There is nothing complicated about our present situation and the answer is not complicated. the problem is politicians lack the spine to do it.
