PLEASE READ: First - I am not just some "liberal hack" here on YouTube spewing out a party line. For instance, Obama's position on ethanol as an alternative fuel is Bad policy, (McCain flip flopped on this issue too though, supporting it leading up to the Iowa caucuses).
Also - I am not against more drilling; however, I am against McCain turning this rather serious issue into a political stunt - and confusing the average voter by preying on the ignorance of what is a rather complex issue.
Most people (even according to a Rasmussen poll just taken) think that more drilling = more oil = decrease cost and less dependency on foreign oil. Well that just isnt the case...even if John McCain and the "straight talk express" say otherwise.
Additionally - Whats interesting is Right this very second - the oil companies clammering for more land to drill on already have access to over 71 billion untapped barrels of offshore oil; and according to the US Dept of Interior and the Mineral Management Service, this amounts to 4/5ths of all the offshore oil available.
And better yet- of all of this land that is currently available to them - how much of it are the oil companies actually utilizing right now - ohhh - only around 1/4 of it!!! Yet, somehow magically if we give them more land to drill on (even though they dont have the personnel or equipment) this will suddenly and unequivocally reduce prices and dependency on foreign oil. God I love pixies!!

Lastly - you may disagree with me, and that's fine, but one thing that has seemingly been lost here on YouTube and in general for that matter - is the ability for CIVIL discourse. Fine, disagree with me, provide an alternative argument based on solid facts and reasonable inferences...let's attempt to act like adults. Take care...

This is a response video to Manny's video regarding Hillary supporters voting for McCain if she loses. (Sorry you feel that way Manny - we'll need you and other Hillary supporters this fall). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDHXcjxnW40 http://www.youtube.com/user/idiotwind75
I understand that many Hillary supporters are very heated right now and that most will eventually calm down and ultimately vote for Obama. However, I must say that continued berating on the part of some Obama supporters and pundits will only deepen this divide and maybe create a division too deep to heal. (especially for the female Hillary supporters - I very well think many of them will stay home).
Well thanx for checking out my video and feel free to comment below - I have a tendency to respond...Democrats '08!!
Cheers

PLEASE READ ME: So here is the number for Mike Norman, the owner of Mulligan's - a bar in Marietta, Georgia. He wants to sell these RACIST Obama T-shirts. I think WE should all be giving him a CALL, and make him some OFFERS!!! (no violent offers though - I do not support violence, but pitying the man...yeah thats cool!!)
The idea that he has no idea why anyone would find such a shirt offensive is well - beyond human understanding.
Also - I realize that not everyone or even a significant number of the people in West Virgina are racists, but from the exit polling data - it seems that they lead every other state in this category to date.
Also thanx to RealNews for this clip, to view it in its entirety click here and subscribe to these folks - really good media. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-q4MDQ0cDI

Lastly - give me a break with all that Obama and flag pin crap, pledge of allegiance (go check the videos of him LEADING the senate in the Pledge, whether of not he "believes" in the US, "not knowing" about him, etc... These are all nice euphemisms for racist views!! Please move past these cliches, and focus on the TRUE issues that our country faces!!
Well thanx so much for watching and please help end the hate and bigotry in this world.
OBAMA '08 (without the damn monkey)
Cheers Rich

PLEASE TRY TO PROVE ME WRONG!!! So Ron Paul Supporters have been STEALING Delegates ALL t
PLEASE TRY TO PROVE ME WRONG!!! So Ron Paul Supporters have been STEALING Delegates ALL throughout the United States!!!
Please do the research for yourself, and (like I said in the video) I dont hate Ron Paul or his supporters...
IN FACT - if you want to see a REALLY great Ron Paul Supporter...Check out my Friends channel PeteIsPissed...Absolutely Classic and even though he rips on Obama relentlessly...it is some good stuff... (hilarious and good message). http://www.youtube.com/user/PeteIsPissed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxnWi-7kV4Q (effing HILARIOUS)
Ok - so this whole thing started with FurkDaJerk when he uploaded a series of videos claiming Ron Paul had many of his delegates in NV stolen. This pissed me off considerably and I proceeded to watch this guy's video...thinking that I was going to see RP supporters disenfranchised. Well that couldnt be further from the - it was actually the RP supporters that were STEALING other peoples' votes. And well - on the basis of principle - that is SO NOT COOL!!! And well - I also cant stand hypocrites, liars, thieves, and people that resort to deceiving other people to advance an agenda...and thus - this response video was borne!!!
I hope Ron Paul continues to the Rep Convention and I hope this is only the beginning of his Revolution...as Pete (from above) might say - this revolution is only in its infancy! I agree that our govt is corrupt and I share with many RP supporters this vision of eradicating that influence!! (but I disagree with SO many more of RP's positions) Go Obama '08!!

Yes Hillary won PA...did anyone expect something different??? Well - I think everyone, including the press, needs to calm down a bit...maybe pop a couple of Xanax...and just chill.
The "tide" is not shifting...there has not been some phenomenal change, and Obama is NOT going to lose this democratic presidential nomination race. Period!!
Continue watching for more info...also there is the bet...oh yes the bet!!!
Ok - so if you watched the entirety of the video, you came across my little wager: wherein I bet a plane ticket to Washington D.C. on January 20, 2009.
Ok - so here are the basic details: the wager is for one (1) round-trip coach (but you can upgrade my ticket to 1st class if you truly desire) to Washington DC in and around the 20th of Jan, and up to the discretion of when the winning party decides to arrive and leave DC. The maximum amount of the ticket shall not exceed $300 round trip, and if such ticket does exceed this amount - then the losing party shall discount the winner by such amount. (i.e. - the loser will be out a maximum of $300 U.S.)
Additionally - I retain the right to not accept any persons offer, as I want to choose the best option if in fact more than one sucker..excuse me - I meant suitor accepts my wager...
The specifics of this wager will be worked out in email or other correspondence to an acceptable level agreed upon by both parties...
I also require - that upon acceptance of both parties - that each party individually go "on the record" by making a video and then uploading it onto youtube. Each party will also be required to provide a copy to the opposing party for posterity's sake...

PLEASE READ: We stand on the precipice of History...and we will be Heard. In the last few days, opponents of Obama have come out and said that Obama is only talk. Well, here is his True Voice: His Supporters!!!
OBAMA SUPPORTERS: PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, ETC. And anyone else feel free to comment, rate, share on FB/MySpace, favorite this vid, etc.
Texas and Ohio: Your Voice is NOW!!
I started making this video on the night of the Wisconsin/Hawaii primaries, and while I had the idea for a while, on that night - as the results came in, I simply became overwhelmed with what for me - was the Clearest image: WE were going to do this!! I started work on it immediately, and as I seemingly could not get to bed, the occasion seemed opportune...and finally after a day of editing and problem solving...A Coalition of Voices was born.
The video is a collection of pictures (approximately 700) taken throughout the primary season from Iowa up to Wisconsin and a preview of Texas and Ohio on March 4th. Each picture that is a part of a state's collection was (to the best of my knowledge) from that state.
I WANT TO CREATE A FULL RECORD OF THE ENTIRE PRIMARY SEASON UP TO THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION IN DENVER. HOPEFULLY COMPOSED OF ROUGHLY 2000 PICTURES FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. SO PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO ME OR SEND ME A MESSAGE ON HERE OR FACEBOOK, AND I WILL GIVE YOU MY EMAIL ADDRESS. I WANT TO SHOW THE WORLD THE DIVERSE COALITION OBAMA HAS BUILT, AND I WANT TO HAVE PEOPLE FROM EVERY STATE AND TERRITORY, AND EVEN FROM THE WORLD!!
Well thanx for watching and Yes We Can...

Hillary doing what she does best Pandering for votes, this time by promoting her "Gas tax
Hillary doing what she does best Pandering for votes, this time by promoting her "Gas tax holiday" scam. There isn't a single credible economist in the country that is willing to back her idea - Not one!!!
Additionally a group of economists from all different political and idealogical stripes have come together and opposed this same idea, as well as nearly every major newspaper in the country!!
Heck even her own campaign knows that this is a scam, and have admitted as much to teh Washington Post...but it is "good politics" (i.e. - Hillary can win some votes). So even though she understands the fundamental flaws of the idea and that there is ABSOLUTELY zero support in the senate, she is running a scam for votes. It's sad Hillary - really, really sad!!!
Well - if there are any HRC fans out there - enjoy defending your girl...good luck...
Cheers
(also - my apologies to Tom Friedman of the NYT's - I accidentally failed to properly attribute part of my rant to you...my bad - sorry).
