Catching Up : Debates, Syria, Global Warming

      Its time to catch up with all that is going on since my last post.  First let's talk about the debates. The last Republican debate was won by the candidates with CNBC and the mainstream media as the big losers.  Thanks to Ted Cruz and to a lesser extent Chris Christy, anybody with a brain could see the huge media bias. Why those moderators were ever agreed to is another question that no one has satisfactorily answered. The stupid biased questions they asked must have in part been framed by NBC executives who are admittedly for Hilly. Little else was gained from this debate except that Cruz, Rubio, Christy, and Fiorino could speak well. It would be interesting to see the Democrat candidates try to answer questions from three conservatives who never voted in a Democrat primary.  In all the Republicans who vote in primaries were something of a looser too, as they tuned in expecting to learn about the economic policy of each of the candidates and instead got mostly the mess created by the moderators.  It would have been nice to see some difficult questions asked of Hilly and Bernie. To Hilly, about her emails and servers, about Benghazi, and her ever changes views on many other subjects. For Bernie, how he expects his plans to work when they have never really worked anywhere else. For the Republicans the outsiders, Trump and the soft-spoken but thoughtful Ben Carson continue to lead the field.
      I can't go much further without commenting of the Benghazi hearings.  Though we learned that Hilly lied time and time again, the protecting mainstream media though she did great.  I know that Muslims are thin skinned, but no one in their right mind would ever believe that four Americans were murdered and a consulate torched due to an obscure movie, yet Obama and Hilly pushed this for weeks not only to the America public, but to the families of the murder victims as well.  Shame, shame. It would have been nice to know where this rubbish originated.  Might I suggest Iranian born and shadow president Valerie Jarrett and her staff of political scoundrels.  We learned little why no aid was forthcoming though the incident took over 12 hours to run its course or why none of the requests for tightened security got any measurable response. We did learn that some how there were far fewer emails in the months leading up to the disaster.  Could they be in the 30.000 emails that Hilly deleted.  That seems like quite a lot to be dealing with Chelsea's wedding and Yoga. (if she did any yoga, it certainly doesn't show).  We also realized that Congressman Elijah Cummings is complicit in the scandal.
      As I predicted Putin has moved into Syria in a big way. With Russian planes and artillery and surrogates from Cuba and Iran to do some of the fighting, he is determined to prop of Bashir Assad for the time being, but also consolidate his bases in northwest Syria.  Obama has weakly added 50 special forces troops who may have secretly already been there and maybe stepped up the bombing of ISIS as the Russians despite what they have said are bombing the anti Assad Syrian rebels instead of ISIS.  When rebel resistance is all but eliminated, look far the Russians to start attacking ISIS. Make no mistake, the are Chechnyans who have joined ISIS and Putin does not want them returning to Russia with new terror skills and weapons.  Despite complaints from all over Europe about the Syrian refugee crisis, neither the EU, UN, or NATO really want to solve it, by getting to the root of the crisis, by getting rid of ISIS and ending the Syrian civil war.  And yes, Obama wants us to take in 200,000 unvetted refugees some of whom hate America, support Sharia, and are willing to terrorize our communities.  Only a moron or America hating president would do such a thing.
     Obama and Sanders continue to double down on global warming as our greatest threat. Just this week, NASA has said, though under extreme pressure from the regime not to do so, has said that both Arctic and Antarctic ice are increasing and that Antarctic ice is at a record level. To try to ambush the energy renaissance in my opinion is treasonous and could only come from one who is ignorant and/or an America hater. My home, Miami and Miami Beach are not going to be under water.
      In line with anti America haters, a group at the Colt-Jaguar game on Monday night unfurled a banner telling Bank of America to withdraw financing for a facility being constructed for the shipping of liquid natural gas (LNG).  LNG is one of the keys to not only reviving our economy, but also a way to put Putin in his place. We are awash in natural gas as a result of fracking.  In North Dakota it is even being burned off as there are not enough means to ship or store it.  The US has the cheapest lifting cost for natural gas by a long shot and some countries pay 3-5 times what it cost us.  In order to ship it, natural gas has to be liquified and then loaded onto specially equipped tankers.  Much of Europe depends on Russia for natural gas shipped via pipeline and is the main source of hard currency for the Russian economy.  Competition or the treat of it from America would be a serious threat to Putin as it could further damage a rather fragile Russian economy and put the fortunes of the oligarchs who support Putin at risk.  Jobs, cash, and increased government income from taxes would all benefit America as well.  It is therefore obvious that this is just another instance where the far left hates America and really doesn't want the economy to succeed even if it means more taxes dollars.
