Slow news day...

The Perspective: Its a slow news day so I'll just talk about a few things that seem to be bothering everyone...everywhere.

First off lets talk about this election. To my readers, the ones who live in the United States tell me have you made your decision on who your voting for?(I'd like to know e-mail me at captaincgray@yahoo.com with your answer) Or are you one of the now 9% who are still undecided?

For me, as most of you know I support McCain. But I don't go without any issues. I don't think either of the candidates deserve to be President. They both stink, it'll just be the same shit we've had for the last 8 years because of Congress.(but lets not get into that today)

We've got 12 more days of this useless shit to listen to and then its over.(I know I'm kidding myself it'll never be over) Does it matter who wins...not really. Do I care who wins? Of course I do. And its all for the right reasons.

They say this is the most important election in our generation...it isn't. Its just blown out of proportion because an African-American might win. In America, and most of the modern western world thats unheard of.

Will Obama or McCain do what they say? Maybe, but its highly unlikely. They just don't have the 'fuck government I work for the people and no one else' mentality that Reagan had that made him so fucking good.

So come the next 12 days, hunker down and just watch out for the exit polls...God knows that'll be the most dangerous thing flying around November 4th.

Second: The Economy
How many of my readers have been laid off due to this Recession were in?(There I said it happy?) What have you had to cut back on to get by? And what do you think is the right thing to do, to make this economy work?(e-mail me, I'd like to hear your thoughts on the subject.

Me? Hell. All is good here so far. Certain things in the markets are worrying me, but right I now I'm o.k.

But lets just say, this isn't the worse part of it. The worst is yet to come. But things will get better as Alan Greenspan said today. Just hang in there. America and the world will get through this.

The bailout plan, is not the answer. Use that 700 billion to create jobs. Fuck buying out banks, and companies. That is not democracy. Thats socialism. That is bordering on communism. And no one wants that now do we?

We needed to do what FDR did. Create something similar to his new deal package that allowed to government to create jobs and lower the unemployment rate. We need to extend unemployment benefits and stop taxing them. The people on unemployment need every cent that they can get.

Let the banks fail. Its their own fault. Third we need to repeal the bill Congress(pattern huh?) passed in the 70's that forced banks to give loans to 'risky people' so they could have home. This is what caused this crazy fucking mess we're in now. So what you can't own a house.

Lifes' A Bitch. Get the fuck over it...live in an apartment or townhouse. Hell buy a Condo.

And one final thing...stop living off the government. Get off your lazy asses and get job.

Small Tidbit on Israel and Russia today

From Interfax News Agency with a few parts added by me.

"Libya may agree to buy more than $2 billion worth of Russian weapons during a visit by Muammar Gaddafi to Moscow this month, Interfax news agency reported on Monday." The Israeli media immediately picked up on the reports. Given Libya's historic enmiity towards Israel, there is a very real concern that should Libya receive billions of dollars of advanced new weaponry from Moscow, those arms could eventually be turned against the Jewish State. There are also prophetic implications. The "War of Gog and Magog" described in Ezekiel 38-39 involves a military alliance between Russia, Iran, Libya and a group of other Middle Eastern countries that surround and seek to destroy Israel in "the last days" after Israel has been reborn as a country and Jews have returned en masse to the Holy Land. A development worth watching closely.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Perspective: As most of my readers know, I'm s strong supporter of Israel. I've sent care packages to Israel through the Joshua Fund and have planned to do their over this coming summer. Theses types of news reports mean a lot to me and in my opinion should be a lot to you. No matter what your religion is.

If you've read my earlier posts, you know about The "War Of Gog and Magog" and what I believe.(its under the September 21-28 archive) I recommend that you read that first before finishing reading this.

So, Russia has already allied themselves with Iran, Lebanon, Syria and Venezuela. So lets factor in Libya. Another middle eastern nation who historically has hated Israel. They have numerous times talked about attacking Israel.(no where near as threating as Iran though)

We must then factor in this possible arms deal that both Syria and Lebanon have already agreed to and accepted the firearms(mostly AK-101's but it also includes RPK's and RPG's of many types new and old) and war machines(APC's, Tanks) that Russia is offering. This would allow Russia to begin massing a large military force to use against Israel.

We can't let this happen. As a Christian and as a supporter of Israel. Being a United States Citizen, we need to make our government take action against mostly Syria, Lebanon and of course Iran. We can't let them get the nuclear weapon.

Using our own Nuclear weapons is and must stay on a worse case basis. Sadly this may be that worse case. Iran is a very dangerous nation....if they got their hands on a nuclear or chemical weapon the actions of Iran could be earth shattering.

We must protect Israel. Join the Joshua Fund today at http://www.joshuafund.net/.

Thank You.

Greedy Oil Rich Nations...

The Perspective:

If you don't know I'll tell you. OPEC met today and plans to lower the production of oil. This is so they can get their precious oil profits.

If you haven't noticed(if you haven't you've been sleeping in a cave) the price of gas has fallen greatly over the last few months and so has the price of oil. Its down from the record high of 147 to around 70 dollars a barrel.

While this is good for us, its not good for the Big Oil Companies and this is from their point of view.

Fuck their point of view. Big Oil is a serious issues.

Saudi Arabia was the not leading nation who pressed for limits on production. Guess who it was.

Russia. Figures right? Can Putin do just one thing that benefits the world and not just himself...hell no.

But where they alone...of course not. Who else was pushing for lower production. Iran and Venezuela. Seems odd that the worlds most dangerous alliance all pushed for lower production at the same time. A

And worst of all...no one else did.

So what does this mean. It means only one thing.

Russia, Iran and Venezuela all have some kind of agenda. And it won't be good for the world. They need money for this...and oil as always is good money and its makes it quick.

Just keep an eye out...as I've mentioned before. Russia, Iran and Venezuela all deserve a close look...for many years to come.

Did Family Guy Go To Far?

In the episode, two of the characters, Stewie (a talking baby) and Brian (a talking dog) are transported to Poland during the Nazi invasion of World War II. In one scene, the characters beat up and steal the uniforms of two Nazi officers. Stewie looks down at his Nazi uniform and notices a McCain/Palin campaign button attached to its lapel, remarking “Huh, that’s weird."


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Perspective: O.K. well I've posted the video so watch it before you continue reading and decide what you think. But heres my take.

No, they didn't and they never really did. The only people who think that they did are the ones who are fucking narrow minded fools who are Super McCain supporters. This type of thing is protected under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. Quit fucking complaining.

Seth MacFarlane the creator of the show is an avid supporter of Obama as is most of Hollywood so why wouldn't he express his feelings for what John McCain stands for, while still making it funny. Thats right...I a John McCain supporter thought that it was funny as hell and will watch it again and again.

Pretty good I say, and hell everybody loves a good laugh.

The Biggest Rant Yet....

O.k guys hopefully you've got some time to blow today...your going to need it. Why? Because today I've got a shitload of things to talk about and I will be going into detail with all of them. So sit back relax and enjoy.

All In The Perspective: Al Anbar Provence, home to Purple Heart Boulevard, what was the biggest strong hold for Al Qaeda and home of the biggest and bloodiest battle of the entire war. Fallujah.

But ladies and gentlemen...Al Anbar is secure and its not do to any fucking agreement(we'll talk about that later) its due to the Surge of Troops sent to Iraq that got the fucking job done. No longer must the men and women of Al Anbar Iraq live in fear of death and attacks upon their home. They live peacefully...and they are thankful.

When 'The Surge' began we sent 8,000 marines into Al Anbar and hit the enemy where it hurt, on their land. In their strongholds. In areas that they believed were safe...damn did we ever prove them wrong. Safe was the last thing that Al Anbar was.

We hit them hard, from the ground, air and sea. It was Al Anbar's own Shock and Awe. 4 years later and Marine General John Kelly says that Anbar is safe, secure and won't ever return to the way it was before. The people who live in Anbar wouldn't let it happen. Again the people...not military force. Sounds pretty good don't you think?

With the number down from 8,000 to 3,000 and all Marine forces due to be gone by November 14th...all is well. To quote the General Kelly..."We are winning this thing, we'll turn out the lights when we leave."

So folks? Who's the bad guy now? Sure as fuck not the ones who made this surge happen. Thanks David.

Remember THE SURGE WORKED!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I can see the headlines now.

All U.S. Troops Out Of Iraq: War Was A Success says 44th President of The United States
Democracy In The Middle East Achieved
Democracy In Middle East Works
Democracy In Middle East Success
U.S. Influence In Middle East Success
Iraq Oil Profits Soar: Government Thanks United States
War Is Over: Troops Leave

These are the headlines of January 1st 2012 if the agreement that Iraq and the U.S. have been working on for almost a year.

If accepted by the Iraq government all U.S. troops will begin working out of bases outside of cities in June of 2009. Up until 2011 Iraq would have limited control over the actions of U.S. forces in terms of state, and city laws. For example.

If a U.S. soldier raped a Iraqi women he would be tried in an Iraqi court not in America.

But then we've got Mr. Muqtada al-Sadr (Mew-ta-da-al-saud-r) who is completely against the agreement. He believes that the United States should leave Iraq now and believes that Iraq can take care of its self.

Well Mr. al-Sadr let me tell you something you stupid fuck. Not yet asshole they can't. While the Iraq Security Force has made huge strides they aren't quite up to the level of effectiveness that our men and women in uniform are. They still need our help.

They lead roughly 75% of all assaults in Iraq now. The other 25% still are led by the United States. Until then...we will remain. The agreement will allow us to train the final 125,000 or so troops that will be needed in the Iraqi Security Force so they can lead all the assaults.

So this guy...can just shut the fuck up and let the Iraqi government do their job and the U.S. do ours. Hell, he doesn't even live in Iraq now...hes over in Iran.(Kinda fishy to me...)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've got to touch on Afghanistan and Pakistan real quick. Today the Pakistan army killed 60 insurgents in the Northwest region of the nation.

Great job guys...keep it up otherwise we'll come in and do the job for you. And you wouldn't want that.

Joe "The Plumber"

No news today, just wanted to say a few words about my fellow Ohioan.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Perspective: So, we all watched the third and final debate right? Who do you think won? Was it Johnny McCain or Barack Obama? Neither of the politicians won the debate...it was an Ohioan.

Joe "The Plumber"

When the whole debate is about you and your name is mentioned nearly 20 times you know you hit a nerve with both the candidates. So whats his back story? Its pretty simple...

Joe is an average American who just wants to own the business he has worked 12 hours a day, 6 days and week for over 12 years. So he asked Mr. Obama...will you raising taxes on small business kill my dream of owning my business?

Mr.Obama was struck dead...flat, speechless. He finally answered the question with his "I'll give 95% of Americans a tax cut who make less than 250,000 a year." Rhetoric.

So who is is my buddy Joe voting for? He won't say but if you look at his question I'd say hes leaning toward Johnny McCain.(my opinion)

But the best thing...Joe isn't a PLUMBER!! Hes a plumber in training...haha right?

But in all seriousness Joe is an example of why its so hard to choose a person to vote for this election. If you look at records...Obama will raise taxes McCain won't. But then he says that he'll lower taxes...what is the truth. Thats all Joe wanted to know.

That what ALL of us want to know. I'm tired of the bullshit that is said on the campaign trail. We need to just sit down and tell the truth...I mean come the fuck on guys.

So what do you think about Joe "The Plumber"?

Oil Falls Below $70 A Barrel

News: From FOX Business

A broad commodities selloff hit the markets on Thursday, with oil and gold both declining notably.

Oil plummeted to a 14-month low under the $70 level on Thursday after the government reported a bigger-than-expected jump in crude inventories.

The benchmark oil contract was recently trading lower by $5.93 at $68.61 a barrel. Oil is now trading more than 50% off its midsummer high.

The Energy Information Administration said crude stocks jumped by 5.6 million barrels last week, which comes in well above the 3.1 million barrel increase analysts expected.

“The crude stock increase was a big surprise,” said Ritterbusch & Associates president Jim Ritterbusch. “It was enough to tilt the scales lower.”

Gasoline stocks also soared, rising by seven million barrels last week, more than double the increase analysts had expected.

“The increase in gasoline stocks … was an even bigger surprise,” Ritterbusch said.

Wholesale gasoline futures plummeted about 16-cents to $1.63 per gallon as a result. The rapid reduction in gasoline prices on the wholesale level are slowly chipping away at retail gasoline prices.

Regular retail gasoline hit $3.084 per gallon on average nationwide, according to the AAA's Daily Fuel Gauge Report. This is about 25% below its July 17 high of $4.11 per gallon. The $3.00 mark holds a certain level of psychological significance for drivers buying retail gas, according to analysts.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Perspective: Do you remember when all the media could talk about was oil and the price of gas? Well get ready...there going to start talking about it again.

But this time its for a good reason.

14 months ago oil was at a record high of $147 a barrel. AAA's national average for gasoline was nearly $3.50 a gallon. Everybody wanted to drill, drill, drill.

But now look. Just 14 months later oil is off 50%!! in price. The National average for gasoline si down to $3.08 a gallon. No one is really bitching about the price of gas or the price of oil.

But why in God's name did this just suddenly happen? Its pretty simple really.

The American people finally stopped being oil hungry. This nation uses nearly 22 million barrels of oil a day. And we import nearly 65% of all the oil we use. We send over $700 billion a year to countries that don't like us, and whose oil profits are supporting terrorism...just so we can drive our precious SUV's.

So what did we do? We wised the fuck up. We decided to trade in those gas guzzlers and get ourselves a compact car...or even God forbid a Hybrid!!

Fuck OPEC, fuck Saudi Arabia and King Abdullah. We'll use our own fucking oil, drive better cars. And overall stick it to your fucking ass.

Sure, a bad economy helps, but every time a new oil report comes out it says the same thing.

Supplies are up, demand is down...so the price falls. For now that is.

OPEC will be meeting next month to decide if they should lower their production and their exports to places like the United States...just so they can raise the price of oil back to that $100 mark.

This is just one reason(of many) that we need to drill offshore for.(we won't get into that argument for now.)

To me OPEC can go fuck themselves...we'll just keeping using less oil. And then lets see what they do. $1.50 for gas anyone? I'm all for it.
