Obama's Keystone Pipeline Vision


I wonder if votes had anything to do with it?

It would seem that the Dems have written off  "working class" America in their bid for stealing, sorry winning, the 2012 election. At this point, the strategests are deciding who they can count, who the can count on, and who they can count out. Here is who the Democrats have decided to pander to and who they have decided to ignore:

1. If you work or are unemployed (non-union). Your vote was already anti-Obama. You now don't count, and have been placed in the adversary column. Sorry, all decisions from this point are against you.

2. If you work and are unionized. Obama is counting on you already and has some big promises coming. Don't worry about the Keystone veto costing jobs - there are better things that have been given to your union leaders to make up for that. Boeing plant closure, recess labor board appointments, etc. etc. The union bosses are taking care of their, ooops I mean your interests as we speak.

3. Bi-Coastal Elites - for you, the gravy train is coming, Obama needs not only your support, but the money and noise that a left wing media led parade would engender. Since there are so few of you, then the payoff will be outstanding. No new taxes, etc. etc. This is going to be a great year for you!

4. Greenie Weenies - You scare Obama with your Protest and Occupy pooping on police car tactics, but since the Democrats have written off the soap-using rest of working America, you folks will do well. First gift? Cancellation of the Keystone project, already proved to have zero environmental impact. Of course - sending the oil to China so they can continue to beat us in manufaturing, growth and desfense spending may have a long term effect - but hey, Bush lied, spotted owls died. Get your requests for environmentally friendly Solyndra projects lined up - because the check book is open for business - fake green business that is!

5. Democratic base (those indigent, poor and over 35) - you like the handouts and the entitlements and the freebies. I mean who wouldn't? (Other than those that have some respect for themselves!) - so good news, he ain't be changin' nothin' for you all. You are in the bag and he knows it. Nothing better, but certainly nothing worse. What they haven't told you is that given the debt situation and the likely loss of the senate, the entitlements are probably about over with. Shoulda sold that vote when you could!

6. Democratic base under 35 - Here's how this will work. Obama knows that he can't trick you hip elites into believing things have actually gotten better, so he is going to rekindle "Hope and Change Part II", and is counting on you and your friends to be swayed not by the power of his experience and output, but by the insipid media inspired cheering session that will become the 2012 campaign. Obama sings with Lady Gaga, Obama with no shirt, Michelle cares about fat kids, corporations are bad etc. etc. . This time he really needs you. So close your eyes, groove to the music and vote Obama. On the other hand, you probably don't realize how good the incentives are going to be for your votes, for it is you, along with the bi-coastal elites that are the swing votes in this election. Better get to negotiating!

7. Business - you suck. You get nothing. And don't ask.

There you have it - the 7 major spheres of influence being contested this year. Where do you fit, or more importantly, what value on the free market does your vote have?

    1. Ah yes Canada - my forsaken homeland. How long I have waited for the enbrace of windblown garbage around my ankles in Winnipeg, or the clatter of beer bottles littering the streets of Calgary. But alas, a mistress has wooed me away, offering lower tsxes, higher purchasing power and better looking cheerleaders. Soon the transformation will be complete and resistance will be futile. Ketchup Chips will one day soon - become American...
