RSSUS Gas Price Marks Biggest Drop Ever … However, Still Not Low Enough
With fears of a global recession and a declining demand, the price of crude oil was down to $77.70 a barrel on Friday. US travelers have also been conserving, car pooling and traveling less since gas priced previously sky-rocketed to over $4.10 a gallon. Even though gas prices have come down, with prices at $78 a barrel … the cost at the pump should be under $3.00 a gallon. Oil companies still have a ways to go with the price so not to gouge “We the People”.
(Reuters) - The average price of a gallon of gasoline in the United States recorded its largest drop ever as consumer demand continued to wane and oil prices slid, a prominent industry analyst said on Sunday.
Sarah Palin Knows How to deal with Moonbat Heckler … Bless Your Heart … “My Son is Fighting for Your Rights”
Sarah Palin handles a heckler with all the grace of a pit bull wearing lipstick. Check mate moonbat.
Think Sarah Palin cannot handle herself on the campaign trail? Think again as she puts a protesting heckler in his place. For those who wish to express their freedom of speech rights, Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin reminds all who exactly should be thanked for our unalienable rights. Americans best never forget who it is who makes America free as … Freedom is never Free.
Funny, the national MSM did not seem to want to cover Sarah Palin skillfully handling a heckler with grace. I wonder why?
Mr Obama has said that US troops in Afghanistan are “just air-raiding villages and killing civilians”.

British Teachers’ Union Representative Chris Keates Says “Teachers Who Engage in Consensual Sex With Teen Pupils Shouldn’t Face Prosecution”
WTF!!! According to Chris Keates teaching is about reading writing and bedding your pupils. This is just what parents are looking for when they send their children off to school … predator teachers with no accountability for their actions. British Education Rep justifies predator teacers.
Chris Keates, a British teachers’ union representative has stated that teachers who engage in consensual sex with students over the age of 16 should not be prosecuted. 16? Why not make it 15 or 14 or 13 or 12 for that matter if one is using this insane logic? That is correct folks, sex laws are unfair to teachers as they should have no responsibility if a teacher has an affair with a student. Consensual sex? By the very definition it cannot be consensual when one is a minor and the teacher holds a position of authority.
Chris Keates, the general secretary of the National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers, said in an interview to be broadcast in the U.K. on Monday that teachers who have sex with pupils over the age of consent are guilty of a mere “error in professional judgment,” and should not be placed on the sex offenders register, the Mail reported.
“There is a real anomaly in the law that we are concerned about,” the Mail quoted Keates as saying. “That is that if a teacher has a relationship with a pupil at the school at which they teach—it could be an 18-year-old pupil—then that teacher can be prosecuted and can end up on the sex offenders register.”
Exactly what does Chris Keates thinks is going to be a deterrent from teachers having sex with their students, detention? Let’s just slap them on the hand and say don’t do it again. If teachers do not like the punishment of being labeled a sex offender, then don’t do the crime.

Government Socialist Bailout: Wasn’t the Point of the Bail Out Package to Stabilize the Markets?
Wasn’t $700 billion supposed to stop this from happening? This is why quick fixes do not work.
The government, both the President and members in the House and Senate told the American people that the purpose of the $700 + billion bail out was to stabilize the markets. As Michelle Malkin points out that is hardly the case.
- Markets in Asia tumble amid fears of growing financial turmoil
- London plunges as banks pump billions into market
- US STOCKS-Futures tumble as credit woes fan global rout
- European Turmoil Hits U.S. Stock Futures
European, Asian markets plunge on crisis fears
Investors took scant comfort from Washington’s passage of a US$700 billion plan to buy bad assets from banks and other institutions to shore up the financial industry on Friday because of the uncertainty still hanging over the details of the deal and the degree to which it will help.
It would appear that Asian investors are skeptical of the bail out plan. This is wjy throwing money at a problem never works. A comprehenisve plan and method to fix the problem which created the crisis is needed. That and a couple of people behind bars. So much for the government having a clue that you do not correct capitalism with socialism.
Just when America thought that $700 billion was the answer to the American economic woes, the “Fed sees Lending to Companies, States as Next Crisis Fronts.” I guess the America tax payer is supposed to bail out everyone.
More PDS, Palin Derangement Syndrome … CBC’s Heather Mallick … “White Trash Palin Has Porn Actress Look”
A note to Heather Mallick, once again I would rather be white trash than … ugly. Once again Sarah Palin is the target as she scares the living daylights out of liberals as she does not fit the stereotype they have set for Republican women.
Yes that is correct, more PDS, Palin Derangement Syndrome, this time from north of the border. Its not just the American MSM that has been evil toward Sarah Palin, add Canada as well. Canadian columnist Heather Mallick wrote an article on September 5, 2008 entitled “A Mighty Wind blows through Republican convention,” discussing Republican Vice Presidential choice Sarah Palin. The Canadian lib questions why Sarah Palin was picked as the Republicans had already sewn up the “white trash” vote. She also contended that Palin had a “toned-down version of the porn actress look.” NICE!
Heather Mallick contends that small towns are places that smart people escape from, for privacy, for variety, for intellect, for survival. Palin should have stayed home.”
I assume John McCain chose Sarah Palin as his vice-presidential partner in a fit of pique because the Republican money men refused to let him have the stuffed male shirt he really wanted. She added nothing to the ticket that the Republicans didn’t already have sewn up, the white trash vote, the demographic that sullies America’s name inside and outside its borders yet has such a curious appeal for the right.
So why do it?
It’s possible that Republican men, sexual inadequates that they are, really believe that women will vote for a woman just because she’s a woman. They’re unfamiliar with our true natures.

September 11, 2008 … 7 Years Later … Do You Remember Where You Were when the Twin Towers Fell, the Pentagon Attacked and Heros on Flight 93 Went Down
Remembering September 11, 2001; the horror and the heros … Have you 
forgotten? President George W. Bush will observe the 7th anniversary of 9–11 with a moment of silence.Where were you? What were you doing? Those that forget the past are destined to repeat history. We are sadly today reminded of the events of the morning of September 11, 2001.
Scared Monkeys in many respects was born out of this day. A horrific act of terrorism against the USA where we as citizens could no longer put our head in the sand and think that if we ignored evil it would just go away. Many of us lost colleagues, former class mates, fellow church members and people among our communities that day. One thing is for certain, an innocence was lost where we as individuals could never ignore what was going on anymore. Country first always folks, you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us.It should not take a 9–11 to always remember that and we should not have to experience this ever again. Always remember, evil is evil and freedom is never free.
It has been seven years since the fateful morning of September 11, 2001 when a plane hijacked by muslim terrorists crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City. Then another plane hijacked once again by Islamofascists flew into the second Trade Center Tower. Then the Pentagon was attacked. Then a fourth hijacked plane went down in a field in Pennsylvania.
From the horror and hysteria stepped forward heros and the American spirit that has made this country what it has always been … the envy of the world. As buildings fell, firemen, police and rescue workers charged forward to rescue their fellow men, women and children.
Then among all the panic, hysteria and unknown the passengers aboard Flight 93 showed the resolve of what Americans are made of and made a stand. The heros of Flight 93 will never be forgotten. Do not ever forget there is a little “Let’s Roll” in all of us. Take a moment to remember that today. Take a moment to always remember and never become complacent with the fact that America has enemies because of what we represent … Freedom!
FREEDOM IS NEVER FREE
It did not matter what faith, creed or color they were or political persuasion. The heros of 9–11 risked their own lives because they put other’s safety first and they put America first above all other.
DO YOU REMEMBER … HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN? YOU BEST NEVER 9–11!!!
If you have forgotten here id a reminder:

Little China Girls … International Olympic Committee (IOC) Launches Age Probe for China Gymnast He Kexin … Just count the Birthday Candles
Does anyone really believe this girl was 16? Earth to IOC … under age gymnasts is a performance enhancing drug!!!
Instead of playing the China National Anthem during the Female Gymnastic gold medal ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics, they would have been better served to have played David Bowie’s “Little China Girl”.
After much uproar and skepticism over the Chinese under age gymnastic athletes, International Olympic Committee (IOC) has decided to look into the allegations that many of the Chinese gymnasts may only be 14 years old. In a sport like gymnastics where ever move, appearance, bobble, and look is scrutinised by judges not only during the event but via laptop computer after the event is over … the IOC can’t seem to be able to actually verify individual’s birth dates! Why don’t they just take a look at the last birthday cake and see how many candles are on it.? That is if gymnasts were allowed to eat cake. In the end, it took a blogger to bring the IOC to their knees and the cry for an investigation.
China gymnast at 14 … Gateway Pundit
Suddenly she is 16
The International Olympic Committee has ordered an investigation into mounting allegations that Chinese authorities covered up the true age of their gold-medal winning gymnastics star because she was too young to compete.
An IOC official told The Times that because of “discrepancies” that have come to light about the age of He Kexin, the host nation’s darling who won gold in both team and individual events, an official inquiry has been launched that could result in the gymnast being stripped of her medals.
The investigation was triggered as a US computer expert claimed yesterday to have uncovered Chinese government documents that he says prove she is only 14 - making her ineligible to compete in the Olympics - rather than 16, as officials in Beijing insist is her age.
Local blogging hacker done good … Stryde hax. Its about time some one turned the tables and hacked the Chinese for a change.
In the Baidu cache, which apparently has not been hit with the scrub brush (yet), two spreadsheets published by the Chinese government on sport.gov.cn both list He Kexin’s birthday as 01-01-1994, making her 14 years old. For as long as these links work, you can access the documents directly, either using the directions and screenshots above, or these links: cache1 cache2
As the Gateway Pundit stated, “Reporters said the amount of evidence was insurmountable… No kidding!” Previously the Chinese were busted for scrubbing web sites of their female gymnasts age. The Jawa Report shoes further evidence from Chinese government web sites of their ages and that they cheated.
Date of birth … 1994!

Dutch Producer Hans Pos: Movie on Disappearance & Possible Murder of Natalee Holloway in Aruba
A Dutch producer, Hans Pos, of the Shooting Star Film Co. has announced plans for a movie and looks to capitalize and exploit the 2005 case of missing Alabama teen Natalee Holloway in Aruba. Why do we say exploit? Pos has announced that the film will be “loosely based” on the events that took place in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway.
AMSTERDAM — Dutch producer Hans Pos of the Shooting Star Film Co. has announced plans for a feature film loosely based on the 2005 disappearance and possible murder of American student Natalee Holloway on Aruba, one of the islands in the Dutch Antilles.
Pos will base the film, which he also will direct, on the crime novel “Vuurkoraal,” by Dutch journalist Annet de Jong. Screenwriter Simon de Waal is working on the adaptation. Pos plans to release the film in 2009.
Dutch film to dramatize case of missing teen
However, there do seem to be two positive aspects to a “loosely” based movie being made. One, the press release referenced the following, the 2005 disappearance and possible murder of American student Natalee Holloway on Aruba. Two, it will once again bring the story back into the public eye in the Netherlands and continue to haunt and follow Joran Van der Sloot.
UPDATE I: The ‘Holloway-adaptation’ will most probably not be shot on Aruba but on Curaçao
The ‘Holloway-adaptation’ will most probably not be shot on Aruba but on Curaçao, says the production office in Amsterdam. Producer Pos had already filmed the movie Baby Blue there together with the murdered Dutch film-maker Theo van Gogh. Whether he will use the same local Curaçaoan team, is not clear as yet.
Ever since crime reporter Peter R. de Vries filmed the suspect Joran van der Sloot with a hidden camera, the Holloway-case has received a lot of attention from the Dutch public.

American Tourist Daniel Perry Dryden Murdered aboard Sailbaot on Lake Izabal, Guatemala (Arrests Made)
Another heinous murder to report from the Caribbean, “Beauty and the beast”. It was their retirement dream, it ended in nightmare …
A US tourist, 66 year old Daniel Perry Dryden was hacked to death by 
robbers armed with machetes aboard his sailboat that was anchored in Lake Izabal, Guatemala. Four men armed with knives attacked and killed Daniel Perry Dryden as their yacht was docked in Rio Dulce, a town on Guatemala’s Lake Izabal. His wife, 67 year old Nancy Dryden was wounded seriously in the attack as her lung was punctured from stab wounds; however, was recovering in a Guatemalan hospital.
“They poked us and stabbed us with the machetes, and they were asking for money, specifically dollars,” said Dryden, who was listed in stable condition at a hospital in the lakeside town of Morales.
The thieves were apparently unhappy with the take. “We had a few quetzales (Guatemala’s currency), but we had no dollars with us on the boat,” Dryden recounted.After assaulting the couple, the men demanded she hand over the keys to the vessel, which has an auxiliary motor. When she didn’t — she was unable to tell whether they wanted the keys to the boat, or a small dinghy the couple used to get to shore — the men left, also apparently by swimming.
Clark Rockefeller Positively ID’s by FBI as German National Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter
It started out as what appeared to be an all too common parental abduction of their child. Clark Rockefeller had snatched Reigh Rockefeller (Reigh Storrow Boss) and was presumed headed to the Caribbean. However, Clark Rockefeller was located and arrested by police in Baltimore, MD and Reigh was safely returned to her mother. One would have thought that this story was over. However, it had just begun as no one truly knew who Clark Rockefeller really was.
The question remained … WHO WAS CLARK ROCKEFELLER?
It now appears that the FBI has positively determined that actual identity of Clark Rockefeller. He is 47 year old German National Karl Gerhartsreiter, born in West Germany in 1961. The FBI says that Rockefeller is definitely Gerhartsreiter. Gerhartsreiter emigrated to the Unites States in 1981. Clark Rockefeller was matched to Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter through finger printing.
The FBI has exposed one of Boston’s “longest cons,” using fingerprints lifted off a wine glass and a 27-year-old immigration document to prove accused kidnapper Clark Rockefeller is really a serial fraud from West Germany.
