Democratic leaders, seem to be out of touch with reality.

When you see poll numbers that reflect the lowest approval rating in many years, you have to wonder what they are thinking.

No matter if you are a republican or a democrat when it comes to what congress is doing these days, it is apparent, that something is terribly wrong.

When a truth becomes a lie, everyone should stand up and let it be known that we are no longer ignorant.

Americans are becoming more politically savvy, education and learning is easier than it used to be, now anyone with a computer, can learn the truth, yet we see statements from democratic leaders that suggest that we are all ignorant.

Do they really think that we will not vote them out of office?

In july of this year, for the first time in a long time, the approval ratings dropped to single digits, 9 percent, that is an incredible number.

If these people were employed at a corporation, they would be fired.

One of the most important issues facing congress is deciding to drill for oil in our outlaying regions, or off shore drilling.

Environmentalists, seem to go crazy when confronted with this issue, so much so that they have become illogical, " Spock would be dumfounded "

The truth is that if we do not do this, someone else will do it.

Think of it this way, far under the ocean, in the deep portions of the sea beds, there is a pool of oil waiting to be drilled.

This can be safely done, however, no matter where you stand on this issue, know this,

If we do not drill someone else will do it, Even now it is rumored that China has plans to drill in an area where we cannot do anything about it, China will Drill into this pool of oil, do you think they care about an environmental problem if it occurred.

So I ask this question, who would you rather be drilling, the oil that exists in this region?

Foreign countries? or US contractors?

Because it is no longer a matter of an environmental concern, it has become a concern of who will drill not if we drill.

Think about it, China will drill into this pool, effectively Sucking the oil out from under our feet.

So really to anyone who says that we should not drill, they are just plain out of touch with reality, this includes Barack Obama, because someone is going to drill, if it is not us then it will be someone else, standing on the issue of not drilling is just foolish.

the Blogging Hour

When do you Blog?

In the morning, the afternoon, at work, on your lunch break?

There are varying opinions about this, but it seems that around 10 AM to noon and beyond appear to be the top time slots for blogging.

I do some of my best blogging in the AM hours, before the phone starts ringing and the neighbors start knocking, call it the interruption factor, I can concentrate better in the early hours, because there is little or no interruptions.

Once I get started, a phone call can delay or terminate the thought concentration process more so for me as I tend to go from thought to thought as I am writing and if there are constant interruptions, it makes it very difficult to complete what you have started on writing.

Online Dating Websites

Imagine for a moment you are an introverted Internet user,
(statistics reveal that a large percentage of Internet users are introverts)

Online dating can be a way to get to know someone that might lead to a good friendship.

The down side is that there are many of these so called dating websites that use deceptive practices to engage the website visitor.

Some of these unscrupulous websites actually have pictures of fake members, robots, emails that seem to be from a real person,however in reality it is designed to do one thing and that is to get you to pay a fee to be a premium member.

Often on these websites you are presented with pictures of impossibly good looking people, all waiting to meet you if you only pay the fee.

This is simply fraud and should come to an end, very quickly, however this is not the case with most of these websites.

Some of the websites actually are endorsed by business reporting agencies, with trust seals and the like.

The reality is that these websites exist for the sole purpose of defrauding the member.

Just remember if it seems too good to be true, photos of people that appear to be modals, emails from members that clearly
state that they are interested in a certain age group and you are not in that age group, there seem to be so many of these websites out there that legitimized websites are also suspect.

Some websites, will allow you to view a profile, while most will only allow the viewing of a profile after you have paid to gain access to membership privileges.

In a recent experiment, I searched for a dating website, and was presented with a number of member profiles that were well nothing short of a miracle, I have lived in this city for many years and I can say confidently that the number of online profiles that fit in with the information I was presented seemed impossible.

So I signed up and once I got into the member area, none of those amazing profiles were available.

Not one single profile that was shown before signing up was actually present in the members area.

Take a lesson from someone who knows, keep looking, there has to be a better place to meet people online.
