Hello, My name is JAYME.

I’ve listened to the Allan Handelman Show off and on for about a year now. Some of his shows are great, some of them not. During his political shows he definitely drifts to the hard left but still tries to paint himself an independent. I’ve heard his continuous rant about how offshore drilling will not make our situation any better. He keeps telling his audience how hard-headed the pro-drilling folks are because the oil would not stay in the USA. He is probably right, if someone outside the USA wants to buy the oil at a higher price than companies in the USA, then we export it. That’s great for us! It’s a global economy Allan! The more oil we export and the less we import ultimately brings the price down! That’s not terribly hard to understand. I bet I hear him say it at least a gazillion times everyday on the air. Stop misinforming people.

I thought this was funny and wanted to blog about it before I forgot it: McCain taking a “Walk on the Wild Side”.

I’ve read all the polls about how McCain is the only choice among Republicans if we want to beat Hillary or Obama in November. The pollsters have overlooked the true conservative voting block that will not be motivated to get out to vote if McCain wins the nomination. Many Republicans prefer to just sit out the vote than holding their nose for a candidate that drifts too far to the left. I can honestly say I wouldn’t be the first in line at the polls. Even buying a bumper sticker would pretty much be out of the question for me. I don’t see a big rally for the GOP around McCain. Romney may or may not be able to beat Hillary or Obama but at least we’d have someone closer to our ideals representing us - not someone who nearly abandoned the GOP in 2001.

My new motto is “say no to citgo”. The next time you pull up to the tank and want to help us give Hugo Chavez a black eye, buy something else besides Citgo brand gasoline. Let’s supply and demand his butt right out of power.
