Incredible Close to a Successful Convention

The final night of the 2012 Republican National Convention ended with a bang! There were three very big speeches tonight of which I want to quickly comment and analyze.

The American Adventure

After a week of blogging on some intense topics, I need something a little lighter, and what better a topic on which to lighten up than Disney!

Democrat Version of 9-9-9

Herman Cain gained much attention from his 9-9-9 plan, but it looks like the President has his own ideas for 9-9-9, but not the kind we like.

Rising Gas Prices in an Election Year

And just remember, after George W. Bush allowed for offshore drilling, gas prices fell and by Election Day 2008, I saw prices in New Jersey as low as $1.79/gallon.

Cozying Up to the Environmentalists

No surprise in this news that occurred Wednesday: President Obama has rejected a the Keystone Pipeline permit. Cozying up to his friends on the left to stir their emotions and take their money for his $1 billion goal in 2012 is apparently more important than creating jobs and giving America the opportunity for a greater access to energy from friends. When energy costs go up (and they will) and the U-3 goes up, no matter how much the Department of Labor attempts to cook the books, we can look on this day and blame the president for his lack of leadership.

T Minus Three Weeks

Just a little Public Service Announcement from your friends here at "The 'Right' Solutions:" the light bulb we have come to know so well, the incandescent light bulb, the "Edison light bulb;" will be illegal to sell on January 1, 2012. They are being replaced with the stupid and dangerous florescent "curly-Q" bulbs, which are more expensive, as well the even more expensive LED light bulbs. It's very sad the Republicans did not work to overturn this stupid law when they took over in Congress.

Three more weeks to stock up...I know I have (the sales are out there) and I recommend my readers do the same!

Snowed In

Just one day after Christmas, the Northeast was pounded by an enormous blizzard that has left travel delays and much snow in its wake: 20" in New York, 18" in Boston, 12" in Philadelphia, and more in some places. What made it worse was the fact that there were strong winds all day that created extremely large snowdrifts in the Mid-Atlantic region! Driving has also been downright treacherous.

If you don't have to go anywhere, I'd stay home, as side roads still need a little more work. Safe travels for anyone having to get around.
