COMMENTS:
Canada has a surplus of oil and has indicated a desire to
sell it to the U.S. as opposed to other countries. God bless them, but Obama is clearly against
the pipeline because, he wants energy prices in the U.S. to soar for a variety
of reasons, one of which is probably to line the pockets of some of his influential
Middle Eastern friends and to ensure a comfortable retirement for himself. His position is clearly contradictory to the
wishes of the majority of Americans and Congressional members who relish the thought
of having additional oil flow into the country.
But then again, Obama doesn’t give a hoot what anybody else thinks.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Why is it that the Russians are so reluctant to accept
U.S. help on the security for the Olympics?
(Carla ~ Reno, NV)
A. Just what makes you think we are God’s gift to
international security? The Russians invented spying and police actions and Putin
was the master of it for many years.
Obama, on the other hand, is undoubtedly the worst possible President
this country could ever have during such a threat. Besides, the Russians now have Snowden and we
don’t.
Q. I’m really concerned about the threat of cyber-attack. We depend so much on computers in this
country; I really think it is possible to shut the whole country down and throw
us back into the dark ages. How can we
protect ourselves? (Luke ~ Sun City, AZ)
A. You are correct in being concerned. To start off, we need to quit being so
cavalier about what computer protections we do have. We talk about firewalls and anti-virus
protections as if we are invulnerable.
But, there are thousands of professional and amateur hackers out there
looking for ways to get in. The
proliferation of sophisticated but infected emails and malicious malware is
also disconcerting. I think we have to
start by taking our computers off line when we are not sitting in front of
them. I’m not only talking about home PC’s,
but mainframes as well. Businesses can
communicate in bursts as opposed to staying on-line continuously. We need to change passwords frequently and
keep them strong. Keep your gas tanks
full and have extra water around. Be
alert. If your computer does anything
unexpected, immediately get off line and run a full-system virus scan. It may be inconvenient, but I’d rather be
safe than sorry. Those are my
recommendations.
Q. What do you think about Israel discovering and stopping an Al
Qaeda plot to blow up the U.S. Embassy in Tel-Aviv? (Tanya ~ Morgan Hill, CA)
A. Back to the first question of the day, (above). If we’re so damned smart and capable, why
didn’t WE catch it? This is one big reason why I trust what the Israel government has to say about Iranian nuclear progress much more than what Obama tells us. I think our spy
works are so busy trying to find out what Obama’s domestic political enemies
are up to that we have let national security go to pot, or Colorado.
