Hanan issued an injunction halting the implimentation of Obama's Executive Order, ruling that implementation would be impossible to reverse if the plantiffs in the case ~ a group of 26 states ~ prevailed. Obama, the president of the United States, the learder of the 'free' world, the most powerful political position on the planet, had no choice but to stand down. Here in America, we call this our system of checks and balances. So much focus has been placed on the battle between Congress and the White House that everyone forgot the judicial branch can render them both moot. As you know, a train pulling 100 oil taker cars derailed a few days ago. What you didn't know is that this train actually had supposedly newer, safer tankers intended to prevent accidents just like this one. No one was killed, but this could have been a lot worse as we have seen people killed in the past by similar accidents. A new study confirms what I have been saying since the Smurfs and Elmos first sparred over federal unemployment extensions ..... denying unemployment extensions got people off their duffs to the tune of 2 million jobs. Funny how the need for money will encourage such activity .... Sometimes you have to take whatever job you can find, while you continue searching for what you want. Speaking of waiting for the job you've always wanted, Jeb Bush is launching his campaign to keep and honor his family name while stating the obvious: I and my brother are different men.  Our combat mission in Afghanistan officially ended in Afghanistan. Big Ceremony. NATO flag lowered. ..... That's all very nice, but I have one question ..... Why are we stepping up our offensive on the Taliban and Al Qaeda militants?

It Is Not Just About Picking Your BattlesMonday Night On Jump Right In with Splash ...... One of my favorite business books is titled Ready, Fire, Aim, by Michael Masterson. The book discusses the 4 stages of a successful business's life cycle. The first stage, of course, is the most harrowing as most businesses fail in the first 6 months. One of the biggest internal obstacles to launching a business is the belief that you need ALL your ducks in a row, before you even test your product's or services's viability. You do need to line up some ducks ..... the necessary ducks ..... but requiring every single duck to be in place before you make a move can prove to be paralyzing.  This is the problem I see with the new Elmo majority in Congress. The Elmos passed the XL Pipeline Bill, but then came the DHS bill and the Elmo's insistence that it contain riders to limit the president's executive orders on immigration. Suddenly, this one extra duck has got the whole line of ducks confused, bottle-necked, paralized. As it relates to 2016, The Keystone Bill and the DHS bill are a perfect contrast between the right road to the White House and the wrong one for the Elmos. Also on tonight's show, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, is a wine connoisseur..... I love her even more now. Now that our combat efforts in Afghanistan are over we will be stepping up our efforts in ..... Afghanistan? Thangs that make ya go hmmmmmm. And we have to talk about Yemen.

The DC Soap OperaAhhhhh .... fresh of a good night's rest, I rolled out of bed, cranked up my computer and, just like a soap opera you've missed for a week, not much has changed. The Smurfs occupy the White House and a sustaining minority in both the House and Senate. This gives them the veto and the Filibuster. The Elmos hold a substantial majority in both congressional chambers giving them agenda control and the ability to bring any bills to a vote and even pass most of them. Getting those bills signed or overriding a veto is an entirely different matter and a veritable impossibility. Neither side seems willing to compromise much so what is the point? Why pass bills that have no chance of being inked by the prez? Why make presidential proposals that have no chance of seeing the light of day? From the President's $4 trillion Budget dreams to the Elmos vision of a world without Obamacare, futility seems bountiful and needs to be addressed. Also, Iran and John Kerry are just driving me nuts so we will jump into their centrifuge once again. All of this and more on Tonight's episode of Jump Right In .....

Our president told his fellow Democrats (Smurfs) that he is going on offense. While the veto is defensive to its core, we got a pretty good glimpse last night of what the president meant by offense. What is he doing other than goaltending under the basket? Picture Obama trying to steal 3rd base, caught in a pickle. McConnell is plaing 2rd; Boehner is playing 3rd. McConnell is telling Obama  to stay on 2nd where it is safe; negotiate with us; compromise with us. But Obama's third base coach (pick any progressive) is waving him in telling him not just to steal third, but go for home, so Obama takes off. Boehner shakes his head as if to say, "I knew he was going to do that." Now Obama is caught ..... running back and forth to avoid being tagged out by the glove of irrelevance.He throws this goodie at the people then that. ... this then that .... all the while saying he will take it away from the people in the sky boxes in order to pay for them. "FREE hot dogs and ice cold beer for everyone!" he yells to the people in the stands. The people cheer, but they know he is just shouting. They know he can't deliver. They know that he is out. No one will get a free hot dog. No one will get a free beer. No one will get anything. Why? Because that is what happens BETWEEN 2nd and 3rd base. You're trapped, with no chance to get home. The pickle you get caught in serves up some short term excitement until the runner is tagged out, hanging his head for the walk of shame back to the dug out. THIS was Obama's speech last night. An exciting pickle that will end with Obama .... AND his fellow Smurfs ..... called out in 2016.

Of course, Jimmy's prediction was wrong. It has been 4 1/2 decade and the Middle East is no where near drying up. Moreover, Carter was completely unaware of America's own furture potential to meet its own oil needs. For the first time in my life, America produces more oil than She needs and it seemed to happen without anyone realizing it. As America starts to reap the benefits of being a major oil player the price of oil plummets and quite possibly the dangers of a new industry ~ fracking ~ may be lurking. On tonight's show we will look at oil production in the United States and the industry that put us over the hump ~ fracking. Looking to the future it is hard to imagin a world without oil.
