POPSTALK ABOUT REVISIONIST HISTORY; KENNEDY/CHAPPAQUIDDICK sure, teddy's presidential appeal was compromised simply by a fatal car accident in which ted was the driver. how about he was undoubtedly drunk, was with a woman not his wife, they were presumably planning to have sex (they had been part of a group of married men and single women... 'boiler room' girls during bobby's prez campaign... drinking and up to 'no good') when teddy drove the car off a small bridge. what ted did then is what caused his demise as a potential prez. while ted was able to get out of the submerged car, mary jo kopechne remained in the car. CONTD.

POPSOBAMA BREAKS PUBLIC CAMPAIGN FUNDING PROMISE. The lengthy quotes of Obama justification for rejecting public financing of the prez campaign. Quite amazing how principle fades if one has enough principal in the bank. Obama wrote: "In February 2007, I proposed a novel way to preserve the strength of the public financing system in the 2008 election. My plan requires both major party candidates to agree on a fundraising truce, return excess money from donors, and stay within the public financing system for the general election. My proposal followed announcements by some presidential candidates that they would forgo public financing so they could raise unlimited funds in the general election. The Federal Election Commission ruled the proposal legal, and Senator John McCain (R-AZ) has already pledged to accept this fundraising pledge. If I am the Democratic nominee, I will aggressively pursue an agreement with the Republican nominee to preserve a publicly financed general election."

POPSADDITIONAL DRILLING NOW, BENEFITS IN 5YRS With total world consumption near 90million barrels a day, an additional 1-2 million barrels/day from the USA will not affect the world 'spot' market price. Nonetheless, we should drill and encourage other non-OPEC providers, i.e., Canada and Mexico... our current top 2 of foreign oil suppliers, to similarly boost production. With such added production from 'friendly' suppliers, the world 'spot' market price will fall. Moreover, the 'spot' market has been used to drive prices up although 90% of all oil is contracted to oil majors at much lower prices, yet, who conveniently use 'spot' market prices to value/sell all oil thus producing the 'windfall' profits of oil 'bigs' the last few years.
