#1 I don't agree with her interpretation (spin)

But then I will happily see the entire Arab world go to complete ratshit.

All I see is middle to long term upside. Get off the imported oil addiction and my personal favourite, kill the renewable energy nonsense dead.

#3 "Get off the imported oil addiction and my personal favourite, kill the renewable energy nonsense dead." And Obama will strut out today and announce his intention to do the exact opposite.

Not me. It would have taken 30 years or so to get off the imported oil addiction, 30 years which the US and its allies have UTTERLY WASTED. Now all of us must suffer the consequences, including a huge spike in the cost of imported oil, or maybe even domestic rationing. The oil ticks fighting each other will be a side show compared to that.

#5 Yet much of the world proceeds along in lockstep, like lemmings, under the thrall of the media that these are "Freedom Fighters".

Free to be islamic, perhaps.
