Cuba enters the 21st century, lifts ban on common electrical appliances Americans take for granted
By Rob Janicki
Apparently Cuba is balancing consumer demands against it's ability to produce sufficient electrical energy. What most Americans don't know is that Cuba has had an electrical energy problem that led them to ban most electrical appliances for fear of overloading an antiquated electrical grid. Taking a chance, Cuba has reversed itself in hopes of quelling public unrest.
The problem is that most Cubans will not be able to afford the larger appliances that will undoubtedly put an increased load on the national electrical grid system. Since the ban Cuba has still experienced some sporadic regional electrical outages that have left up to one third of the island in darkness.
Cuba has lifted an import ban on air conditioners and other energy-sucking appliances, and now residents can bring up to two appliances per person into the country.
Since 2005, the country has prohibited individuals from bringing into the country air conditioners, refrigerators and microwaves, due to widespread energy shortages and power outages,... Washington Times
Some of those energy sucking electrical appliances include toasters, irons, microwaves and water heaters. It makes you wonder what they had been using since Castro overthrew the Batista regime on January 1, 1959.

The truth is a terrible thing to waste, unless you're White Hose Press Secretary Jay Carney
By Rob Janicki
I think it's time we think of holding a fundraiser for Jay Carney. I can't imagine how Carney will ever get a job in the private sector once his gig is up at the White House. Carney proves on an almost daily basis, or whenever he holds a press conference, that obfuscation and prevarication are his only two stock in trade press conference tools as the public flack and mouthpiece for the Obama administration.
Listening to Carney respond to reporters questions is an absolute test of truth on trial and truth loses every time with whatever Carney throws out as a response. Carney almost makes me yearn for the days of Robert Gibbs. Okay, that's just an exaggeration, since Gibbs was just as bad at presenting truthful responses to reporters questions. Perhaps it's Carney's bad luck to be the press secretary at the most disastrous point in the most corrupt administration in modern American political history.
When Carney comes up with another wild, crazy or downright illogical response to a reporter's question and the press room, filled with MSM reporters, begins to groan, you just have to know that Carney is a hack with no credibility. Since a White House Press Secretary only has their credibility as the currency to justify their reason for being a press secretary, it clearly indicates that Jay Carney is intellectually and ethically bankrupt.
How much longer will Jay Carney last? I don't pretend to know the answer, but the odds against Carney remaining White House Press Secretary for the remainder of Obama's second term, are increasing exponentially with each passing day and every fabrication he puts forth to answer press questions. The chances are mounting that he will be somewhere else by the next inauguration in January 2017.

Delusional Democrat senator Mary Landrieu (D-La) goes on a rant calling Tea Party senator a dictator
By Rob Janicki
In what would be an absolutely laughable moment, if it weren't so serious ...
Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., scolded Tea Party Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, for acting like a “dictator” by demanding that Senate Democrats promise not to raise the debt limit during conference meetings with House Republicans.

Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., scolded Tea Party Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, for acting like a “dictator” by demanding that Senate Democrats promise not to raise the debt limit during conference meetings with House Republicans.
“We don’t have kings anymore,” Landrieu said in response to Lee on the Senate floor this afternoon. “We don’t have dictators anymore. We don’t have people with special powers . . . not anyone in this chamber is entitled to write the budget exactly the way they want it.”... Washington Examiner
Note to Mary Landrieu: If you haven't noticed lately, your president has acted more like a dictator than any president in history. Perhaps people who live in a glass castle, as servants of the want to be emperor king, shouldn't throw rocks at others seeking to maintain our country as a constitutional republic. Does anyone really pay attention to what this political drone has to say?
