Another hippie idea that is going down in flames.
Again, people who think they are doing good end up hurting everyone in the long run.
We have to use our food for gas, gas prices go up, food prices go up, everything goes up, environment as or more polluted than ever.
Hippies...you don't have a clue...stop messing it up for everyone.
Once again, liberals are directly negatively affecting your lives.
They are making your gas twice as high as it should be...
They don't let us drill
they don't let us refine
They don't like the fact we use gas at all as has been proven by liberals comment on this very blog...
McCain proposes something that can help the economy better than any other plan mentioned...and it is shot down by Obama.
I know Obama thinks taxing the crap out of companies (who create jobs) and rich people (who spend lots of money) will fix everything.
Just remember that every single thing that liberals have EVER introduced has hurt anyone who wants America to be a better place...a place where the responsible are not constantly punished.
Because of the failed thought of liberals your gas is 4 bucks a gallon...period
Republicans introduced a bill to drill in Alaska ten years ago, it would be online NOW.
Liberals complain that we have to use alternative fuels and energy...While that sounds good, they have been saying that for 40 YEARS...how long are we going to wait for them to get their act together...how long can you let your gas get more expensive, how long can you let the economy and quality of life in America deteriorate...
Liberals then show they don't have a clue and put up graphs and charts showing that more drilling is only a small percentage of oil produced...this article shows that (as with most things) a liberals simplistic thought process is a detriment to the cause.
If the US showed the world they were going to stop being brain dead and use just a small amount of common sense the rest of the world would figure out they couldn't keep inflating the price of oil since the United States was going to stop listening to the hippies and use its own resources.
Just think if you told our founding fathers what the hippie environmentalist liberals created a climate where we can't use our own energy resources and have to get it from other countries...
They would have laughed you out of the building.
But this isn't funny.
Wake up America
Stop allowing liberals to hurt you directly, personally on a daily basis.
That's great...
Republicans are on the right side of the issue finally...
But where have you been all this time...
Liberals, as usual, are still and will forever be on the wrong side of another issue
Good.
I know the easy thing to do is blame oil companies.
I have tried to explain why oil companies are making more money, but some here don't seem to have enough upstairs to understand this easy concept.
But this is how liberalism works, you play off people's emotions and look for easy, big-government regulated answers.
It is not that easy.
This is not hard to figure out:
1. If you tax a business, what are they doing to do: Raise prices to get back that money lost. So when they tax the profits of a company, they are raising your taxes.
2. Oil companies have nothing to do with the price of a barrel of oil, that is controlled by GWB (jk)...that is controlled by supply and demand. Since environmentalist idiots have made sure we have no increased supply, the fact that demand has gone through the roof makes the price go up.
3. There is nothing we can do about the fact India and China are taking up more and more of the worlds oil.
Here is what we SHOULD do:
1. Drill for our own oil.
2. Look for ways to use less oil
3. Build more nuclear plants.
Now, liberals will argue that it will take years to drill and build plants...well, Clinton vetoed a bill to drill in Alaska 12 years ago...we would be getting that oil now.
I'm glad to see the oil companies fight back against the easy solution of high gas prices.
What is the "easy solution" for the liberals, just blame the oil companies.
They make 9% profit no matter how much gas is, so that is not the problem.
Two problems that cause a rise in gas prices:
1. 35 years of liberals not allowing us to drill and refine our own oil. Throw in the fact we can't build a nuclear power plant as well as to the entire energy price problem.
2. China, India and Africa using up more and more and more and more oil.
Just remember, 12 years ago congress passed a bill to drill in ANWAR, Clinton vetoed it saying it would take 10 years to get the oil.
Man...we really could use that oil now...
Thanks liberals for our $4 a gallon gas
Thank your nearest liberal today
I agree we need many, many more nuclear power plants, but otherwise this is crap.
What happens if we cut carbon emissions by half?
Who is going to cut by half?
Not Central America, not India, not Africa and not China...I can guarantee you that...
So, with our new President, we will be forces to destroy our economy, lose jobs and lower the quality of life for everyone so a few countries can fight the cartoon villain "global warming."
Even if you believe man has caused it and can control it, you can not stop it unless all countries comply.

NASA has just completed a study that says human activity on Jupiter has caused the planet to warm a great deal near the equator in the past few years...
Huge storms bigger than the planet Earth have formed, and one storm caused wide-spread damage.
During a telethon for the victims of the storm, it was said that "George Bush does not care about whatever the color the people on Jupiter are."

The "science" is not settled...
By Bob Unruh© 2008 WorldNetDaily
More than 31,000 scientists across the U.S. – including more than 9,000 Ph.D.s in fields such as atmospheric science, climatology, Earth science, environment and dozens of other specialties – have signed a petition rejecting "global warming," the assumption that the human production of greenhouse gases is damaging Earth's climate.
"There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate," the petition states. "Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth."
The Petition Project actually was launched nearly 10 years ago, when the first few thousand signatures were assembled. Then, between 1999 and 2007, the list of signatures grew gradually without any special effort or campaign.
But now, a new effort has been conducted because of an "escalation of the claims of 'consensus,' release of the movie 'An Inconvenient Truth' by Mr. Al Gore, and related events," according to officials with the project. "Mr. Gore's movie, asserting a 'consensus' and 'settled science' in agreement about human-caused global warming, conveyed the claims about human-caused global warming to ordinary movie goers and to public school children, to whom the film was widely distributed. Unfortunately, Mr. Gore's movie contains many very serious incorrect claims which no informed, honest scientist could endorse," said project spokesman and founder Art Robinson.
Read the rest.
I wish he would have fought harder for this for the last 7 years, but you can't deny how 100% correct he is...AGAIN this week:
"Our problem in America gets solved when we aggressively go for domestic exploration. Our problem in America gets solved if we expand our refining capacity, promote nuclear energy and continue our strategy for the advancing of alternative energies as well as conservation," he said.
"One interesting thing about American politics these days is those who are screaming the loudest for increased production from Saudi Arabia are the very same people who are fighting the fiercest against domestic exploration, against the development of nuclear power and against expanding refining capacity."
Correct on:
1. We have TONS of oil that we don't even try and get...does getting that oil take care of everything...no...but not even trying to use OUR OWN oil is flat out stupid. Luckily we didn't have liberals around screaming while we were becoming the strongest and greatest country in the world, otherwise we never would have been...
2. Nuclear energy...another issue liberals have brain damage over. Man, it become easier and easier to see what our high energy, specifically gas problem is...environmentalist and regular old liberals making sure these things cost what they do.
Thanks liberals!!!
3. refineries...why have we not built a new one in like 35 years?
4. New forms of energy and conservation....correct, but see, he is talking in a fashion that this is ONE thing we need to do. Only a moron is ONLY talking about this option, especially when you consider any conservation WE do is drown out by India and China using hundreds of times more energy than we could ever conserve.
Call up your Democrat representative and thank them for not using more nuclear energy, for not drilling anywhere we have oil (even in the middle of nowhere) and for not allowing any refineries to be build for over 30 years.
Thanks to you and the idiot liberal environmentalist whose only answer is that high gas prices are good so that we are forced to invent alternative sources of energy.
I guess you guys need to hurry up and turn cat poop or whatever you want to use as fuel into energy quicker...take a few less weed breaks.
great post from Fred
This picture is of an energy efficient compact fluorescent bulb from my home office.
I'm not completely positive how long that bulb had been in use, maybe six months.
One thing I am positive of, this bulb caught fire all by itself. Luckily the thing stunk pretty badly so we were able to cut power and stop this before it got really bad.
How exactly is catching my house on fire going to help stop global warming?
I've never had a normal old fashioned type light bulb catch fire before. And now the government is going to mandate these things????
I'll be stockpiling the old-fashioned ones.
Energy-saving devices called so dangerous everyone must leave for at least 15 minutes
Thomas Edison must be rolling over in his grave.
Less than a month after the U.S. Congress passed an energy bill banning the incandescent light bulb by 2014, the UK Environment Agency issued guidelines calling for evacuation of any room where an energy-saving compact fluorescent light bulb is broken, releasing toxic mercury.
Well done environmentalist wackos. Who cares about people as long as we STOP GLOBAL WARMING!!!!!
You need to read every single word of this to see how truly f-ed up environmentalist whackos are...
Just like liberalism, this thought process goes against human nature...
Just another thought I had about global warming. Who is to say that our climate a few years back was the perfect climate? What if we are headed to the perfect climate? It is possible. What is not possible is that humans can control the climate of the Earth. What is also not possible is to take 100 years of poorly collected data and predict the future of the Earths climate. One final thing that is not possible, even if we kicked global warming into high gear, driving a hybrid or not letting us drill for oil and having $5 a gallon gas will not change a thing, besides putting us in recession and making people lose their jobs....all in the name of global warming!!!
Are they talking about terror attacks?
End of a growing economy due to Hillary winning and higher taxes?
Nuclear war with Iran?
Nope....global warming:
UN WARNS OF RAPID DECAY OF ENVIRONMENT...
'Humanity's very survival' at risk...
EARTH AUDIT: 'Final wake-up call'...
So when I say crazy environmentalist and other far-left wing morons say the end is near, we only have 10 years left, remember this post...
President George Bush is playing the hero again as he tours fire-ravaged California this week. Yet his expressions of concern are not likely to be taken well, since he has stood in the way of that state's effort to fight global warming emissions for the last two years!While Bush is attempting to score compassion points with the people of California, let's tell him not to burn Californians by blocking their duly enacted laws. The EPA must allow the state's Pavley, or "Clean Cars" fuel emission standards to go forward - along with the standards of a dozen other states that have followed California's lead.
Hey, I'm not making this up. We write something, liberals always come back with, "we don't think that, we didn't say that."
Well, since guys like Jim and others say that weekly, you might want to think about starting a new party...because your crazy-far left wing Democratic party does say stuff like, "GWB is burning down California." Crazy people believe that driving a different car would stop wild-fires in California...
Again libs, stop pretending and hiding who you are...all of you, come on out and say these crazy things in public too...
