After FL Governor Rick Scott turned down Obozos money for a high speed train, the poser says it is to bad because he understands that the rail project would have made a profit the first year it was in operation. Idiot people believed him.

we are so screwed

[knarf]

I believe it.

I believe at LEAST a million new employees have been hired because of at least 8 or 10 invented agencies (with czars) were created out of thin air.

All those gummint employees are the drain on tax money.

Guy is a monument to stupidity.

A blueprint he outlined in a recent speech calls for .... making cars and trucks more energy efficient and building vehicles that run on alternative fuels or electricity.

This the same "Magical Thinking" from the days of Jimma Carter.

[bray]

Why didn’t he just say there would be a gazillion new jobs? Where are all the jobs from the stimulus?

Pray for America

[vetvetdoug]

I am going to have to eat a whole bottle of Beano because Obammy just pumped a bunch of air up my butt.

[Doogle]

...another astounding statement from the noble peace prize winner.

POS

[FormerACLUmember]

The media accepts the most insane lies in the history of the presidency with out of the slightest criticism.

[Doogle]

don’t forget the pensions and lifetime medical care

[DooDahhhh]

No

[depressed in 06]

Only a Bolshecrat would believe that pinning your hopes on $10 gasoline when you cannot afford $4 gasoline would create jobs. This goofball thinks that taking $6 away from those that can afford $10 gas creates $6 worth of jobs, when, all it does is impoverish everyone.

Are there that many Amricans who really believe in this mythical form of energy that they would believe his lies?

[crescen7]

It is honestly maddening that we have a President that is a moron. Sorry. It’s true.

He’s banking the productivity of the largest economy / energy user in the history of humanity on something that does not exist. Not only does it not exist - it can’t exist. The physical limitations of the production of energy and the economics of its sale and delivery make it IMPOSSIBLE to create large numbers of HIGH PAYING JOBS and simultaneously produce large quantities of LOW COST ENERGY!

Now matter how energy is produced, it can only be low cost if a very small number of people are employed making it. Even an idiot can figure that out. Could we not at least elect an idiot?

Oh well, Huckabee won some straw pole, maybe we will.

[calex59]

Somebody call him on this nonsense, please!!! 1.8 million new jobs? WHERE?

Yep, I would like to see him break those jobs down by company and tell us exactly how many went to each company. What a crock of crap.

[R_Kangel]

We need to realize that when the left uses the phrase.... "We are too dependent on Foreign Oil" They are actually meaning ..."We are too dependent on Oil."

They don't give a rats crap about whether it is foreign or not....all they care about is that we convert all energy over to Obama's special rainbow and moonbeam generated power immediately! To them ALL oil is eeeeeeevil!

[Sacajaweau]

We'll NEVER need less oil or gas or electric. All those NEW forms will take years to develop.....and should be considered as supportive industries not replacement industries.

In other words, "Drill, baby, drill!!!!"

There is plenty of gas drilling in northwest Louisiana. In just two years over a billion cubic feet of natural gas has been pumped out. It is estimated there is over a trillion cubic feet of natural gas in the Shreveport area.
