The Dems don't want solar power, wind power, tidal power, coal power, atomic power, or oil fired power. If we could only harness their hot air, we would have all the power we need.

So this is what she’s doing when she’s not spilling state secrets.

If the conservationists wanted to control what happens there, they should have held on to it.

Democrats favor solar power if you’re building a natgas power plant, or a coal-fired power plant.

They are against solar power if you’re planning a solar plant.

They favor wind power if you’re planning any other kind of power plant. They are against wind power if you’re building a wind farm.

They are not serious people. Only a fool would elect these people into office.

Dear Senator Feinstien, how much time have you spent in the Mojave Desert in the last 5 years? 10 years? In your whole life? It’s the frickin’ desert and hardly anyone ever goes there. If that’s a bad place for solar, let’s outlaw all solarrelated activity.

What a NIMBY liberal idiot!

Hey, Fineswine, how can a region as nasty as the Mojave possibly be spoiled by anything? Have you ever seen it?

I’ve been through it a bunch of times, and I haven’t seen any part of that desert that couldn’t be improved. That includes 29 Palms!

All Dems from now on can't use any modern tool. They must go deep in the woods and just starve.

The environmentalists are Watermelons -— Green on the outside and red on the inside...

Most are simply useful fools and well meaning morons being used by enemies of the Republic, economy and capitalism...

They have been captured and run by enemies of the Republic — exactly as has the NAACP, PUSH, ACORN, ACLU, AFL/CIO, Code Pink, Boobs not Bombs, Homosexual Lobby, Civil Service Unions, Teacher’s Unions, etc, etc.......

Soon, I fear the long burning fuse will finally reach the powder and we’ll have one hell of a problem.....

Yep. The rich environmentalists aren’t really environmentalists. They’re gangsters for big corporations with government ties, and they’re only trying to keep the competition down.

The environmentalists who work with their hands are very much in favor of cheap energy, and they far outnumber the other kind. The old hags who are only concerned about appearances need some duct tape enhancement or to have their corporate bosses cut down to size.

We’ll go for the latter. Don’t buy anything that you don’t really need for a few years. Boycott the Obama economy!
