Cite facts ... this is so false, we should not dignify it with a reply!

What I live in the farm regions. Most of our farmers can tell you they are paid to not plant half their land . They would tell you, they want imports into the country . Where have you been, open you eyes when you drive through the farm lands of America how much of it is not planted. You must have grown up in a city area. I did not. As far as stating that if we became energy independent of foreign oil the middle east would not be angry and lose a lot of money prove to me it is not true. The oil companies lobbied our pres before Clinton and Bush 41 to drop all the energy ideas we had in the 70s. Look I can't stand Jimmy Carter but he was right about solar and gas made from corn. Oh yea , you want facts since at this time of the year I visit the farmers I know personally, for a lot of produce, ever hear of the stove that burns all day on a small bag of corn. Yes you want facts well there is one out there,and the dealer told me they are so back ordered they cannot keep them in stock. You want facts , go visit the farmer's, or better still call you congressman and ask him if I am right.
