All this yapping about alternative sources is a crock of sh*t when we have 100s of years worth of extractable fossil fuels readily available.

I dont have a problem with us finding alternate fuel resources. I’m all for spending the research money for it too.

But we need something NOW. And if a harp seal had oil in it’s head I’d be all for drilling it.

the biggest crock about alternative energy is the assumption it’ll be cheaper. if you develop a way to turn salt-water & sunshine into gasoline but it cost $20 a gallon to do it, people will still be buying gas at $4

What most don’t seemt to comprehend is that it’s both, not one or the other.

We have excellent alternatives for electricity production. Nuclear and hydro being among them. It is the flying of airplanes and running of ships, trains, planes and automobiles that need the oil. Nothing is going to be more efficient or cheaper for quite some time.

Voters don’t know squat and believe some ritual will make the ships return with more goodies.

Solutions. Drill, drill, drill, drill, drill. Nuclear power, nuclear power, nuclear power, unclear power, nuclear power.

Your right. We need to utilize the technologies we already have. We also need to expand on the potential ones in the future. Nuclear energy needs to be utilized. We need to build new refineries. We need to tell the environweenies to get stuffed and make it possible to get these things done. Drill ANWR. Get that oil in the Gulf before the Cubans do (and they wouldn’t do it as cleanly as we would). The list goes on.

IOW, they just want us to shut up and vote for their liberal because he’s better than the other liberal?

Oil Consumption per day....



The EnergyTards in Congress are full of 'hillary' on alternative energy....as Kudlow said, wind and solar can at most replace 10% of our current energy usage....

Last night a trucker called the Lars Larson show.
http://www.larslarson.com/
They are starting a campaign with tshirts and writing on their trucks:

DRILL IN AMERICA NOW!

Their object is to be seen all over the country.

And if we don't, we're cowering useless enablers of the overthrow of America.

Of course, this overlooks their own pathetic inability to do anything beyond acquiesce to RINO demands.

Unclear power-—that’s wind power on a foggy day.

“Voters Say ‘Drill’ - Neither candidate gets it.”

It was a mistake to label oil as an addiction. Dems now portray themselves as the good guys fighting addiction.
