“New York households will save on average $5.58 per month in electricity costs and $8.00 a month in fuel costs within the next 10 years”

This RINO didn't get the memo. According to Obama it will cost the amount of a postage stamp daily.

Why can’t he just be honest and say that my mommy, Madam Pelosi would have spanked me, taken away my candy and goodies and made me sit in the corner like the bad boy I would have been.

The acid rain statement is laughable.

Can he define “clean energy”? Read my congressman’s responses under Capping America.

Pray for America

Simple answer, because he is stupid and un-American.

As for me, when the cost of propane gets too high, I will switch to wood to heat my house, I have plenty of that.

Good trade for the environment? Makes not difference.

When the enviro-nazis show up at my door, I will just deny that the smoke from my chimney is a fire. They will have to get a warrant.

My usage of SOMA is in the context of Huxley's Brave New World, in which the common folk were mellowed out by a drug called Soma that was provided by their government. You know, keep 'em drugged out so that don't realize how bad things are and are more receptive to B.S. handed them by their leaders.

Unfortunately, as you found out from Google, the word 'soma' has taken on other meanings in the decades since Brave New World was written, and it somewhat clouds the intended meaning when I include that in a post.

“The sad part is that he will fool many of his constituents with this garbage.”

This guy has taken to heart the old saying, “if you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull____”.

I got this same pile of crap from that bastard on New Dorp Lane myself. I intend to answer it point by point. I’ll send the whole thing to the rag on Fingerboard Road but I doubt if they’ll print it.

“I’ll send the whole thing to the rag on Fingerboard Road but I doubt if they’ll print it.”

Better hurry. I got a call from Karen O’Shea, an Advance reporter, looking for a quote on ACES (because I ran the 4/15 Tea Party out here). It’ll run next week.
