Global warming is a scam, and the energy problem can be solved quite simply: DRILL, BABY, DRILL!

In Charleston, McGinn said he is not promoting any one political party or person, but he lavished praise on U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., the only Senate Republican who has spoken favorably about a proposed plan to limit greenhouse gas emissions."Senator Graham is a leader," said McGinn, who praised Graham for his military background and "good intellect."

I don’t get the dependence on foreign oil argument for alternative energy. We are going to show our enemies by running on inefficient energy sources? Plus we mostly import oil from countries closer to us, like Canada, Mexico, and Venezuela. At least countries in the Middle East, like Saudi Arabia, are providing acceptable utility with their oil exports... which is more than can be said for alternative energy advocates, like T. Boone Pickens, who are rent seekers that want something for nothing.
If we don’t buy from the Middle East, someone else in the world will, and the effects on aggregate supply and aggregate demand will not be significant. It’s a silly kabuki dance argument which results in an increase in the cost of living for the average American.

McGinn hasn’t defected to the enemy - he’s using judo. He’s quite comfortable dumping global warming. But with it he’s pushing nuclear power as carbon neutral, and without it as clean energy. The Lefties are squirming around him trying not to even report the nuclear option he’s sticking in their faces as an obvious and highly satsifactory solution to their warming/energy crisis crap.

Isn’t it though? I was just talking about tall ships with an acquaintance a couple of days ago, and that beautiful ship was talked about.

Seems we are still stuck on stupid even after Katrina.
One small but moderately equipped terrorist attack on our Houston refineries will cause a run/panic energy price inflation, that will devastate our economy.

If this Admiral is representative of our military's leadership, we're screwed! His head is so far up PC's butt, he just has his big toe left showing.
He probably believes that Islam is a religion of peace and conservatives are a threat to national security.

We can't drill for oil. We can't built nuclear. We can't built oil refineries. Clinton put Utah coal off limits. This is madness courtesy of the ecotard-progressive politician alliance. Thanx

He's a caricature of the guy in Mars Attacks!! who met the Martians in the desert outside of Las Vegas and got blowed up good.

There’s definitely a reason of incompetence as to why this guy is retired. It is scary that such people inhabit our military “protecting” us. What an embarrassment.
