"Democratic lawmakers urged the administration not to use federal stimulus dollars to help finance a wind-energy project that involves a Chinese maker of wind turbines."

Our tax dollars at work. :/

Senator Casey was on Greta Van Susteren’s show talking about this. I call it Obama’s Chinese workers employment program.

It is possible that the Obama administrtation has figured out how to become less experienced for every minute that their time in office increases?

This seems to be....dare I say....UNPRECEDENTED.

None of this would be happening wer it not for the internet, talk radio, and bloggers. Shining the light of truth on these bastards is getting them to change their ways. Now that’s change that I can approve.

Everything BO touches turns to crap. It is no accident either.

Some of the news today is the finding of increased methane emissions in the northern climes.

Well, which is worse as a greenhouse gas: CO2 or methane? I vote methane.

And, what is the easiest way to get rid of methane? Why, burn it (or oxidize it) of course.

And then, what are the byproducts? CO2 and H2O!

And here's another riddle for all those farmers out there who want subsidies to make alcohol as a fuel supplement: When sugared components are fermented to create ethyl alcohol, what byproducts are generated by the billions of yeast cells? Why, CO2 of course!

Trying to regulate CO2 is one of the most foolish endeavors ever undertaken by the political class and those politicized scientists. CO2 is a byproduct of life itself; the only way to get rid of it is to halt the creation of new life.

Another one of “his better options”. He is so freaking smart, we should all worship him and turn our families budgets and lives over to him.

If we are going to use Stimulus money, borrowed from China, to give Chinese jobs...in the US, we would be better off just giving them the money straight up and officially call it repayment towards money borrowed.

On Thursday, big utility operators and some state officials blasted the administration's formal announcement that it would drop plans for a federal nuclear-waste vault beneath Yucca Mountain, Nev.,

For years, my power company has been paying into the fund that would develop Yucca Mountain as the repository for their nuclear waste. Of course this cost has been passed down to me in higher utility rates. Since the Federal Government has now acted in bad faith and has defaulted on its legal obligation, I want my money back.
