What a joke. And DFM is cheaper than JP-5. Green energy is going to kill us...

[fhayek]

There is so much wrong with this, I barely know where to start...

[digger48]

$16/gallon is right about where Obama wants our gas prices to be.

Of course they see nothing wrong in this.

[C210N]

If it’s politically infeasible to cut the military by 75% (as if 50% is not enough), well the next best thing is to make the dollars they do spend only go 25% of the way they do now.

They cut back on money for the USNA and then p-ss what they “save” on $16 fuel! I can’t wait for Obama and his scub to be thrown out of office!

[SumProVita]

I bet the fuel they have to FLY IN to Afghanistan now is REALLY expensive (delivery cost, etc.).

[Signalman]

What a shrewd use of taxpayer money./s

and America takes another one in the........

[Dogbert41]

I’ll be looking for this story on all the networks and newspapers tonight when I go home...

[MarkL]

Unfortunately, for far too long, far too many people have been elected or appointed by those elected, who see government as nothing more than a conduit for funds from the useful idiots to themselves. It all starts with greed. This is different than "self interest." Greed is self destructive. It starts with people who are thrilled to learn they can vote themselves other peoples' stuff. Then they work to elect people who claim they'll get them even more of the other peoples' stuff. At some point they become addicted to those they've elected, and believe that they can't live without the largess promised by those they elected. They gladly allow themselves to be shackled by those who own them. But the elected know they can just claim it's other peoples' fault that they're not doing as well as they believe they should. And they promise more.

This sort of greed used to be anathema to Americans, and it still is to many. But we're nearing a tipping point, where the looters and the moochers will be in the majority. At that point it will be too late, and the Republic will be over.

Energy & Government Experts:

R. James Woolsey previously was the Director of Central Intelligence and the Under-Secretary of the Navy, and pioneer in the clean energy sector; TJ Glauthier [you know] & Donald Kennedy, former head of the Food and Drug Administration [FDA] all on Solazyme's Strategic Advisory Board

But hey, Newt, Inc. hires out as a government expert/ paid adviser..and he's described across the media as on the take.

Your "whole world is an oyster" when the US Government welcomes you into the fold.

[Napoleon Solo]

Is there any Congressional oversite left in the USA? Where are the muckrakers or has Obo put a target on anything good for America?

[Paladin2]

The US military should be drillin’, baby, drillin’ in Afghanistan.

Solazyme’s partner in the biofuel sale is Dynamic Fuels. What a couple of dummies. Didn’t they realize that they were dealing with the Food Stamp President’s corrupt administration? Hell, if the Justice department can run guns, deal in sex trafficking, launder money, etc., the Dept. of Agriculture could have got these two dummies at least $40 a gallon with $10 kickbacked to Agriculture and $10 donated to the Food Stamp President’s re-election campaign. That would have left them a cool $20 per gallon.

[bushpilot1]

Green Energy is the Trojan Horse for corruption

[denydenydeny]

You won’t be surprised to learn that a member of Obama’s presidential transition team, T. J. Glauthier, is a “strategic advisor” at Solazyme, the California company that is selling a portion of the biofuel to the Navy. Glauthier worked – shock, shock – on the energy-sector portion of the 2009 stimulus bill.

Gangsters.
