[Tell It Right]

As a reminder, it wasn't ancient history when the Dims were touting natural gas as "clean burning" and would save our souls from our carbon sins if we used more of it.

Now they hate natural gas more than Stacey Abrams hates Weight Watchers.

You can't tell me that the Dim leaders are so dumb that they can't make up their minds on if natural gas is good or bad for the environment. They're obviously using their warmageddon cult to be manipulative.

The Democrat Party: “Anything to hurt America.”

This is a poorly written headline. In common parlance, “drops” would mean “letting go of” or releasing and not using. For instance, the Patriots dropped Coach Mayo from his role as head coach. The other meaning of drop, to insert into, is less commonly employed and is not a good choice for a headline.

[SpaceBar]

Woke journalism.

Can’t wait until President Trump in a few weeks from now speaks of this and why this agency (guessing EPA) is being closed down for good and will not receive any further funds. Sadly the GOPe/RINOs will not cooperate so these type of thoughts remain fantasy.

Natural Gas, which is mostly Methane, is the cleanest natural fuel in existence,
Maybe Hydrogen is cleaner in theory but it has its own set of problems that makes it much more expensive to produce and handle.
Nuclear would be great if we could only convince (or bypass) the greenies.

2029? The natural gas grid will be in shambles by then.

The House needs to impeach ChiComjoe for giving aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States... even if the Senate is unlikely to convict him.

“..The Democrat Party: “Anything to hurt America.”...”

That’d be them.
The RAT party should be made illegal in the USA.

How about Banning democrats from Banning things

[ronnie raygun]

I for one are for using the force and the monetary strength of the federal government, OUR TAX DOLLARS to chase down each and every scumbag back through obama and prosecute

[DennisR]

“You can’t tell me that the Dim leaders are so dumb that they can’t make up their minds...”

Yes I can. :)

[Paal Gulli]

Show me where in the Constitution it says POTUS has the constitutional authority to ban ANYTHING, much less water heaters.

He doesn’t have the authority but he is Chief of the Executive branch, so federal employees have to follow his instructions or suffer the consequences.

So Trump47 can countermand anything and everything OBiden has done.

[Democrat = party of treason]

LOL, F JO BIDEN’s unelected puppeteers.

[Spktyr]

Except the usage has changed over the past three decades to indicate a product being released to the public.

“Taylor Swift just dropped a new album.”
“Apple just dropped a new iPhone.”
“Ford just dropped the new Mustang.”

[armourenthusiast]

I remember a time not long ago, when the Supreme Court ruled that the EPA could regulate C02 as a pollutant. Before that, not so much.

[AbolishCSEU]

Just quoted one of our lower income customers the price for a new LP non condensing regular tank style water heater. Even at that she said it would take her almost a year to save for it. I can only imagine how long it will take her to save for one of these “green” wonders.

[webheart]

I just noticed how many times you just used the word just.

[Cold Heart]

I’m going to buy the water heater that burns old tires for fuel.

“Ford just dropped the new Mustang.”
