Sorry, but American corn is overwhelmingly produced by family farmers.

Probably true, I don't know for sure what a "family farmer" is. But they ain't Big Corn and if they are really just middle class families trying to run farm equipment and pay their bills, this ethanol scam is going to hurt them probably even more than it will hurt us.

This is Big Corn and these are the people who are picking our pockets.

OK, how does ethanol distillation hurt family farmers?

Your hardcore Leftwing source is unconvincing. They're long on criticism of everything, but completely short on facts.

I had lotsa laughs as I paged through their site, but this was the funniest one....the one that made me finally click outta there and go wash my hands:



"zPoint: Iraq policy and not military tactics is the reason for the Iraq quagmire. Cheney is behind its lack of realism and deception. He must be removed from the foreign policy loop or there is no chance of improvement. The military wants Rumsfeld removed.
Are we stuck in Iraq?

The US military believes we are stuck for another five years. The Bush Administration is trapped by the failure of its original neocon plan, its present re-cycled Vietnam strategies, and the harsh reality of the escalating civil war."


If you're going to be quoting sources such as that one, don't be surprised when you have no credibility around here.
