Believe me, the ammo box will never be substituted.

The "WTF" days keep on coming with sharply increased frequency

I agree with you and I do like that song.

Sorry, but all of these decisions were based upon environmental group pressure - no matter party

You may be right. I don't know the specifics of who made these decisions and why, but I doubt that the national interest was the only goal for everyone involved.

I give a darn when this started.

Agree.

Obama says it looks like this

But eventually.....

RE :"This is an Air Force decision for 50/50 fuels and it was made in 2007 when Bush was the president......
.... Oh, if GWB was in power when a decision was made, that makes me feel a LOT better /sarc
"

Once again I will reference the GWB-Pelosi 2007 Energy bill Obamanation that mandated expensive, wasteful, poluting , inefficient ethanol and banning safe light bulbs. Even greenies refuse to take responsibility for ethanol now.

Claiming GWB was involved is about as inspiring as saying Obama was involved.

Bifuels is just Hollyword nonsense. A sucker is born every minute. U-238 is getting his WWII history from this movie.

Oui! However, I just noticed that sometimes the .jpg file displays and sometimes it doesn’t.

'The Formula' movie was on cable a few weeks ago and I watched part of it. Those evil oil companies will kill anyone who is a threat to their $$$ profits by pushing ‘cheaper’ alternatives, I saw it in the movie.

Then again I saw the China Syndrome which claims that we are better off buying oil from our enemies than using nuclear power here. Those libs just cant get their conspiracies straight.

I see your picture now.

A similar story is “Brownshoes” by Theodore Sturgeon (not a movie, just a science fiction short story, 1969). A hippie engineer discovers a kind of perpetual motion machine, But in this story, he cuts his hair and trades his sandals for brown business shoes, and with his profits he hires a whole building of lawyers, so that he is ready for the inevitable attack by the oil companies.

So then, with the aid of his devices, humanity enters a golden age, irrigating the deserts and eliminating hunger. Everybody lives happily ever after, except his hippie ex-girfriend, who is disgusted that he “sold out” (perhaps a metaphor for anti-capitalists).

It's fun to reflect on how you and I AFTER seeing history unfold over the decades see the world different than younger less experienced ignorant voters, any of which Obama is counting on to save him again , the rest going to Ron Paul.

I was in college when the China Syndrome got to my cable TV taking college physics around the time of Three Mile Island . Later in college I had to take thermodynamics. (a reason why I don't fall for these endless snake oil con jobs as the suckers do.)

If you think back to Three Mile Island and The China Syndrome era the libs made energy independence out to be the destruction of the United States. Remember how the reactor cores would eventually reach China ?? (Heck that would eliminate the need for disposing of the waste products LOL.)

Where were the ‘energy independent’ liberals when that battle came up?? They were Banning Nuke power as they try to ban domestic oil production right NOW.

RE :”Since you so smart what is your short term and long term plan

1) Give up bi-fuels and electric cars, and stop wasting our money on snake oil
2) Drill more and produce more coal and natural gas domestically
3) OK the oil pipeline
4) stabilize the dollar
5) Let prices naturally rise or fall, let consumers decide to conserve to save money if prices go up on their own.
