You are living in a cave with one electric outlet and one light bulb. Not much better than your average plain old cave.

I, on the other hand, want to plunder the planet for all her resources (sarc). I want to run my air conditioners (plural) to maintain 65 degrees (I leave them on for my dogs), run my heater with my windows open, go for a drive, just because I feel like it. Have my TV come on instantly, (actually it is already on 18 hours a day), leave the TV or radio on, FOR MY DOGS, when no one else is home, Not to mention two computers (”sleep mode” NEVER), run my huge freezer, rerun my dryer just to fluff the clothes, Wash em twice if they sit too long, leave my outside lights on (just in case) (I do use CFL’s though and motion sensors), run the fan in my livingroom 24/7, leave the florescent under cabinet lights on 24/7 for those unexpected nightly trips, run my water bed heater 24/7, take as long and hot of a shower as often as I want to (cave people are smelly), .......etc.

I want to produce and use as much energy as I want to. We HAVE the coal, oil, natural gas, and nuclear (or nucular) resources for hundreds if not THOUSANDS of years. DOMESTIC energy production produces THOUSANDS (maybe millions) of high paying jobs, including all the secondary jobs it produces, trucking, road construction, retail, etc. NOT TO MENTION, all the money that STAYS HERE in the U.S.A. instead of financing Muslim terrorists trying to kill us.

THIS is the attitude to have, NOT to try the liberal way out, (conservation). Conservation WON'T WORK, and is TOTALLY UNNECESSARY.

I’m with ya on that one.

Especially when I see Obama jetting all over the planet, Washington lit up all night, every night, even empty ‘office’ buildings. And the rich using what ever amount they want to, while telling us that aren’t rich, we have to change our ways!

I’ll use what I want. At least as long as I can afford to. Til Obama’s damage is out of my reach.

First, I am not living in a cave. I have a very nice house and live very comfortably. Second, it is not liberal to be conservative. I don't waste money. I save it for my future. I used my head and made sure I was not wasting money unnecessarily. Because of that attitude I have no debt and likely will never be a drain on society. In fact I paid a heap of taxes this year.

Would you prefer that I waste money, act irresponsibly, get way over my head in debt, start asking for energy assistance and food stamps? Is this a conservative forum because I think I just ran into a liberal that thinks it is ok to waste money.
