Mr.White said last night that Adbul Farouk Whateverthefookhisnameis should be carted off to Gitmo for a waterboarding session. I agree. If invited to visit Gitmo, I would ask if I could pour the water myself. Or better still, kick him in the stomach, gonads, and kidneys. Those Jihadis should be thankful the typical American male is not conducting the interrogations. They’d learn a new meaning for “medieval.”

This post covers two seemingly unrelated topics. But the smart among you will realize they are intertwined.

Yet another red diaper baby I’ve worked with in the past proclaimed President Joker’s address on Al-Arabiya last winter to be a brilliant act, like a cruise missiles straight into the Jihadis. Uh huh. No, President Joker is a laughing stock among the Jihadis, and he is making America more vulnerable than we can imagine.

The only reason several hundred people didn’t die on that Northwest flight? Abdul Farouk Whateverthefookhisnameis was incompetent, and the syringe that would detonate his bomb didn’t work.

President Joker, the system failed, and you are helping the system come apart. After 9-11, we had no more such problems, did we? Whatever we might think of Bush–he spent too much, he wouldn’t fight to win against Barney Frank, and Iraq could have been handled much better–at least ol’ Jorge and Cheney kept the Jihadis in check.

My only problem? We gave up much of our freedom and dignity to achieve that security. Better to be realistic, and ship the Muslims out. They play nice for awhile, but once there are too many of them, they turn ugly, as they do in Europe. Europeans will have to fight a bloody civil war to get rid of the Muslims. They ought to think about doing it soon. The following is a rather explosive video. Take from it what you like. Europe is committing suicide. President Joker would like America to do the same. I think you’ll see much that is familiar. Makes you wonder why the political left elites hate Americans so much.

You’ve read my view: round up all the Muslims and cart them back to the sand box. North America and Europe become Muslim-free zones. They want to blow things up? They can kill one another over in the sand box.

You want to be free of the sand box? Then build 100+ nuclear plants that spool out bazillions of kilowatts of electrical power (bazillion is a technical term). Tap the oil in Alaska and offshore. Run the Chinamen out of the Caribbean and off the shore of Brazil and Venezuela. And look to alternatives that actually work, ones you might not ever have heard of. Like, say, ammonia, which burns clean and leaves behind nothing but water vapor–and you can get rid of the stink of it.

Janet Napolitano does not inspire confidence in these matters of security. She wants to spy on people like me, and many others on social networks. But she calls terrorism a “man-made disaster.” Nonsense. The Northwest incident? Ah, that was Muslim Jihadi scum trying to murder hundreds of westerners.

One of the few points where I agree with President Joker? The West CAN invent its way out of the Middle East, beyond oil. We do not have to ride bicycles, or drive around in wienermobiles. Initial steps?

• Starting, well, now, build new US pickups and SUVS with small turbo diesel engines that return excellent mileage while delivering that grunt power Americans love. Americans love pickups and SUVs, and this simple change would save millions of barrels. Some estimates conclude that if we built all our pickups and SUVs with modern diesel engines, and maybe some of our cars, too, we wouldn’t need any oil from the Sand Box. Over time, the old gas-engine trucks would simply disappear, or become collector pieces.
• Drill offshore.
• Drive the Chinamen out of Cuba, Brazil and Venezuela. It’s our oil. Go to hell, you Chinamen.
• Use CNG (natural gas) to power fleets of large vehicles, like buses, delivery vans and delivery trucks, farm vehicles, and other large vehicles that are stored outside (where the vapors cannot be trapped because they safely vent into open air) and can be refueled outside.
• If you don’t need a giant truck, get a car. No need for a wienermobile, but not everyone needs an Escalade. Get a Taurus or Fusion, a Malibu. Better mileage. And you’d help save hundreds of thousands of American jobs.
• And explore fuels that can be used with our existing infrastructure, meaning that Honda or Chevy sitting in your driveway. Ammonia is one. CNG is another.
• Build those nuclear plants to generate massive amounts of electricity. Make it cheap, and people like your Mr. Black, who live in urban areas where they rarely drive too far, can even run electric cars.

Don’t remain ignorant. That’s what President Joker wants. Frankly, it’s what the Republicans want. If you’re ignorant, they can lie to you.

Get the Muslims off our continent, and out of our hemisphere. Develop energy on this continent so we can let the sand box shrivel and die. Seize their money, tell them to drink sand and oil.

I wrote this some time ago, and am reposting. It’s a good starting point to understand the dangers of Cap and Trade. The fight is not over.

BEGINS:

So I’m driving back to the coast after a visit with my dear old uncle who lives in the boonies of California. Long drive, over a mountain range, a desert, and some of the uglier parts of LA and Orange County.

I tune into KABC Radio, Money talk. Today’s guest? Charley Maxwell, the guy who is considered the guru of energy in the US, the man Wall Street turns to. he works for a consultancy, Weedon Co.

Guess what? This guy, the smartest man in America when it comes to energy, espouses the very same views we do, here at We The People.

He thinks Obama is sniffing glue when it comes to solar energy and wind. Currently, we derive less than 1 percent of our energy from wind, and even if we invest aggressively, this guy figures it will never be much more than 2 percent. Hmmmmmm.

He then turned to solar, and brought up all the issues I’ve heard before in discussions with engineers, particularly with systems engineers. It takes a huge amount of energy to create the solar panels and the bits and pieces that go with them to deliver the energy to the grid. By the time you factor in the energy needed to put solar panels in place, then measure how much energy those panels will produce before they need to be replaced, you gain virtually NO energy.

Now, here’s the shocker. Common sense from the Sons of Liberty is validated by Mr. Big Brain. Here’s what he favors:

• Clean coal technologies, which can be brought online in the next decade. Use America’s abundant coal reserves to generate electricity.
• Second, and he used the very same argument we do, let’s go nuclear. It’s clean, it’s pretty safe, the US Navy knows as much about nuclear energy as any other organization on earth, and nuclear can deliver for the US.
• Finally, and this is where I personally feel just a little bit proud, Mr. Smart Guy is in favor of tapping America’s enormous natural gas reserves. New techniques have been developed to safely and cleanly extract the gas from the rock beneath the Rocky Mountains, and Sarah Palin and her natural gas pipeline could certainly deliver. Maxwell made a clear point about how the Obama administration could look pretty smart if they decided to pursue natural gas energy. Maxwell almost sounded like he’d been reading our site, because he cited the Honda Civic that’s powered by natural gas, and pointed to the fact that new types of storage tanks are coming online that would give vehicles plenty of range. ((Added on 11-19-09: We’ve further researched and discovered that this fuel is best used with buses and mid-size deliver trucks that are stored, fueled and operated in open areas where vapors cannot be trapped. I spoke with a relative who was once a fire captain and chief arson inspector,and also with another retired fire captain. They both love gasoline for its stability, and say CNG vehicles should never be parked in parking structures where vapors can be trapped in the ceilings.))
• On the downside, Maxwell shares my view that E85 and other bio-based gasoline substitutes are really a dead end, as they take as much energy to create as they give back. He also said Ethanol cannot be made with feed grains (human or otherwise) that might drive up food costs. And that at best Ethanol was only a way to extend gasoline, not replace. He also acknowledged that E85 simply doesn’t have the bang for the buck that gasoline does.

Who knew? The Sons of Liberty and common sense mesh up pretty nicely.

Hey, Obama, you freakin’ moron. Maybe you should listen to the Sons of Liberty and quit lecturing us about global warming and the need for solar power.

When President Joker tries to stab America in the back with Cap and trade, remember this story about Chinese trash incinerators from the hyper-left New York Times.

Al Gore is lying, the Green Marxists want to eradicate humans so ?mother earth” will be happier without us, and for some reason the Democrats hate economic growth and prosperity for the broad swath of Americans.

You can reference earlier posts about cap and trade to understand better. Al Gore and President Joker want to castrate the American economy by making energy very expensive.

do not believe the lies that come from President Joker and General electric about how we’re all going to thrive on Unicorn Power from solar, wind and tidal. Give it up.

To understand better, please also reference our many earlier posts about energy policy. It’s fairly simple.

• Build a minimum of 100 nuclear plants to ensure electricity is cheap and plentiful for US homes and US industry.
• Drill for Alaskan and coastal oil to up the available quantity of crude oil.
• Tap into the natural gas reserves in the Rocky Mountain region and elsewhere in the US, including Alaska. Sarah Palin (you know, the woman the propagandists at NBC claim is a moron) orchestrated the deal to build the natural gas pipeline in Alaska. Alaska is ready to feed cheap, fairly clean energy to the lower 48 states. Yeah, that Sarah. She’s SUCH a moron. Hey, NBC, go to hell.
• Convert the US passenger car fleet (that’s all the cars, trucks and work vehicles we drive every day) to a mix of gasoline, clean diesel, CNG (natural gas), series hybrids (Chevy Volt, which only kicks in the gas motor as a generator to deliver electricity to the batteries when needed), and perhaps pure electric cars for the Ed Begley wingnuts who mistakenly think electric cars are cleaner because they don’t see the pollution being produced.
• Help Venezuelans depose Hugo Chavez as dictator and ensure all that Citgo oil comes to us.
• Kick the Chinese and Russians out of the Caribbean, where they have formed drilling partnerships with Cuba. With slant drilling, the Russians and Chinese can steal oil from US territory. The Caribbean is our lake, we run it, and the Chinese can go to hell.
• As to solar, sure, fine, you want solar panels on your warehouse or office building or home, put them up. But President Joker, don’t try selling us on the idea that solar will power the whole country. that tells me you’re still smoking dope and snorting coke. Dude, you’re out of your mind.
• NASA would argue that sometime in the next half-century we might be able to harvest solar power from satellite farms in High Earth Orbit, and beam microwaves to earth. I wonder if beaming microwaves to earth in volume would fry humanity, but we’ll leave that bit of sci-fi to NASA and Hollywood.

The answer is not to choke America, cutting off its flow of cheap energy. The answer is to ensure there is cheap energy in forms we can use NOW, and continue to invent and lead and innovate for the future.

Well, it’s about time, too. I watched a bit of the news this morning. You know, those blabberfest shows with journalists stroking one another.

After a brief stint with Chris Matthews (he had a bunch of sexed-up female liberal reporters carrying on about how incredible Obama really is), I flipped to Fox. (Chris Matthews really is a piece of filth. I’d love to put him in the Sons of Liberty octagon and beat his smarmy ass.) They had some senator or congressman on giving the Republican pitch on energy. It sounded familiar for some reason. Then again, I merely picked up john McCain’s argument that the country should go nuclear. I’ve long believed it, but at least McCain said it. I used to body surf on the southern coast and I was always fascinated with the concrete dome containers for the nuclear reactors in San Onofre. Give us another 100 of those on top of the existing reactors and we will have all the electricity we need.

Another point to consider? Pebble bed reactors. Read about them here. Mr. White brought these to my attention. The Chinamen are working on this concept, but thankfully so too is MIT. I once worked with a top ten engineering school. MIT is almost always ranked at the top. They have the best minds in the world. Get them busy on this program.

Most amusing? This guy referred to his proposed 70+ new reactors as a “fleet,” picking up on the fact that the US Navy has as much expertise in nuclear technology as any group on earth. That made me chuckle.

Thankfully, the Republicans are also talking about natural gas, of which this country has almost immeasurable reserves. Certainly no one yet knows how much we have. Learn more at these links. And our reserves.

And thankfully this guy brought up Hugo Chavez. He was polite–hey, he’s some storke politician–and said we could develop our own energy so we would not have to buy from Hugo Chavez. Well, the Chinamen would step in and take it. Screw them. Better to let the CIA do its work, take down Hugo Chavez, and get that oil for ourselves. Let the civilized folks in Venezuela overthrow this creep, and then we can happily continue with Citgo.

Let Sarah Palin send all that natural gas south to the lower 48. Excellent.

The Republicans still do not thrill me. I think they figure we’ll all vote for them because we can’t stand Obama and Pelosi Galore. Well, I got nes for you humps. YOU BETTER REFORM AND GROW A PAIR, START ACTING LIKE MEN, AND COME UP WITH A PROGRAM THAT SPEAKS TO SMALLER GOVERNMENT, SELF-RELIANCE, MARKET SOLUTIONS INSTEAD OF GOVERNMENT TAX-AND-SPEND SOLUTIONS, AND THE REST OF THE CONSERVATIVE LINE. Republicans have a lot of making up to do if they want our votes.

The Tyrant of Kenya and our so-called president, Hussein Obama, has now seized control of General Motors. Hussein and his apparatchiks have decided who will run the company.

Admittedly, Rick Wagoner needed to go, as we’ve stated here in the past. The man has screwed up by the numbers. So, we will not cry at his departure. But he should have been allowed to step down quietly sometime in the next few months with a smooth transition of control. he botched many things–Wagoner negotiated the worst union deals of all time, and then tried to buy up foreign companies as a way to expand GM power into new markets, including BUYING FIAT–but the man did not deserve this. This is Marxist humiliation, pulling down “the great man” to satisfy the ignorant supporters of Hussein.

We strongly object to the Marxist-Socialist strongarm tactics of this Kenyan thug who has somehow become president of the United States. And we hope that in the end he fails in his efforts to establish government control over all free enterprise. Yes, that’s right, We hope he fails.

Hussein is such an arrogant son of a bitch that he thinks that the “boom and bust” cycles can be stopped if people just listen to him. Well, Hussein, you’re an asshole who has never done ANYTHING beyond campaign and vote “PRESENT” when a senator. Economic cycles cannot be suspended because you think it’s a cool idea.

Keep in mind that this seizure of GM is being done in great part to spare the precious union workers a GM bankruptcy, which would allow GM to slash labor costs and get rid of the considerable dead weight it carries in labor contracts. Hey, those union slobs voted for Hussein. Here’s the payoff.

We have already stated our views on energy and transportation policy, as well as the need for free markets.

• General Motors should declare bankruptcy and deal with the unions, in particular the legacy burden of health care.
• The US government, rather than strangling America for energy, should ensure that America has abundant, cheap energy. This WILL NOT be provided by solar-, tidal-, or wind-generated electricity. Hussein is attempting to force an energy theory on the most efficient economy in the world.
• America is the most productive nation on earth, and uses energy more efficiently than any other nation on earth. We SHOULD NOT be punished for that.
• Americans like big cars. This is historic fact. Forcing General Motors to produce imitation Japanese cars is stupid. But that’s what Hussein wants.
• Hybrid cars are a technological dead-end unless the drive system is adapted for use ultimately in hydrogen-power vehicles, but that day is far away.
• Where will we get hydrogen? Probably from the Sarah Palin natural gas pipeline form Alaska, but you’ll never hear Hussein and his henchmen admit to it.
• Hussein has this all backwards. With cheap, abundant energy, Americans can choose–repeat, CHOOSE–to buy the products they like. Cheap energy favors Detroit and will help bring them back to prosperity.
• Keep in mind that Ford has a brilliant CEO, an engineer’s engineer, and Ford’s are very much back in the game, if only Americans would give them a chance.
• GM products are actually pretty good once again. The Chevy Malibu is no Toyota Camry, but most owners won’t know the difference. ANd if we had proper energy policy, Chevy Tahoes would sell like hotcakes. Tahoes are pretty damn good.
• We recommend drilling offshore and in Alaska and the Caribbean to produce more oil and allow America to help control the price of oil. Gasoline, folks, is phenomenal stuff, with enormous energy stored in it.
• The Palin Pipeline should be completed to bring natural gas to the lower 48.
• Energy companies should be allowed to tap the natural gas reserves under Utah and the other Rocky Mountain states. This can heat homes, and power buses, trucks and cars.
• We should depose Hugo Chavez and put decent people back in charge of Venezuela, and thus also gain access to that oil.
• Run the Chinamen out of the Caribbean. It’s OUR lake, and they should NOT be allowed to have the oil in the Caribbean.
• Grandfather in European-market diesels produced by Ford and GM, and allow these high-mileage engines to help reduce American dependence on foreign oil.
• Get rid of the CAFE standards. No other country forces these standards on its people.
• Close down or severely restrict the antics of the Berkeley-educated psychotic Eco-pagans who run the California Air Resources Board, which has foisted dead-end technologies on America and the auto industry, forcing creation of pointless hybrids, and before that fully electric cars like GM’s brilliant but unsustainable EV-1. CARB must be castrated, not given unlimited power to Balkanize the US market for energy and transportation.
• Finally, build nuclear plants to help power America. Over time, if battery technology develops, nuclear plants can provide clean, reliable power for fully electric vehicles. But UNTIL THE DAY COMES that BATTERY TECHNOLOGY makes sense. we’re use gas, diesel, and CNG.

If Americans have ANY sense left in their heads, they will descend on Washington and demand that this Tyrant of Kenya change course. As we KNOW  he will NOT, then make sure all those Blue Dog conservative Democrats understand that they’re going down in the next election if they pass the psychotic measures this Kenyan imposter president is trying to shove down the throats of America.

Resistance is not futile. It is the duty of patriots to resist this imposter president.

For those of you relatively new to our blog, I am pulling this very early piece forward and posting it again, with minor changes. You need to fully understand WHY cap and trade will be a disaster for America, and you must resist it at all cost.

Thanks to the Internet, it’s fairly easy to get ahold of key documents. Here are some quotes from a document we found posted online by an organization that has obviously put a lot of effort into the concept of cap-and-trade. You’ll quickly see why this concept is a big financial scam designed to capitalize on Al Gore’s big global warming hoax. Little surprise that Al Gore is now in bed with the venture capitalist firm, Kleiner-Perkins, to develop a means for buying “carbon credits.”

In short, we think cap-and-trade is a bizarre form of socialism, perhaps of the fascist variety. The government will seize control of our energy industry and reap massive “profits.” So, I guess it’s not enough to seize control of our medical industry, the banking industry, the auto industry, and God only knows what else.

Here is a quote from a doc we found: “Climate change is not only one of the greatest challenges of our time, it’s also an epic opportunity.”

Hmmmmm, Opportunity for what? Sounds like Raumie Emanuel talking about not letting a good crisis go to waste.

Here’s another: “…to adopt policies that effectively curb climate-changing emissions. At base, the threat of climate disruption stems from a single fact: We treat the atmosphere as a free dumping ground. No one has to pay to pollute our shared air. The result has been increasing concentrations of climate-warming gases, along with other maladies of our energy system like oil addiction.”

Again, hmmmmmmm. The basis for this madness is the belief that man is responsible for changes in the climate of the earth. Now, the earth has COOLED each of the past ten years, but apparently that is also considered proof that the earth is growing hotter. So, cold is hot. Hmmmm.

One more: “Cap and trade commits a region to responsible limits on global warming emissions; gradually ratchets down those limits over time; and harnesses the power of the marketplace to reduce emissions as smoothly, efficiently, and cost-effectively as possible.”

Uh huh. What does it really mean? It means that the United States will be strangled for energy, the key to economic growth, while China, India and other developing countries that dump raw pollution into the water, ground, and air will be given a free pass. This is a way for Al Gore and his friends to make billions and eventually trillions of dollars off Americans who are being systematically pushed downward. This is the effective CASTRATION of the American economic engine.

Another quote from this document, which is placed online, available in the public domain: “A cap is a legal limit on the quantity of greenhouse gases our economy can emit each year. Over time, the legal limit diminishes—the cap gets tighter—until we’ve hit our targets and launched a clean-energy economy.”

In other words, you bad Americans will be FORCED to give up your lifestyle, which has been driven by access to cheap energy. It is also based on the delusional belief that we can make it on solar, wind and tidal power, all wrapped up and delivered to you with Obama’s Unicorns. Uh huh. Look back a way in this blog and you’ll find that the leading energy analyst in this country agrees with the Sons of Liberty on energy policy. Obama is selling you not only a bill of goods, but the economic destruction of the nation.

Also, cap and trade allocates the “right to pollute” to the LEAST efficient economies. Now, the US has about five percent of the world’s population, uses about 25 percent of its resources, but accounts for about 25 percent of the world’s entire annual production of goods and services. In other words, we are some mighty productive people who use energy in a highly efficient manner when compared to the rest of the world. And Al Gore and the Eco-Pagans think we should be PUNISHED FOR THIS? I think not. We should be rewarded for this, with MORE cheap energy.

Now, read this quote: “Energy efficiency standards for vehicles and appliances, smart-growth plans, building codes, transit investments, tax credits for renewable energy, public investment in energy research and development, utility regulatory reforms—all manner of public actions can move us toward our climate goals. But the cap is our only guarantee that we will get there. There is no substitute for the certainty of an emissions cap.”

Hmmmm, sounds vaguely Fascist to me. No, actually, it IS FASCIST. Who knew that Al Gore nd Obama were The Boys from Brazil, the latter day sons of Adolph Hitler? Do you see why these folks are salivating at the chance to seize control of our auto industry? And force that industry to produce vehicles that Americans don’t really want? Let’s face it. Americans like Chevy Tahoes. They’re great products: well-made, reliable, powerful, able to haul around the family. Why should Americans be denied access to what they want? Well, because folks like Al Gore want to have the energy for themselves, so they can fly around in Gulfstream jets while we drive around in gutless Obamamobiles.

OK, here’s another quote: “By turning the permission to pollute into a commodity that is bought and sold, everyone up and down the economic ladder gets new opportunities to make and save money.”

So, here’s the scheme. The US will only be allowed to produce X-amount of pollution. Companies and, by the products they choose to buy, citizens will have to bid for the right to pollute.

What do you think this will do the price of gasoline at the pump? Will the price go down? Or, will it jump to six, seven, maybe ten dollars per gallon? If this artificial so-called “marketplace” for “the right to pollute” is imposed, how many of us will be able to afford to drive our cars to work? Not many. So these folks will be able to achieve their goals. We will be shoved into buses, monorail systems, and carpool vans. And Obama will be pleased that while Chinese are buying SUVs as status symbols–yes, Grasshopper, the Chinese just loooooooove SUVs–Americans will be riding around on Chinese-made bicycles, just like all those Chinese hordes did under Chairman Mao. Cap and trade is a way to make the majority of Americans poor, to drive the majority of Americans into the ground, while allowing our evolving “political class” to profit from cap-and-trade and buy “carbon offsets” that allow them to flly around in private jets. Sounds like an aristocracy to me.

These eco-pagans will tell you this system has been proven, as this type of system was used to reduce factory and energy-plant emissions to curtail “acid rain.”

The real goal here? To force Americans to live like Third Worlders, to generate enormous profits for Al Gore and his cronies, to completely distort the marketplace, and to give the government and the new “political class” control of our energy industry.

Now, here is a particularly frightening quote, which shows the bizarre socialist motivations of these Eco-pagans. This certainly blends nicely with Obama’s “spread the wealth” belief system:

“Cap and trade puts the same price on climate pollution whether the permits are given away, auctioned, or some mix of the two. The only difference—and it’s an extraordinarily important difference—is who gets the extra money that consumers are paying for energy: the scalper (fossil-fuel companies) or the public treasury (on behalf of all citizens). Giving away carbon permits is just like handing out money. In economic terms, it’s a windfall profit. How big would these windfalls be? The US Congressional Budget Office (CBO) answers: if . . . all of the allowances were distributed for free to producers in the oil, natural gas, and coal sectors, stock values would double for oil and gas producers and increase more than sevenfold for coal producers, compared with projected values in the absence of a cap. Handing out free permits boils down to taking billions of dollars out of the pockets of energy consumers and handing them to the shareholders of energy companies. Worse, it takes disproportionately from working families. CBO estimates that a US nationwide carbon price high enough to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 15 percent would take about 3.3 percent of low-income families’ after-tax money and, in contrast, only 1.7 percent of the richest households’ income.”

So, clearly this is a punitive tax. And the Eco-pagans want to twist cap-and-trade into some kind of Utopian Socialist redistribution of wealth, with the government holding all the cards. Umm, when did the US become a Fascist nation?

Notice that they refer to privately held companies as “scalpers.” Uh huh. No, these companies invest money in exploration and development to ensure a supply of energy for the US economy. If they make huge profits some years, well, they make little profit in other years. This is a bizarre Granola twist on themes from both Fascism and Marxism. This is VERY DANGEROUS. Wake up, America.

The argument is that the so-called “windfall” of money created by making energy DRASTICALLY MORE EXPENSIVE will be given to the people by a benevolent government. Uh huh.

How about this. I want cheap, abundant energy so I can drive my car and get to work. I don’t need this Gene Roddenberry Star Trek philosophy. And who might handle this windfall of money? The utterly incompetent Department of Energy? Established by that halfwit Jimmy Carter? A department that has accomplished absolutely nothing in the past 30 years? Oh, great. More government bureaucrats.

Our economic growth is fueled by…fuels of all kinds. In short, by cheap, abundant energy which, by the way, is also very “clean” energy. America can produce plenty of cheap energy and continue to be the most productive economy in the world. And We The People views this as the primary goal for any US energy policy.

So, we repeat:

• Ensure that America has abundant and cheap energy.
• Abundant and cheap energy will remove inflationary pressures, allow for banks to loan money at low rates, and ensure our economic growth.
• Drill, Baby, Drill!
• Expand offshore drilling.
• Drill in ANWR, a fly-infested marsh.
• Debunk the global warming hoax.
• Development of Clean Coal technologies to produce electric power.
• Construction of at least 100 new and safe nuclear plants across America, which can in part help charge up your blessed electric buggies.
• Convert buses and taxis to run on compressed natural gas (CNG)
• Encourage investment in CNG infrastructure by oil companies.
• Complete the Palin Pipeline to bring CNG to the Lower 48!
• Drill for CNG in Utah and adjoining Rocky Mountain states.
• In partnership with US-owned automobile manufacturers, promote development of CNG-powered passenger vehicles and for the long–long-long-term explore the development of full-electric and hybrid-electric passenger vehicles.
• Promote the new generation of high-mileage, quiet and clean New Diesel engines in the national fleet, particularly for use in the large SUVs that Americans love and DO NOT want to give up.
• Resist all efforts by the nutty Obama fringe to strangle America’s access to cheap energy, and thereby force us to embrace their insanely premature belief in the potential of solar, wind and tidal power.
• Topple Hugo Chavez and gain unfettered access to Caribbean oil.
• Blunt Chinese efforts to steal our Caribbean oil. Smack down this Cuban-Chinese partnership. Sabotage their efforts if necessary.

Obama and his thug allies in the NYC Media are still blaming Bush for everything. Sorry, Hussein, but this mess is yours now. And you seem determined to run the country into the ground. It’s as if you want to waterboard honest citizens to make them accept your Marxist agenda.

• You constantly talk down the economy. Hussein, how many times in a day can you use the world “crisis”? Take a lesson from Reagan: we aspire to a better world and a brighter day. You’re starting to sound like Adolph at Nuremberg.
• You spent close to a trillion dollars like it was Monopoly money, and we all know the spending will have little impact on job creation. We know you’re full of it.
• You plan to raise taxes on those of us who PRODUCE, and your plan targets small business owners as “rich” people, which means you will punish those who create the most jobs in the US.
• You want to initiate a dangerous war in Pakistan and southern Afghanistan, but you have Rep. Barney “Twinkle Toes” Frank talking about cutting the defense budget by 25 percent. Huh? Isn’t it better to just keep those Kalashnikov-toting turban-top Muslims hemmed in? Do you really want to launch such a war? Bush played Afghanistan smart. You’re committing to a far-off war that will cost alot of money.
• Thanks to your taxation policies and your so-called stimulus plan (which is nothing but a power grab by the Democrat party), the stock market is heading into the toilet.

Once again, the Sons of Liberty deliver their stimulus plan.

1. Capital gains tax holiday for 3-4 years to rev up the stock market. If you hate people who are rich or at the least prosperous, they’re going to hide their money. You, Hussein, are scaring the money out of the stock market.

2. Slash top income tax to less than 25 percent, preferably 20 percent. Give me my money back. Let ME decide how to spend or invent it.

3. Reduce middle-class taxation to 12-15 percent, maybe even 10 percent for a period of 3-4 years. Yeah, now won’t that rev up the business at Applebee’s?

4. Reduce the lowest rate to 5 percent. And make them pay. No more Obama Welfare checks (we all know that’s what Obama’s supposed “tax cuts” really are). You call it a tax cut, but you’re providing a few welfare dollars to the losers who won’t work.

5. Income tax cuts immediately put money into people’s pockets, as of this April. Heck, people will go out and buy their own prophylactics. They sure won’t need free ones from gov’t clinics.

6. Expand availability of Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) that allow people to save pre-tax money for current and future medical needs, and carry-over that savings indefinitely until the day they kick the bucket. And, when the individual dies, that account can be turned over, tax-free to a surviving spouse or to surviving children. Talk about a way to encourage family values.

7. Cuts in capital gains rates will boost the stock market, which will boost our sagging 401(k)s, Keoghs and IRAs. We don’t need you seizing our private wealth and rolling it into Social Security, a Ponzi scheme we all want to avoid.

8. Dramatically slash the size of the federal government, excluding defense spending, which stimulates both the economy and my sense of patriotism. Start by laying off everyone at the Departments of Energy and Education, then closing them. Cut pay for Senators by 50 percent, and maybe 20 percent for Representatives.

9. Sue the state of California to close down the California Air Resources Board. Remove that burden from the auto industry and you’re on your way.

10. Further, drop the CAFE standard for cars and trucks in the US, and let Detroit build what people want. Gas is cheap again and boy, do I see a lot of Chevy Tahoes coming out of the garage now. Electric cars are full of shit. A mix of gasoline engines, clean diesel and some applications of CNG.

11. Begin offshore drilling immediately to stabilize oil prices at a low level and give the US leverage to combat OPEC price manipulations. Cheap energy means growth without inflation. Obama can stick his plans for Unicorn Power. And maybe let’s take down Hugo Chavez and control his oil. And sabotage any attempts by the Chinamen to drill in the Caribe.

12. Instead of pushing for wind and solar power, which are dead ends for the foreseeable future, promote adoption of natural gas for transport vehicles, and build nuclear plants for cheap power.

13. And lucky number 13? Don’t loan billions to GM. Put GM and Chrysler into structured bankruptcies, deal with the unions (we know you won’t, Hussein, but it’s nice to hope), relax CAFE and EPA regulations on the industry, pull together the energy companies and car companies to lay out a strategy to tap our abundant natural gas reserves, grandfather in European clean diesel cars and vans that GM and Ford sell in Europe, consider chopping Chrysler up and giving Jeep to Ford, minivans to GM, and either sell Ram trucks to Nissan or carry it as a brand within GM.

So I’m driving back to the coast after a visit with my dear old uncle who lives in the boonies of California. Long drive, over a mountain range, a desert, and some of the uglier parts of LA and Orange County.

I tune into KABC Radio, Money talk. Today’s guest? Charley Maxwell, the guy who is considered the guru of energy in the US, the man Wall Street turns to. he works for a consultancy, Weedon Co.

Guess what? This guy, the smartest man in America when it comes to energy, espouses the very same views we do, here at We The People.

He thinks Obama is sniffing glue when it comes to solar energy and wind. Currently, we derive less than 1 percent of our energy from wind, and even if we invest aggressively, this guy figures it will never be much more than 2 percent. Hmmmmmm.

He then turned to solar, and brought up all the issues I’ve heard before in discussions with engineers, particularly with systems engineers. It takes a huge amount of energy to create the solar panels and the bits and pieces that go with them to deliver the energy to the grid. By the time you factor in the energy needed to put solar panels in place, then measure how much energy those panels will produce before they need to be replaced, you gain virtually NO energy.

Now, here’s the shocker. Common sense from the Sons of Liberty is validated by Mr. Big Brain. Here’s what he favors:

• Clean coal technologies, which can be brought online in the next decade. Use America’s abundant coal reserves to generate electricity.
• Second, and he used the very same argument we do, let’s go nuclear. It’s clean, it’s pretty safe, the US Navy knows as much about nuclear energy as any other organization on earth, and nuclear can deliver for the US.
• Finally, and this is where I personally feel just a little bit proud, Mr. Smart Guy is in favor of tapping America’s enormous natural gas reserves. New techniques have been developed to safely and cleanly extract the gas from the rock beneath the Rocky Mountains, and Sarah Palin and her natural gas pipeline could certainly deliver. Maxwell made a clear point about how the Obama administration could look pretty smart if they decided to pursue natural gas energy. Maxwell almost sounded like he’d been reading our site, because he cited the Honda Civic that’s powered by natural gas, and pointed to the fact that new types of storage tanks are coming online that would give vehicles plenty of range.
• On the downside, Maxwell shares my view that E85 and other bio-based gasoline substitutes are really a dead end, as they take as much energy to create as they give back. He also said Ethanol cannot be made with feed grains (human or otherwise) that might drive up food costs. And that at best Ethanol was only a way to extend gasoline, not replace. He also acknowledged that E85 simply doesn’t have the bang for the buck that gasoline does.

Who knew? The Sons of Liberty and common sense mesh up pretty nicely.

Hey, Obama, you freakin’ moron. Maybe you should listen to the Sons of Liberty and quit lecturing us about global warming and the need for solar power.

So, Obama keeps referencing this guy who makes solar-powered ceiling fans as part of his grand energy strategy for America. OK, great.

It’s not a new idea. A former girlfriend was and is a horsey chick. Many of the ladies at the stables installed solar-powered lights. They’d charge up during the day, then burn for some hours into the night. Great. But is that enough to change the world? I don’t think so.

The major economic forces I saw at work around the stable? Obviously, agriculture, because horses eat a whole lot. transportation, as they had to haul in a lot of hay, and special feeds. Building trades, as the grounds had to be maintained. And big, big American pickup trucks with diesel engines for pulling around trailers. Lots of money tied up in those big trucks.

And not ONE of those trucks was a hybrid, or an electric car. One can make the argument that because electric motors make 100 percent torque from the moment they start to move, they might be good for pulling horse trailers. That’s an intriguing possibility, but the fact is the battery technology is not there yet, which means Obama’s solar ambitions have severe limitations. And I know. I have a friend who works at a large engineering firm I will not name. They are working on hybrids for a variety of customers who will not be specified. They are working on ways to put water jackets around lithium-ion batteries so they won’t overheat and burst into flames. (You’ve seen this, as BMW is exploring it. Ah, shucks, gave it away.) Guess what? That is not a viable path just yet. You can’t do it yet. Right now, a highly efficient diesel motor running on that evil petroleum-derived fuel, is the best way to haul around horses and other heavy cargo, like truckloads of hay and senior feed.

I’ve read the Scientific American piece in which a group of scientists proposed covering much of Arizona and Nevada with solar panels. OK, great. Maybe they CAN generate enough energy for the US electric grid. But one missile from Korea or China knocks that in the dirt. Besides, clearly, the current state of photo-voltaics is best applied to ceiling fans, not powering the entire country. Get serious.

So again, we say this:

• Drill offshore.
• Tap the natural gas in the Rocky Mountains, Alaska and elsewhere.
• Develop nuclear as a means of adding cheap, efficient electricity to the grid. Hell, if the French can do it, surely we can. Put the Navy in charge as they’ve got a half-century of experience with nuclear.
• Topple Hugo Chavez and gain unfettered access to Caribbean oil.
• Blunt Chinese efforts to steal our Caribbean oil. Smack down this Cuban-Chinese partnership. Sabotage their efforts if necessary.
• Grandfather in Euro-Diesels as part of the US passenger car fleet. This shores up Detroit, and also cuts fuel consumption. The new Ford Fiesta diesel in Europe gets about 60 mpg.
• DO NOT strangle the US car companies by letting psychotics in Sacramento dictate the emissions standards for the country.
• Ensure that America has abundant and cheap energy.
• Abundant and cheap energy will remove inflationary pressures, allow for banks to loan money at low rates, and ensure our economic growth.
• Expand offshore drilling.
• Drill in ANWR, a fly-infested marsh.
• Development of Clean Coal technologies to produce electric power.
• Convert buses and taxis to run on compressed natural gas (CNG).
• Encourage investment in CNG infrastructure by oil companies.
• Complete the Palin Pipeline to bring natural gas to the Lower 48.
• In partnership with US-owned automobile manufacturers, promote development of CNG-powered passenger vehicles and for the long-term explore the development of full-electric and hybrid-electric passenger vehicles.
• Promote the new generation of high-mileage, quiet and clean New Diesel engines in the national fleet.
• Resist all efforts by the nutty Obama fringe to strangle America’s access to cheap energy, and thereby force us to embrace their insanely premature belief in the potential of solar, wind and tidal power.

This video has been around awhile, but it’s worth revisting. The people who have seized power are insane. Do you really think the Queen of Compton should be allowed to seize the entire energy industry?
