Your Questions About Save Energy Now Leader

Do people realize Bush is not at fault for the energy crisis?

Read this:

‘Energy has enormous implications for our economy, our environment and our national security,” President Bush said in proposing the plan. “We cannot let another year go by without addressing these issues together in a comprehensive and balanced package.”

That was in June 2001 — more than seven years ago.

His words came just after he first proposed a comprehensive energy bill that included 105 separate steps the U.S. could take to boost its energy supplies. It was something he promised repeatedly while campaigning for the presidency in 2000. He kept his promise. His first plan included, among many other things:

• New drilling for more oil and gas and new refineries.

• Building of nuclear power plants.

• Revamping the U.S. electricity grid.

• $10 billion in tax breaks to help push energy efficiency and alternative energy.

The fact is, these are remarkably similar to the plans that economists, oil experts and energy wonks say need to be put in place today in order to end our oil crisis.

Yet, those proposals went nowhere — not approved in 2001, not in 2002, not in 2003, not ever. Bush tried repeatedly to get something through Congress. He pleaded. He tried to cut deals with Democrats. It didn’t work.

A New York Times headline from August 20, 2003, sums it up: “Ambitious Bush Plan Is Undone by Energy Politics.”

That’s an understatement. Instead, Democrats ridiculed Vice President Cheney for meeting with oil industry representatives to craft U.S. energy policy — and for insisting on finding more oil.

They had no plan themselves, mind you — apart from massively expensive global warming initiatives that would force Americans to lower their standard of living to Third World levels by spending as much as $800 billion a year to cool Earth.

Yet, if Bush’s plan had been put in place in 2001, we’d have replaced millions of barrels of oil, billions of tons of coal and untold trillions of acre feet of natural gas with clean, safe nuclear power.

We’d be pumping millions of barrels more of oil, creating thousands of American jobs, cutting prices and saving literally hundreds of billions of dollars every year —money that today goes to line the pockets of the Saudi royal family, Venezuelan petrotyrant Hugo Chavez, Libyan leader-for-life Muammar Qadhafi and Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

When the Democrats took control of Congress in 2007, and oil was $50 a barrel and corn $2 a bushel, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid promised an energy plan. We’re still waiting for it. Today, crude oil is $134 and corn is $6.50.

It’s pretty clear who’s to blame: Congress. In fact, House and Senate Democrats have obstructed any progress in America’s fight to regain some semblance of energy independence.

“Now is the time for Congress to move and get something done,” President Bush said all the way back in August 2003. He’s still waiting, and so are we.

Bush’s original energy plan, derided by the Democrats and so-called progressives as a wet-kiss to Big Oil, was in fact a visionary plan. At the time, Reid joked that GOP now stood for “Gas, Oil and Plutonium.” Funny, we don’t hear anyone laughing now.

Such puerile shenanigans, as we’ve said before, endanger our security and weaken our standard of living.

Angry? You should be. Call your political representatives and tell them you want more energy, not less. If they won’t do it, tell them you’ll vote for someone who will.

Then maybe you’ll really get change you can believe in
Well now Chi, if the Democrats listened, we wouldn’t be in this crisis now would we?
You Liberals are retarded. I give you facts, you give me rants.

Do You Want A Leader Of Our Country That Lies Again? ?

Clinton said he would LOWER TAXES when he ran for office, after ONE month in office he announced he was RAISING TAXES! Taxes were 39% with CLINTON! Bush Lowered Middle Class Taxes!
Obama lies all the time/ panders says what people want to hear depending on WHERE he is . Obama lied during the debate! He did sign to raise taxes on 42k up FOUR TIMES! In all Obama voted 94 times to raise taxes in the senate. Obama says one day he supports drilling- the next he don’t. Says he supports Nuclear one day the next he don’t. Biden made up 10 bills etc. that McCain signed didnt sign last night- ALL LIES!
Do you guys really want MORE LIES in our GOV’T?
Do you guys really think Obama / Biden can be trusted?
Obama / Biden are HUGE SPENDERS! EARMARK CRAZIES! Biden spent 600,000 ON a SPRINKLER SYSTEM for a Apartment complex – WE PAID FOR THAT!!!!! Obama has numerous crazy earmarks over 900 million dollars worth!
McCain NEVER USED EARMARKS! We will save TRILLIONS when he VETO’s earmarks!
McCain is PRO- EVERYTHING NOW(still working on anwar though) ! To keep us away from foreign energy reliance!
We NEED A GOOD CHANGE!

DRILL BABY DRILL!

If GW would have spent the tax $ on getting America off oil that he spent in Iraq,would he be a “hero” now?

If America just stopped spending $ on foreign oil the terrorists would have been defeated without killing 4000+ American Troops,almost a million Iraqis and crippling millions more.
Had bush pumped all that $$$ into research and developmen,much like JFK`s space race, Not only would we be the world leader in green energy manufacturing, we would have had an economic boom not seen since the end of W.W.2 !
GW could have gone down in history as the president who saved the planet from global warming. Instead he gave billions of our tax $s to the billionaire oil co.s who are calling for more Drilling !?!?

CARBON TRADING & PLANT FOREST VS. PHILIPPINE TECHNOLOGY?

Carbon trading has no moral worth of an action to favor people but rather it favors the human motives of fools who created this nonsense. It actually saves energy expense similar to posterity drive at the expense of any nation’s economy (production, distribution, consumption). Earth hour follows the same maxim which motive is wrong motive. How much can the world save in the hope of complying with carbon emission reduction, billions or trillions of metric tons of CO2 a year? This cannot be a general rule and should not a universal law. It is contrary to the law of nature. As the author Winston Kayanan has pointed out, the Philippine technology can siphon and absorb CO2 and, in turn, release O2. That is what our science in biology has taught us and hence, it has been a nature’s law.

This should be the thrust of the scientific community and the moral view of our world leaders & rulers. But what happened. The world opened itself to deceit or deception by UN. Like Australia which made a sudden turn, the new administration is very proud of their carbon trading performance. This however is not a moral act because they only performed it because of fears of being censured by people & coerced by other countries and hence, it was only their volition. It will only be moral if they have obligation to do it (like a matter of life & death situation) and are duty bound to perform it, of course, with consideration of all pros & cons. Their flooding, heat wave & forest fires are not reasons of defense for moral action in subscribing & pledging to Kyoto Protocol but their rejection & refusal to be informed & offered of the Philippine technology was imprudent and non-moral one, i.e., not in accord with duty or respect for duty.

In turn, UNFCCC encouraged the world to a plant forest scheme. This is good, very good. But do you think will it succeed when the world is experiencing floods, forest fires & wild fires? People (mostly environmentalists) don’t even know that trees expel CO2 too and can be in the same volume as that of O2 released in a point in time of the day. Moreover, trees are very sensitive to unfavorable conditions. They are affected by factors of light, temperature, water availability, CO2 concentration & nutrition. They tend to decline under extreme environment, enabling the stomata to close, considerably affecting the growth of trees. As the trees suffer further heat, stress to injury and then to death would set in by droughts & forest fires. Plant forest might & could fail. At this point, nobody has found or discovered something wrong the way things are occurring & done.

The Philippine technology was offered but the world did not take cognizance of it. Almost all people & governments think that they know more. It never occurred in their mind that it can siphon & absorb CO2 in quadrillions of metric tons per hectare a day. That is a day, continuing on a daily basis in quadrillions. It is very natural, guaranteed because it follows life in unison with nature. Its O2 regeneration is very essential to the curing of the environment which is one of the technology’s main objectives, overshadowing UN’s carbon emission reduction including carbon trading & plant forest scheme. This would mean that scientific community has already forgotten all about photosynthesis (biology), photosynthetic bacteria & thermopiles, etc.

Having learned the functions of Philippine technology little by little in this yahoo’s question & answer portion, do you now understand why the author is saying that the world has been deceived, the greatest deception of all times?

What do you think will be the outcome of this latest news release?

Iran and Venezuela plan anti-U.S. fund
By NATALIE OBIKO PEARSON, Associated Press Writer Sat Jan 13, 11:41 PM ET
CARACAS, Venezuela – Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez and Iran’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad fiery anti-American leaders whose moves to extend their influence have alarmed Washington said Saturday they would help finance investment projects in other countries seeking to thwart U.S. domination.
The two countries had previously revealed plans for a joint $2 billion fund to finance investments in Venezuela and Iran, but the leaders said Saturday the money would also be used for projects in friendly countries throughout the developing world.
“It will permit us to underpin investments … above all in those countries whose governments are making efforts to liberate themselves from the (U.S.) imperialist yoke,” Chavez said.
“This fund, my brother,” the Venezuelan president said, referring affectionately to Ahmadinejad, “will become a mechanism for liberation.”
“Death to U.S. imperialism!” Chavez said.
Ahmadinejad, who is starting a tour of left-leaning countries in the region, called it a “very important” decision that would help promote “joint cooperation in third countries,” especially in Latin America and Africa.
It was not clear if the leaders were referring to investment in infrastructure, social and energy projects — areas that the two countries have focused on until now — or other types of financing.
Iran and Venezuela are members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, and Chavez said Saturday that they had agreed to back a further oil production cut in the cartel to stem a recent fall in crude prices.
“We know today there is too much crude in the market,” Chavez said. “We have agreed to join our forces within OPEC … to support a production cut and save the price of oil.”
OPEC reduced output by 1.2 million barrels a day in November, then announced an additional cut of 500,000 barrels a day, due to begin on Feb. 1. Dow Jones Newswires reported Friday that OPEC is discussing holding an emergency meeting later this month to reduce output by another 500,000 barrels a day. Venezuela and Iran have been leading price hawks within OPEC.
Ahmadinejad’s visit Saturday — his second to Venezuela in less than four months — comes as he seeks to break international isolation over his country’s nuclear program and possibly line up new allies in Latin America. He is also expected to visit Nicaragua and Ecuador, which both recently elected leftist governments.
Chavez and Ahmadinejad have been increasingly united by their deep-seated antagonism toward the Bush administration. Chavez has become a leading defender of Iran’s nuclear ambitions, accusing the Washington of using the issue as a pretext to attack Tehran.
Ahmadinejad, meanwhile, has called Chavez “the champion of the struggle against imperialism.”
U.S. officials have accused Chavez — a close ally of Cuban leader
Fidel Castro — of authoritarian tendencies, and National Intelligence Director John Negroponte said recently in an annual review of global threats that Venezuela’s democracy was at risk.
The U.S. also believes Iran is seeking to use its nuclear program to develop an atomic bomb. Tehran says its program is peaceful and geared toward the production of energy.
The increasingly close relationship between Chavez and Ahmadinejad has alarmed some Chavez critics, who accuse him of pursuing an alliance that does not serve Venezuela’s interests and jeopardizes its ties with the United States, the country’s top oil buyer. Venezuela is among the top five suppliers of crude to the U.S. market.
In a speech earlier Saturday, Chavez called for the U.S. government to accept “the new realities of Latin America,” as he brushed aside restrictions that limit presidents to two consecutive terms. He vowed to stay in office beyond 2013, when his term expires, saying he would revise the constitution to get rid of presidential term limits.
But Chavez also said in his state of the nation address to government officials and legislators that he had personally expressed hope to a high-ranking U.S. official for better relations between their two countries.
Chavez said he spoke with Thomas Shannon, head of the U.S. State Department’s Western Hemisphere affairs bureau, on the sidelines of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega’s inauguration earlier this week.
“We shook hands and I told him: ‘I hope that everything improves,’” Chavez said. “I’m not anyone’s enemy.”
Chavez prompted a crash in Venezuelan share prices this past week when he announced he would seek special powers from the legislature to push through “revolutionary” reforms, including a string of nationalizations and unspecified changes to business laws and the commerce code.
He also announced plans for the state to take control of the country’s largest telecommunications company, its electricity and natural gas sectors and four heavy crude upgrading projects now controlled by some of the world’s top oil companies.
He said Saturday, however, that private companies would be allowed to own minority stakes in the lucrative Orinoco River basin oil projects.
The government has already taken majority ownership of all other oil-producing operations in the country through joint ventures controlled by the state oil company. Most companies have shown a willingness to continue investing despite the tightening terms, which have also included tax and royalty increases.

Fangirl Kakashi Story part2 (read part one in my profile under questions)?

After Kakashi had left and you were alone in the dark, you shrugged and kept walking into the cold night. Suddenly a tingling sensation came upon you, your vision had blurred, and you felt your stomach burning, as if you were stabbed with the poisonous kunaii. You tried to fight back, trying to see your attacker. Then your legs buckled. You slowly fell, energy draining. You think to yourself, “This is pitiful, I am the smartest, and youngest assistant leader to Gaii, I am a master in the art of fans, and I get attacked by someone I don’t even know…Someone help…please…” What you thought was your last minutes of life, when you were dropped unto the ground. Tears streamed down your face, for you thought, “I finally found someone I love…And I’m dieing.” Then you felt a rush of wind against your face, and heard yelling. Who was there? Then you passed out as you felt gentle hands pick you up and say, “Tsuki…” It was definately Kakashi. He had saved you.
Days later, you awoke in a strange home, quite small. Only for one person probably. You were lying in a bed, and looked over to a chair where the grey spiky haired Kakashi lay with his arms crossed, his book underneath his arm. He was snoring quite loudly. You chuckled, and he awoke astonished, looked around and saw you sitting up. “Tsuki, I heard you scream so I—-” Kakashi started.
Then you interuppted, “Why did you save me?” You blushed again, and thought (WHY DO I HAVE TO BE SO SHY!”
Kakashi blinked and stared at you for a few minutes and said, “You are a fellow leader of the young ninjas of konoha. It is my duty to protect you.”
You replied, “Oh…” quite disappointed that he didn’t say he loved you.
You glanced away and looked at the window. When you tried to get up, and started walking. After a few wobbly steps, your knife wound started to bleed, and you started to grow dizzy. As you felt yourself falling, Kakashi’s gentle hands caught you and said in a whisper, “Hey now. Careful, you’re not better yet.” You had your eyes closed, glad that he was just there, holding you close. And when he thought you were out cold, he tucked you back into bed and said. “Tsuki I didn’t save you because you are a leader…I saved you because I love you.”
He walked away, of course reading his dumb paradise book again, sat down in the same chair, and sipped tea.
You grinned to yourself as you dozed off.

This is part 1

What is B. Hussein Obama’s plan on drilling and becoming energy independent besides inflating our tires??

B. Hussein Obama remains opposed to new offshore drilling (although he now says he would accept a highly restricted version as part of a comprehensive package). Just last week, he claimed that if only Americans would inflate their tires properly and get regular tune-ups, “we could save all the oil that they’re talking about getting off drilling.”

This is bizarre. By any reasonable calculation of annual tire-inflation and tune-up savings, the Outer Continental Shelf holds nearly a hundred times as much oil. As for oil shale, also under federal moratorium, after a thousand years of driving with Obama-inflated tires and Obama-tuned engines, we would still have saved only one-fifth the oil shale available in the United States.

One can only imagine the astonishment and glee with which Russia’s leaders are observing Nancy Pelosi’s nearly hysterical determination to prevent the United States from developing its own oil resources, and the fecklessness of Democratic Presidential nominee B. Hussein Obama in the face of their aggression against an American ally.

I followed the Prophet’s advice and checked my tire pressure.

I know it sounds crazy, but I immediately felt better after I did it.

Now I really don’t mind paying 4 dollars a gallon because Democrats have blocked every attempt at increasing domestic oil production. Thank you Obama. To think that a tire gauge could bring me such happiness.

One can only wonder what other crises will be solved thanks to his brilliant solutions.

Darn, I’m out of Koolaid. Will have to borrow some from an Obamist…they never run out.

Obama claims to have values right out of the Kansas heartland. That might be true but for the fact that people from the heartland tend not to associate with home grown terrorists, radical preachers who hate America, and con-men. Kansas heartland values don’t include being ashamed of this country or wanting to become a “citizen of the world” (what does that even mean, anyway?). Heartland values don’t include bashing your country while abroad or choosing to work out instead of visiting soldiers who are ill. Heartland values don’t include socialism. They do include a bit of humility, something which Obama lacks.

John McCain is the American President, Americans have been waiting for. I’m not sure “what” Obama is (does anyone honestly know?) but he ain’t American. Maybe he was born here, but the buck stops there. His penchant for radicals and racism, plants him squarely in the district he has come from, in Chicago Illinois, Bobby Rush, Farrakhan, Ayers, Rev Wright….. Racial Profiling and Afrocentric Legislation….

John McCain is a true “Red Blooded American” and he would die before he would listen to such “lesser men” run down and denigrate this Great Country. But Barack Hussein Obama, loved and “sought out” their company…. It seemed as long as “Hating American” was the common thread that brought, and held, this group together… They had Barack Hussein Obama’s ear, (and) he lionized them in his books and his legislation.

Does anyone actually think that John McCain would have tolerated these radical America hating bosom buddies of Obama’s, whose thoughts and actions I’m sure would remind him of his days in the Hanoi Hilton…. Would any person who truly loves this country listen to this (trashing of her) for years, all the while drafting and crafting legislation to support their radical American hating views with tax payers money….

I say nay, nay to Barack Hussein Obama, “who” ever he is, “what” ever he is and “where” ever he is from…. Radical, Muslim, Foreigner…. (Nay)

God Bless America

Is climate change a real problem?

So world leaders are meeting tomorrow to discuss the climate change situation (again). I’m all for saving energy and recycling etc, I have energy saving bulbs and switch EVERYTHING off at the mains electric point.
Scientists say sea levels are rising but here is my theory. The land is sinking/eroding away rather than the sea rising. Take a pint of glass, fill it with ice and water to the brim. The glass represents Earth, the ice represents the melting polar ice caps and the water represents the oceans. Now let the ice melt. Does the water spill over the edge of the glass or does it remain at the same level. It stays the same cos it has the same volume/density or whatever the technical term is. Surely the same situation would apply to the Earth.

Also climate change is a natural process. We weren’t responsible for the last ice age. That was a natural occurrence.

My questions are
Do you agree with my ice/water level theory?
Are we fighting a losing battle when trying to stop climate change?

Your thoughts and opinions please.
