Obama isn't sinister. He's just a liberal. He was born in the United States. We own him. He is our garden variety liberal. He isn't a great President, but we haven't had one of those in a long time.

If there is something about him that pisses me off, it's his interference with our fuel sources, the cronyism in the green power industry... the $250,000 every Chevy Volt cost the taxpayer so far.

Most of the stuff didn't make anything greener, and didn't make any power. I've had employees at Solar World down the street here that they thought it was bullshit (and I quote) that wouldn't exist w/o US and German government funding. They don't think they are making a viable product. They expect to lose their jobs as soon as the public wakes up to the fact that they don't know how to make a truly workable, cost effective solar panel.

Before we start tearing down the coal, natural gas and oil industries, we better have that other green energy source. We don't. Not even close.

This is Obama's big problem. Green that escapes reason. Should we be investigating green power... absolutely.... Should we implement green power without having any idea how to make it????

I think we should have the "Manhattan Project" for green power but we shouldn't deploy anything without it working. First we figure out how to make green power, THEN we deploy it. Now we're deploying things we know don't work and aren't remotely cost effective.

We should do the research. When we figure out something that works, then...... we deploy it... then we start cutting into oil, gas and coal.

Obama has got the cart before the horse.

If you see someone driving a Volt remind them to thank you for paying your taxes. They only paid about 20% of what it cost. We paid the rest.

Yay! We can make a green car that costs a quarter million that we can sell for $48,000!

Hell, if you're a yuppie, green, tree hugger that can afford 50 grand and doesn't mind driving a geo with a piano in the back, we'll just gift you $200,000 for being such a yuppie nut bar.

If you want a Volt.... You buy it! That'll be a quarter million....if Chevy foregoes any profit..... Are you still sold?
