The high cost of delegates

Don Surber has calculated that each delegate cost Obama $101,249. One has to wonder if McIntyre’s vote was worth the cost? But I bet Obama will help McIntyre raise that much and more, now that Mike is “on the bus” for Denver.

In World War II the people of the USA rallied to their country’s call with a patriotic effort to relieve pressure on the food production processes needed to feed our troops by growing food in their own backyards.
This war, which involves energy, should be producing a new “Victory Garden”. We should be developing energy sources […]

A message to the infidels

Received this in an e-mail - no attribution to any author and I think I’ve seen it before - but I’ll pass it along - there is truth in it:
God gave this country all the resources we need and we would be fine, if we weren’t too stupid to harvest them.
The OPEC minister will look […]

Yesterday I drove through Kansas and got a chance to see close up the comparison between traditional energy production and alternative energy production.
Visually the new has a much greater impact - the towers looked to be around 100 feet tall and the blades probably 60 feet. The 100 or so visible from I-70 extend from […]

Farm bill - bad deal for taxpayers and consumers

From the White House:
This Farm Bill Asks American Taxpayers To Support Still Higher Subsidies During A Time Of Record Farm Income
The United States’ booming farm economy makes it impossible to justify further increasing subsidy rates and establishing additional subsidies for some crops. With rising food prices and farm income at an […]

I mean like really, if it weren’t for the like gravity pulling all that hair outward her skull would like really collapse, sort of like a plastic watter bottle that Bill Nye Science guy made like suck in like all of a sudden like when he poured like boiling water in it and then […]

President has right ideas on energy!

Hillary wants to play with taxes this summer to give the illusion of “doing something” about gas prices. She would increase taxes on the oil companies to “offset” the loss to the treasury (begs the question - how will prices go down if the taxes on producers go up?). McCain also wants to suspend collection […]

Biofuel vs Food - Stop putting Corn in my Gas

I’ve been ranting for a long while (since before I started blogging) that turning corn into a “fuel” was bad policy and stupid economically (except for “Big Corn”).
Turns out other people have finally come to the same conclusion.
At a weekend conference in Washington, finance ministers and central bankers of seven leading industrial nations called for […]

I make a joke - somebody takes it serious! Take two!

Last August I posted a piece about a company wanting to do “chemical” cremations. Sounded like a pretty disgusting process but also sounded like something the Eco Left would try to ban - along with conventional cremation. You see - cremation, either kind - releases greenhouse gasses and other pollutants into the atmosphere while burial […]

Politics driving up the price of oil

Posted on April 3, 2008 - Filed Under Reid, Pelosi, economic recession, Democrats, McIntyre, Hillary, Global Warming, Legislators, National Politics | Leave a Comment

Congress has just been told the truth about the price of oil - but they probably did not really understand it. In testimony to a Senate committee:
geopolitical tensions in big oil producing countries “provide the best explanation for crude oil price increases,” Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chief Economist Jeffrey Harris told a […]
