{OT:} We can't fix the fossil fuel problem

We won't fix the fossil fuel problem until we absolutely have to.  I'm
not sure we can.  Our entire economy depends completely on the
internal combustion engine.  It won't be easy when we have almost no
mass transit system and the railroad infrastructure is crumbling.

Oh wait, the rightwingnut solution: blame somebody.  That will surely
fix the problem.

You are still part of the problem because you can't work on
solutions.  You just don't have the intelligence to be a problem
solver.  You are just a toothless sot of a consumer.

The solution is to get rid of all of you liberals.

At least get you out of control of Congress.

You are the problem....so the solution is obvious.

Problem solved.

I'll second that.  The environmental left wingnuts in Congress have stopped
any new development since Prudhoe Bay in the 1970's.  They were screaming
about the Alaska Pipeline and tried to stop that.  Now in a turnabout,
GreenPussy is talking about nuclear energy, which they have been trying to
shut down since Three Mile Island and before.

Florida Power and Light is getting ready to construct two New Clear
plants and Progress Energy is looking at two more.

When fusion becomes feasible, we should go all fusion in the US.  If
it is good enough for the sun, it should be good enough for us.

Rather than get wrapped around the axle about where to drill for more
oil, do away with the internal combustion engine.  Fossil fuels,
especially crude oil, is finite.  What have we got, 5 years, 10
years?  I get the feeling that the Middle East countries know this and
are going to lower production to extend income from oil sales into the
future.  I don't blame them for not caring about the USA first instead
of their own countries first.

You rightwingtards are one idea people, one trick ponies.

Right...do away with the engine and do what, start using the horse and buggy
again? It would be nice to be able to stop using oil, but until we can, we
cant stop using what is ours. Only an idiot like you would suggest we stop
using oil without actually having a substitute for it.

See?  You can only handle two choices: 1) The status quo; 2) an absurd
alternative.

The rightwingtards, conservatives, cannot solve this problem.  You are
too plodding, stupid, dull-witted.  Only an idiot keeps going down the

And it's because of retards like you that we have $4 a gallon gas. There is
no reasoning with people like you. I would almost go as far as saying you
are as much in bed with foreign oil as Bush's family is. Maybe that's why
you don't want us drilling our own oil while at the same time searching for
a viable substitute for oil.

That's it, way to show your stupidity. Too bad for you, history shows how
traitorous your party has been. Now you sound like a 12 year old instead of
actually addressing the fact the democrats have consistently stopped us from
drilling our own oil for the last 30 years.

I'm waiting for someone to get impatient with 4 dollar gas.  Right now the
tinder is dry, the wood is stacked, all it's waiting for is a spark.

There won't be a revolt over gas prices unless they suddently and
noticably affect employment or the standard of living or exceed the
cost of a Starbucks coffee.  Also $4 is only slightly higher than the
all-time price, after factoring inflation, and gas mileage is better
now than in the early 1980s.

I reiterate: what has a Democrat-led Congress done in two years but demand
'apologies' from other countries?

Not much, from what I have seen.

More like a few hundred years' worth, especially because of all the
coal, shale oil, and tar sands.

Like it or not, in 50 years, most of the world's energy will still
come from hydrocarbons, unless their CO2 emissions limit their use.

They used to keep prices low because they had to -- the US could
simply greatly increase output whenever the Arabs got out of line.
But that power is gone, unless prices stay high long enough to make
alternative sources of hydrocarbons get into the mainstream in huge
volume or if  the US gets very, very serious about conservation and
alternative energy.  The Saudis were afraid of such measures even as
late as the 1990s.

The only thing we can do right now, short of overthrowing the Saudi
royal family, is conserve, and this doesn't necessarily mean slowing
down the economy.

Where I live the people that cry the most about 'dependance on oil' vote
down every planned solution. NIMBYs, or, more to the point, COVEs:
Citizens Opposed to Virtually Everything.

Need I say 99.9% of them are true Left-Wing Liberals?

When COVEs vote these things down, I'm sure you, being an excellent citizen,
write to your elected barnacles and tell them your opinion. When you write
to them, are the letters handwritten, or do you type them on the same
computer you use for posting to newsgroups?

I'm in the Silent Majority.

The truth is, you can't beat these k00ks down, the primary reason being
the Democrat state and federal reps depend on their votes to get re-
elected. They know which side their bread is buttered on and stick up for
the k00ks.

Consequently we have no real jobs (have to save the land for farmers!),
no real shopping centers (Wal*Mart is an Evil Corporation!), no real
economy, not much of anything, really.

Estimates are, using our *own* oil, 65 years.

We had THRITY years since the last 'crisis' and *EVERYBODY* sat on their
hands, never mind, 'my' party or 'your' party.

The Democrats are billing themselves as the party of "change", they have
the power now, and what have they done of note in the past two years?
Issued ultimatums for the 'apologies' from Japan and Turkey?

The whole friggin' lot is as useless as tits on a bull.

Just think what the Iraq war funding could have bought in R&D.  Over
$800 Billion dollars - The government could put a hydrogen generator
on every corner so we could go to hydrogen fuel cell cars.

But NOOOOOOO, that is wasting money; that would be a government give-
away; that could be considered an entitlement program.

Logging into this news group is like walking into a desert and finding
about 8 people just shouting 5 or 6 random phrases at the sky, over
and over.

Well if there weren't a bunch of liberals trying to stop people from solving
the problem it would be a lot easier. Sadly, many of them don't seem to like
America very much.
