Vice President Biden is slated to deliver the keynote address at a Las Vegas energy summit hosted by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) later this month.

The fourth annual National Clean Energy Summit will also feature remarks from Center for American Progress President John Podesta, Energy Secretary Steven Chu, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus and California Gov. Jerry Brown (D), among others.

“The Obama administration has proven time and again it understands the importance of building a competitive 21st-century economy through clean energy investments and policies that are focused on putting people back to work, reducing costs for consumers and eliminating our nation’s dependence on oil and unsustainable energy sources,” Reid said in a statement touting Bden’s decision to speak at the Aug. 30 event.

The summit is sponsored by Reid, the Center for American Progress, the Clean Energy Project, MGM Resorts International and the University of Nevada-Las Vegas.

If you attend, be sure to carry a box of Kleenex, because you will laugh so hard you will need them for eyes and nose.

Biden--a clown and a maroon.

The only thing he knows about energy policy is that Amtrak
named a bar car after him!

I would love it if we could get a bunch of people to demonstrate at their talk and chant Drill Here, Drill Now! Tjese communists want to destroy the US.

Just consider the significance of any group in that the
best they can do is have Joe Biden as their keynote speaker.

Let me guess.

He wants energy prices to "necessarily skyrocket" to impoverish and starve the peasants so he and his ruling-class swells can live in the pristine Walden paradise that is their birthright.

Why do I believe this energy Conference will be one-sided.

Holy mackerel. This really is a Communist Clown Congress.

Joe Biden, John Podesta, Steven Chu, Ray Mabus, and Jerry Brown (D), “among others.”

I would imagine that those “others” are all chips off the same block.

And where’s Al Gore?

National Clean Energy Summit

Not one bit about solving energy problems or building profitable businesses.

100% about using the government to suck money from the unwilling masses under the threat of imprisonment for non-compliance.

Green fascists.

I just got the highlights of this Energy Summit:

>How to ensure that half of Americans are riding bikes to work by 2025

>Horse and Buggy - Going forward by going backward

>Windmills for the family farmer - What the Dutch never told us

>How gun ownership is causing the price of oil to rise

>Religion and the Middle East - The case against Christianity in OPEC

I think there is more...
