No Plan, No Leadership!

“LBJ ‘68”.
I’ve been saying that for a couple months. By logic I don’t see how a person can in good conscience run again with this going on. But he sure doesn’t sound like someone who is leaning towards not running. It was March of ‘68 when LBJ announced his intentions. Eight months before the election. If B.O. announces that now, Hillary would time to step in. Thats no solution. That would be the same or worse. The two are the same. We can only hope B.O, (and I do mean B.O.), runs out of steam in March of ‘12.

Manchin won’t do that. He’s a DINO.
The coal will go overseas just like the huge natural gas surplus that’s just getting bigger with the shale drilling.
UMW’s Trumka is, or at least was, in O’s pocket. Of course he is a communist lawyer, not a miner.
Our sitting on their BFA lawmakers need to stop grumbling and start closing down out of control federal agencies like the EPA. Their office can't exist if they are not funded. Congress can and eventually must put an end to EPA's overreach. First step should be not paying the agencies electric bill to show them what the nations power grid will be like under the EPA's insane meddling.
So will the costs of manufacturing. That means more jobs heading overseas. There’s a relatively simple way to neuter the EPA. Currently the EPA does not need to do a cost benefit analysis of the effects of new regulations. By requiring that along with including the effects on jobs and the effects of increased pollution in foreign countries with little or no environmental regulations, the EPA would be looking at some shocking numbers.
An example would be battery recycling that was forced out of this country to other countries with no child labor laws. What was the impact of that?
For those of you that live in voting districts represented by Republicans, get on the phone and pitch the cost benefit analysis requirement. I’m calling on Monday.
He said during his campaign “under my plan energy prices would necessarily increase”.
His supporters cheered.

Great idea. I was working at a gravel pit today that is trying to reopen. Most of the others around have been closed down due to evironmental permits, noise, etc. This one is trying to mitigate the noise effects on nearby neighbors. Of course the neighbors moved in after the pit had already been in operation for 20 years!
But all of the added costs really hinder the development of our resources. I just read where Germany got out of the Depression by exploiting natural resources. Granted, they were resources from the countries they invaded. But we need to invade our own country and smash through the barriers of evironmental regulations and wilderness designations.
Not to rape the land, but to use the resources it has in a reasonable and conservationist manner. And as one who loves the outdoors and the natural environment, I can guarantee that even if half of our regulations were dismantled we would still be far better stewards of the land than the Chinese, Indonesians, etc. will ever be.
I was also wondering how much fuel and carbon is put out when the Chinese ship us boatloads of gravel and cement and trees and iron and..... to us? Doesn’t THAT bother the Greenies?
The Marxist pig will make sure "his" people are taken care of. 2012 will be the most critical in well over 150 years. I truly despise supporters of Obama. They are participating in the destruction of our Republic.
The MSM will find a way to convince a majority of idiot American's that it's the Tea Party's fault that rates are rising.
The could care less. They will just give lip service. The EPA needs to be disbanded. All employees of the EPA need to be fired, their assets seized. All buildings that housed the EPA need to be destroyed and the ground salted.
The EPA is filled with the most rabid of anti-Capitialist and anti-American TRAITORS. They do not deserve to be Americans.
Eastern coal mining states voted Obama.
Andrea Rossi will pick up these plants for pennies on the dollar and convert them to Ecat plants.

That $128 billion needed investment is what these conspiracy theorists conveniently ignore or purposely suppress.
We are not dealing with a president who has a conscience. He is a sociopath whose primary characteristic is being a human-like creature without a conscience (or the ability to feel any emotion).
Perry environmental stance would transform EPA ....>>>>>Perry "approaches the issues from a very libertarian bent," said Jim DiPeso , policy director of Republicans for Environmental Protection. "The EPA would be in for some significant budget reduction. There would be no new intiatives, no regulatory programs that would be initated. There'd be litigation from environmental groups that believe he's not enforcing the Clean Air Act and Water Act as robustly as the law provides."
"Any regulatory programs would be really throttled back," he said. "He has shown no interest in climate policy at all. He doesn't accept the science."
With the governor's blessing, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott is challenging at least six EPA greenhouse gas-related regulations. The state's underlying argument: The fundamental finding that greenhouse gases are a public health threat is scientifically flawed.
The federal government is pushing "hastily enacted, cascading regulations" on states and businesses, Abbott argued in a June brief filed on behalf of nine states in federal court.
Perry's approach to energy, DiPeso said, "would be to produce more," rather than discourage the development of energy projects, such as coal plants, that emit greenhouse gases associated with global warming.
"In terms of energy, (Perry) would pursue what many Republicans call the 'all of the above' strategy, with more energy development offshore and onshore," DiPeso said. <<<<<
Finding middle ground on EPA-Texas electric squabble [EPA doesn’t do “middle” ground] “Texas' grudge match with the Environmental Protection Agency is getting nastier and riskier, with the fallout threatening to reach the state's power grid. Want another reason to worry about the lights staying on? Or how about another hit to the economy? You've heard lots of political posturing about Texas' way of life being threatened by an overreaching federal government. This time, Gov. Rick Perry has a point. …………..
Don't be surprised if the attorney general jumps in after Perry slammed the rule for threatening Texas jobs and families and putting reliable, affordable electricity at risk. Late last week, 31 members of Congress from Texas, including eight Democrats, signed a letter to the White House asking for relief. The utility commission also filed objections with the EPA.
MONTANA: Legal gamesmanship threatens our energy future “Texas Gov. Rick Perry is able to boast about job growth under his watch, noting that over 265,000 jobs, or nearly 37 percent of the jobs created nationwide since the summer of 2009, have been created in the Lone Star state.
Recent headlines highlight two major resource development projects slogging through endless legal and regulatory challenges. Investment flees this kind of uncertainty, so Montanans interested in the future economic stability of this state should be wary of the signals we send…” --- [relates short history of 2 outrageous examples] --
“The common experience for Tongue River Railroad and Tonbridge Power is this: Even if you play by the rules, even if you follow the letter of the law, even if you engage with the public during a planning process, even if you get formal approval from the regulatory authorities, you are certain to face organized opposition whose sole intent is to frustrate project development to the point of financial starvation…...................”
CALIFORNIA: …..“Texas Gov. Rick Perry has become a folk hero for people like Stewart as he's marketed his state as a low-cost and business-friendly alternative to California, which is fertile job-hunting ground for Perry.
Texas has added 929,000 jobs since 2001, while California has lost approximately 635,000 manufacturing jobs in that same time, Stewart said.
Answering questions after his speech, Stewart told the story of Perry sending programmed cellphones to CEOs in California with a simple message: "If you're interested in growing your business, please call me. I'm here to help."
"They're doing something right down there," Stewart said of what he dubs the "Texas miracle." "Gov. Perry will go anywhere, any time, to try to recruit companies into Texas."
Perry has taken the state's regulatory process and managed it himself, Stewart said………
[CA Economic Development Corporation President Mark] Lascelles emphasized that it does no good to belabor California's regulatory environment.

What would happen IF.. Alaskas HUGE supply of coal was capitalized on mined and sent to CHINA...
PAY them off with an absolutely HUGE amount of coal mined in Alaska.. and shipped to China.. at a discount..
Alaska has SO MUCH coal, so much, that it dwarfs the supply in several eastern States.. maybe all of them..
Actually most of Alaska has coal seams a bit under the surface..
We can’t use it... BUT we could ship it all to China and India.. in huge barges..
Akaska has so much coal it could supply most of the world for several hundred YEARS... maybe a millennium..
