I was referring to Democrats in general (including BHO). Here's what "Junk Science" has to say about it:

Here’s how the “Ethanol Shuffle” works according to Geoff Cooper at the Renewable Fuels Association:

… California imports sugarcane ethanol from Brazil rather than corn ethanol from Nebraska or Kansas; and in turn, corn ethanol from the Midwest travels to Houston or Galveston via rail, then is shipped to Brazil via tanker to “backfill” the volumes they sent to the U.S. Picture the irony of a tanker full of U.S. corn ethanol bound for Brazil passing a tanker full of cane ethanol bound for Los Angeles or Miami along a Caribbean shipping route. Remember, this is all being done in the name of reducing GHG emissions. But what are the real GHG implications of the shuffle? And what are the economic impacts?…

Thanks for the information.

Legislators at times will make claims they did or did not vote for a piece of legislation because of amendments that may have been attached to a bill.

Of course during the session just before they come up for reelection the smoke is so thick it is extra hard to tell why they voted the way they did. It is CYA time for them.

Again thanks for the information and the link.
