Sometime in the not to distant future the wealthy liberals will look back at these days as being some of the best in their lives.

“Bring itup for a veto over-ride, even if it fails. Let’s get the America-haters on both sides on record.”

Couldn’t agree with you more!!

An electric car owner can have an electric outlet in his garage or yard to plug in his electric car.

I guess city dwellers will be SOL because the vast majority don't have garages or a yard.

“...well, there goes floppy ears....”

He’s not the problem.

Those who voted him into office are the on-going problem; the brilliant, intellectual, Progressive geniuses who think your religious faith is stupid, who consider your Constitution to be dumb, who think that “the rich” should pay their “fair share”, who think that Che Guevara was a great hero, and who have found a messiah in the White House while thy think the Messiah of the founding fathers was an illusion and a delusion.

IMHO

Guess he wants Canadian oil transported by truck, which burns oil to move the oil in a tanker truck or freight train. Does that make much sense?

I’m with you! We really need to clean house . Too many people don’t realize what Obama and the government are doing to the country. Revolution may be necessary if the republicans are just gonna stand there and do nothing.

The American people killed this project with their presidential votes even if they are too dumb to understand that.
