Way to go Gore! Cap n Trade Pt.1Posted Sunday, June 28, 2009, at 11:35 AM
Way to go Gore! You have started the wildfire and your stupidity is emptying our pockets! Due to your exhaustive effort to spread fear and outright unfounded lies, our income will be depleted with inflated energy costs. (But hey, at least it's not a tax increase, right? That was dripping sarcasm.) Why do I connect Gore with the energy bill called Cap and Trade? Global warming is the shaky foundation built on shifting beach-sand that has started the need for an energy tax. Wake up, folks and understand this...According to credible scientists and anyone with the common sense God gave them, the Earth has been through numerous ice ages and between each ice age there was a warming period. It is a cycle. While it is true that we humans can help slow down this process and be more responsible, mere mortals will not alter the natural order of things! However, mere mortals have always had fantasies of fear to spread in order to make a buck. If you can convince the public that a hole in the ground will protect you from dying in a nuclear attack, then you could make a pretty penny off the neighbors who will pay for a hole in their backyard, complete with 3 rooms, a state of the art kitchen and food storage, a surround sound system with satellite TV and a hot-tub! During the 1970's, many of the same 'experts' that were claiming that we were headed into another ice age, are now warning of global warming. In the 1970's Senator Gaylord Nelson said, "The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age." If the senator was correct we would, at this very moment be in the mist of an ice age. And I'm sure that Obama could sell you a load of ice cubes too. There is no credible scientific evidence that carbon dioxide from humans is causing global warming. New Zealand's Climate Science Coalition chair Bryan Leyland said, "... to my knowledge, carbon trading is the only commodity trading where it is impossible to establish with reasonable accuracy how much is being bought and sold, where the commodity that is traded is invisible and can perform no useful purpose for the purchaser, and where both parties benefit if the quantities traded have been exaggerated. ... It is, therefore, an open invitation to fraud and that is exactly what is happening all over the world." With that in mind, why is Obama pushing this cap n trade? My thought is that he needs to rush everything through while his approval ratings are still high. He knows that once everyone wises up, he won't be able to do anything. Or perhaps He knows that once government obtains absolute control over our energy costs, it will give them unprecedented power over the people. Every aspect of your life will be controlled directly or indirectly by politicians, ie. The supreme ruler, Herr Obama! What is Cap and Trade? Tune in to my next blog for the answer.

I've lived in Mtn Home for over 20 years. I love my city and my country. Since I am a writer, my decision to blog here seemed appropriate. I enjoy acting so I've been blessed with the opportunity to work on some independent films and with Prairie Dog Productions and Bogus Creek Ranch. I hope that something I have to write about has some value for others or just amuses someone.
Hot topics Mayfield? Here's my thought.(5 ~ 10:39 AM, Aug 18)

It is hard to believe that this country would fall for a scam by the original village idiot, Al Gore. I guess it shouldn't be too surprising they elected a president who was nothing more than a street hustler from Chicago. How's that hope and changey thing working for you? The author of this piece is dead on right, it's about having control over our lives, goodbye freedom.
WOW!!...............yet ANOTHER one who SEES! Excellent comment, and just like the author.........right on the money.
Hi Kim and all,
I have to agree the cap and trade scheme is a tax hike that breaks a promise, and is a bad idea. Cap & trade is just a money making scheme for paper pushers to me. It is used in coal's mercury cap & trade to allow old plants avoid updates and keep spewing mercury, while million$$ of bucks are made trading, passing on the bill to the citizens.
Obama's claim to fame to be different, is not taking money from business PAC's, only citizens. But the many top exec's of Illinois based nuclear and coal companies funnel him tons of money, each with maximum quarterly "citizen" payments for years, totaling enough to be the same old "business as usual" in return fora politicians salesmanship.
I favor the high tech CO2 removal that can turn CO2 into fresh O2, commonly called trees and plants. But here is an INL CO2 scheme I , at least temporarily, stopped in 2005. Our delegation loves it, and Obama is touting CO2 sequestration again, so it may come back. They basically want to capture coal's CO2 and inject it a half mile underground in Idaho's basalt rock! The ultimate sweep it under the rug trick! They had hoped it would change the acidity of the water to orange juice acidity, allowing the CO2 to form a chalk amd bind to basalt. Yah, I'm sure they can really test how well that works or what escapes slowly. See the INL map of injection potential includes Elmore it appears, and most of southern Idaho.
I am pretty convinced mankind's pollution is doing damage, and coal's mercury poisoning of fish is true. I am not sure Obama and Gore are in on a New World Order conspiracy, but I am not a blind faith fan ofeither, and liked Ron Paul the most of the Prez candidates for da record. Ron likes nuke power, but I haven't had a chance to go over the details with him :-) Just like his libertarian bend and he seemed to tell the truth , more than most...Peter
From http://www.inl.gov/featurestories/2005-1...
The quote on 20 years worth of ALL coal CO2 can be injected!
"Preliminary calculations by the group show this basalt could store more than 100 billion tons of carbon dioxide-as much as all the coal-burning power plants in the United States produce in 20 years"
The quote on hoping to change the acidity of the water.
"Based on their analyses, the researchers expect the carbon dioxide to dissolve over the next few months into the water "like in a can of soda," he says. This mixture will produce a weak acid, roughly the acidity of orange juice. Minerals in the basalt will react with the acid to produce calcium carbonate (limestone, found in seashells), magnesium carbonate (a chalky substance, used by gymnasts and weightlifters to improve their grip) and other solid carbonates."
"However, mere mortals have always had fantasies of fear to spread"
This phrase characterizes most people. Everyone wants to be the one who saves the world from eminent demise and be the hero.
I just want the illegals and the liberals out of here.
Well your type apparently did not have things right in the past... All things need balance.
Nothing will ever be "balanced" until we start getting rid of the UN-baanced."
And to be fair, there are a number of Republicans that need to be booted out as well.
Ya want balance, common sense and reality-decision-making?..............fill the White House and Congress with Independents!
I came very close last year to not voting at all................for the first time in my life.
I'm telling you, it is time to PURGE the system, and go through D.C. with a giant "Roro-Rooter."
"Cheno and radiation" might be a feel-good fix, but unless you cut out the tumor, the problem will always be there, ready to "rock 'n' roll."
