Drill baby drill... Ill bet they retire that line...

Have you seen the mess that is just 17 miles from the Louisiana Coast?


You wont hear Palin saying Drill baby drill again any time soon!

Yea---the mess is nasty---but as our economy drops by subsidizing ours and other nations green aspirations---you will again see the importance of the hydrocarbon.

Newflash for ya....our economy has been in the toilet at least twice in the last 30 years...and that was when "hydrocarbon" was king! The urban myth that going green will further ruin the economy is backed by the same quasi-reality that Wall St. used to justify it's shennanigans.

If you don't like oil and you don't like nuclear then what do you like?
 
Taichi and co will grab a talking point without thinking first. I know shock? Taichi I guess you sold your car, or is you comment just bs hot air like all the other anti oil whining.

What makes you think he's old enough to drive a car, let alone own one.

You're blowing a lot of smoke, Top....but I don't see any factual or logical counter to what I've referenced or stated. Let me know when you do.

Well, you can still have your oil and your coal, but you'll have to adhere to environmental standards, emmission controls, put more research into hybrids, utilize wind and solar where applicable, get into natural gas and geo-thermal, decent re-cycling. Once you start doing these things sans the bitching and blocking of oil industry that just doesn't want to change much in how they do business, then you wouldn't need nuclear.

:palm: You asked how I WOULD do it..... prove a theory without resources to conduct the actual experiment.....not possible. Best I can offer is the feasiblity of the proposed technology, and past examples of cost effective recycling, wind power, solar, etc. Then I could compare this to the cost of running a nuke plant, supplying the fuel, disposing of the waste. That'll take time, but you get the idea.

Use google. You can't be the first brain-dead lib who wanted to rid the world of clean, safe, and inexpensive nuclear power.

Do you have any idea how much area solar panels would take up to offset the 100 or so nukes that we have now? I suggest that you start with that. Educate yourself.

Ahhh, the little dope thinks he's got the high ground....but his first mistake was giving a "for instance" that was NOT one of my suggestions,

Had our intellectually stumped Southern clown actually paid attention to what he read, he would have noted the COMBINATIONS that I offered previously...I NEVER offered "solar only".

And since Southy has demonstrated a REFUSAL to read information that I provide on various topics, it's amazing that he condescends to me regarding research.

So the stage is set...if he refuses to read what I cite and honestly discuss it in details, then he's just full of it as usual. As I said, it'll take time....TFB for Southy if I don't meet his time table.

I always thought that drill baby, drill crap-ola was embarrassingly stupid and vaguely pornographic. It sounds like something some RNC staffer who is addicted to youtube porn, or whatever it’s called, and sex bondage clubs (Yo! Michael Steele!) would think up.

This bloody oil mess sounds like it’s going to be bigger that the Valdez spill, and if it fucks up the ecosystem and fishing industry on the Gulf coast they ain’t never going to sink a well offshore California or Florida. People won’t stand for it. On a hilarious tangential note, I think it was only a couple weeks ago that the "drill baby, drill" crowd was pontificating that offshore drilling was perfectly safe and harmless. Outstanding! Are republicans ever right?


Anyway, my solution:

They should give all of BP’s offshore gulf leases to Venezuelan Citgo. It would be outstanding and effective legal punitive punishment for BP; and would just be plain old side-splitting comical fodder for us Libs.



In other news...

Sadly and surprisingly, the U.S. Minerals Management Service for some reason canceled it's 2010 Offshore "Safety Awards" shindig in Houston.

You won't use gas anymore? I'll give you props for that. Change starts with just one person. What are you going to do walk or bike everywhere or do you have good public transportation near you?

Who said that I wont use gas anymore... I simply pointed out that Sarah Palin wont likely be using the line "Drill baby Drill" anymore....

What an idiot!
 
He will also have to boycott plastics! And make sure that public transportation isn't using an oil-based fuel source. Good luck Jarhead!

What a fucking itiot.... Not that I EXPECT different from Dixtie, she always posts such dumb shit.

Where did I say Id be boycotting anything?
 
Id say at least a third of this is the fault of people like... Dixties

Especally those who voted for GWB because of how good he looked in blue jeans to them!
