Lets start drilling more on Government land, use solar power, wind power, wave power, natural gas, and that fracking method used in North Dakota, to bring our energy reserves to a point where we can get out of the Middle East all together. You Lib environmentalist cannot have it both ways, get out of the middle East oil supplying Countries yet not increase our own energy Natural resources. 
I get the impression that there are people in the USA who will always want US there, using the need for oil excuse, because we are then able to defend Israel, and I say let the American Jews go over there to defend Israel first, not our boys. We could help the Jews with supplies, etc, and I do not want to hear the racist bullsheet, I am calling it like it is and you peoples know that I am Right. So let's hear it......
		
		
	 
Are you really going against the Greedy Oil Party's agenda? What big oil wants ALEC supplies, and you are going against that? Watch out, some on your side will be calling you a RINO or (gasp) liberal. Renewable energy backed by conservatives? about as much chance as Israel giving back land. HAhaahahahahahah
Your threads are always weird and filled with half truths but this one takes the cake (a conservative FOR renewable energy), It might get you in trouble with your party.
ALEC calls for penalties on 'freerider' homeowners in assault on clean energy
For 2014, Alec plans to promote a suite of model bills and resolutions aimed at blocking Barack Obama from cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and state governments from promoting the expansion of wind and solar power through regulations known as Renewable Portfolio Standards.
Conservative group ALEC pushes stealth tax on homeowners who install solar panels
An alliance of corporations and conservative activists is mobilising to penalise homeowners who install their own solar panels – casting them as “freeriders” – in a sweeping new offensive against renewable energy...
The group sponsored at least 77 energy bills in 34 states last year. The measures were aimed at opposing renewable energy standards, pushing through the Keystone XL pipeline project, and barring oversight on fracking, according to an analysis by the Centre for Media and Democracy.

Republicans Kill Section 1603 Renewable Energy Cash Grants
As part of pushing for tax cuts for the rich, today Republicans filibustered (would not allow an up or down vote on) the Baucus Amendment that would have extended the deadline for solar projects to get a 30% cash grant.

Why Conservative Attacks On Wind And Solar Energy?
The fossil-fuel industry is fully developed after many decades of government help. Going up against a fully-developed industry like oil and coal is enormously expensive, and the industry is trying to block We, the People from triggering private investment to help get us out from under its grip. It has nothing to do with government interfering in markets, or “picking winners and losers,” this is about us helping offset the enormous competitive advantage oil and coal have due to government investment and assistance in oil and coal in prior decades. We do this because We, the People see the benefits and prosperity that will come to us from developing these alternative energy industries.
