/Rant On

$2 Million to go to Brazil thanks to Obama.

Source.

With all the oil we Know is here in the USA, lets fund drilling off of Brazil. Makes sense right? No it doesnt! They dont even have to drill here with the amount of finds that have been capped. What we lack is refinery cappacity. One also might question why we have so much of our refining cappacity in Hurricane Alley.

Why increase our refineries output when the current push is to go green? Because our infrastructure is based on fosile fuels. Electric or Hybid cars, the electricity has to come from somewhere, batteries are not 100% efficient, so the electricity is produced from fosile fuels. Speaking of batteries, if you want a hybrid or electric car, you support strip mining if you expect the end product to be affordable. What happens to the batteries when they can no longer hold a charge, they get recycled. Recycled into what exactly?

/Rant off.

Regaurdless of the above rant, how many barrels of oil are sitting under our feet? We are importing millions of barrels of oil and gas because we dont have the cappacity to refine what we currently have in the ground on our own soil.

Twit???? That's not very nice. Maybe the pot calling the kettle black.....????

And the "real" facts???? I guess that could depend on which source you care to believe.

BO's Jr press secretary should think about running for office. This guy is smarter, can talk without a teleprompter and off his cuff.

I was thinking about how TK's political career would have been had he not been driving on that bridge way back when.

Then, I compared his experience being a senator with the current WH occupant.

Somehow I think the country was shortchanged.

Wow, fate can be cruel.
