Think of it as you visit the Great Deserts of America or Visit her Shores and Beaches "As Far As The Eye Can See" wonders Green Forests of "Wind Mills" or the "Mirrored Reflection of Beautiful Green Solar Panels" all brought to you by Your "Mad, Mad, Stupid Green Islamic/USSR of American Government" and a big "thank you" to the Islamic Chairman, Obama, his Obamanation Administration, the Marxist Controlled Congress and your Green Earth Warming Savior "Sexy Poodle Gore".

So go ahead, set in your "Collective Butts" don't, for Gods Sakes contact you Senators and Representatives and even try to fight this madness, just remember the next time you visit the Beauty of our OPEN Deserts and our OPEN Sea Shores, TAKE A PHOTO for your Children and Grandchildren that they might know "What Might Have Been". In Case You Care Enough:

Going Green Doesn’t Work

Going “green” is not going well. The U.S. Energy Information Administration’s 2010 forecast predicts fossil fuels will “continue to provide most of the energy consumed in the United States…” Only 6 percent [1] of the “energy consumed by 2035 will be replaced by renewable fuel sources.”

They will be principally wind and solar, for electricity and home heating, respectively, but with oil as our energy mainstay. Today,nearly half of voters favor continued [2] deepwater drilling in spite of the oil rig disaster that brought such serious environmental damage to Gulf of Mexico shorelines. “Some 80 percent of voters nationwide support offshore oil drilling…closer to shore,” a June 30 Rasmussen Poll reported.President Obama’s ideologically-based decision to substitute alternative, green energy for oil is a romantic political choice which America will not see fulfilled for a more than a generation, if ever.

But the President’s determination to drive toward other energy sources is seen in his decision to appeal Federal District Court [3] of New Orleans’ ruling against the Administration’s six-month moratorium on deepwater drilling in the Gulf. As columnist Charles Krauthammer [4] noted: “We haven’t run out of easily accessible sources of oil. We’ve been run off them by environmentalists. They prefer to dream green instead.”Wind power has been hoisted up by Obama Administration wishful thinking as a major alternative power source despite its anemic potential. Take General Electric Company’s plan to build wind turbines on Lake Erie. “Projects like this would never get off the ground [5] if it weren’t for massive tax breaks and government subsidies,” said a Cleveland Plain Dealer editorial blog. “But even then, wind power would be so costly that [the electric power company] wouldn’t touch it if it weren’t for the legal requirement that Ohio utilities buy 12.5 percent of their energy from ‘renewable resources,’ like wind, by 2025. The main argument for wind is that it is ‘green.’ It is not. Because wind blows irregularly, turbines run only about 30 percent of the time…. windpower will make money for companies like General Electric on the backs of taxpayers and ratepayers.”
