This is a joke...right?



I'm sorry. Maybe its just that I don't like the taste of bullshit in my mouth, but who are they trying to kid? Who do they think is going to listen to that nonsense?

Its no secret that once elected, a politician will not be able to keep all of his or her campaign promises. And, its also true that sometimes they just simply can't and other times they purposely don't. But, that is not the issue I'm taking with this little tidbit of nonsense.

The issue that I'm taking with it right at this moment is the fact that its total bullshit. Its not even attempting to engage us, its an insult to the intelligence of anyone who reads it. There is no way that increasing dirty energy is going to lead to green energy.

I realize that the transition from dirty energy to green energy or clean energy cannot be made overnight. However, this is not a step, not even a baby step, in the direction that would lead us there. Instead, its a huge giant leapfrogging step toward increased dirty energy. Period.

There is no way that I can see that you can increase dirty energy in order to get to clean or green energy.

There's nothing more to say about it than that. Its a lie, but its not even a well-thought-out lie. Its not even an intelligent lie. Its just bullshit.

I like you, Mr. President, but don't feed me bullshit. It doesn't agree with my system.

  1. Well you know how politics are, nothing but dirty and you expect dirty things to make the planet cleaner? Maybe in a millenia from now it'll be possible. Until then prepare to be fed bullshit, just buy plenty of mouthwash it knocks the taste right out. Am I sarcastic? Oh yes.. very much so, bad promises make me that way lol.

  2. lol! I doubt we've got another millenia. If we don't fix the problem soon, there might not be much we can do to fix it, ever. :p

  3. The big secret is many Americans want change without changing their lifestyles.

    We don't "need" to drill for oil, we could instead reduce the amount of energy we currently use. But if Obama started enforcing government-mandated energy usage, as other countries do, people would accuse him of being a Commie. He's a symptom of a problem, but not the problem.

  4. I know what you mean. :( Nobody wants to change their lifestyle, because that would mean inconveniencing themselves. And Americans are too used to instant gratification. If we don't get it, we cry foul, and insist that something needs to change so that we can get it, no matter what trouble it might cause in the environment.
