Giving You More Than Just My Two Cents
One More Little Tidbit
The impeachment articles were not just about the Iraq war. George W. Bush has also been the worst president involving the environment. Laws made to protect our precious resources have been obliterated by this agency including one that played a big role in my families life, the Superfund bill which was designed to force coorporations to cleam up their shit if they choose to dump into a landfill on public land. That bill no longer is funded and thus landfills filled with toxic waste are no longer being cleaned up because the Bush administration choose to let industry not be responsible for their fuck ups.
Here is evidence of this administrations brain washing its following on global warming and climate change, this directly out of the Kucinich impeachment papers:
"4. A December 2004 paper in Science reviewed 928 studies published in peer reviewed journals to determine the number providing evidence against the existence of a link between anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide and climate change. "Remarkably, none of the papers disagreed with the consensus position."
In addition:
" In December of 2007, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform issued a report based on 16 months of investigation and 27,000 pages of documentation. According to the summary: "The evidence before the Committee leads to one inescapable conclusion: the Bush Administration has engaged in a systematic effort to manipulate climate change science and mislead policy makers and the public about the dangers of global warming." The report described how the White House appointed former petroleum industry lobbyist Phil Cooney as head of the Council on Environmental Quality. The report states "There was a systematic White House effort to minimize the significance of climate change by editing climate change reports. CEQ Chief of Staff Phil Cooney and other CEQ officials made at least 294 edits to the Administration's Strategic Plan of the Climate Change Science Program to exaggerate or emphasize scientific uncertainties or to de-emphasize or diminish the importance of the human role in global warming."
Thats just great, an oil lobbyist as head of the COUNCIL ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY!!!!!!!!!!! HOW DO YOU APPOINT HIM TO A ROLE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A WATCH DOG FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. His interests are big oil's interest, he doesn't give a shit about the environment.
How much more evidence do you need that we have all been mislead by this administration. I beg you to go read the rest of this its horrendous what this administration has gotten away with.
Clinton got a blow job and got impeached, Bush has a 65 page rap sheet of things a hell of a lot worse than Clinton having sex.
27,000 pages are you fucking kidding me....your tax dollars at work. No wonder why the libs are imploding and ruining this country...they control congress. They find every way imanginable to waste our hard earned dollars. They should take head to their own preaches and try to save a tree or two it doesn't take 27,000 pages to explain anything unless they have figured out how the universe was developed and why humans exist. Then again the machine is stuck on the spin cycle. Call the repair man.
Jeff, would you rather do Kenneth Star all over again and have him coming up with 100s of thousands of pages over a blow job? Because that is what the Kenneth Star thing was a Blow Job.
This is the Bush Administration purposely hiding and editing the truth to support their own agenda, lying to the American people about the environment, our air our water ......our natural resources. Its more than just a 27,000 page document and this administration is worthy of the investigation for all the lying they have done and the treasoness acts they have committed.
This is it. This will solve all of our problems. Holy Crap I am a GENIUS. No wonder why the federal govt ruind the rail industry in the US. They are fule efficient wich means less revenue from taxes. We need to immidiately sieze everyones car/truck/SUV. Let everyone walk, ride their bike or better yet get that horse you have been wishing for, everwhere for a while. We could all use the exercise. Start tearing out all the asphalt and shift our transportation system, the entire thing, to rail.
Moving freight by rail is three times more fuel efficient than other over-the-road alternatives. Trains can move a ton of freight 423 miles on a single gallon of fuel. Efficient use of fuel means less greenhouse gas emissions for our nation.
Since 1980, through technology and innovation, the railroad industry has improved locomotive fuel efficiency by around 80%. How are we doing it?
Actively investing in our future - Since 2000 we have invested more than $1 billion to upgrade our fleet with more efficient, Tier II clean air locomotives. These locomotives meet the latest EPA emission requirements.
Upgrading our technology - By 2009, more than 1,200 CSX locomotives will be upgraded to further reduce emissions and lower fuel consumption by nearly 10 million gallons.
Improving Process - CSX continues to pursue locomotive shut-down systems to reduce fuel consumption and reduce related emissions. These efforts include the CSX-designed Auxiliary Power Unit, a device that reduces nitrogen oxide emissions by 91%, hydrocarbons by 95%, carbon monoxide by 96% and particulate matter by 84% when a locomotive is idling.
No problem is more urgent today than America's dependence on foreign oil. It threatens our security, our economy and our environment. The next President must be willing to break completely with the energy policies not just of the Bush Administration, but the administrations that preceded his, and lead a great national campaign to put us on a course to energy independence. We must unleash the creativity and genius of Americans, and encourage industries to pursue alternative, non-polluting and renewable energy sources, where demand will never exceed supply.
Senator Obama voted for the same policies that created the problem. In fact, he voted for the energy bill promoted by President Bush and Vice President Cheney, which gave even more breaks to the oil industry. I opposed it because I know we won't achieve energy independence by repeating the mistakes of the last half century. That's not change we can believe in.
Barb, show me proof of Obama's vote on that. I want to see it. 99% of the time he has voted against Bush policies.

Americans 'Have To' Move Away From Oil, McCain Says
June 11, 2008
At a time when congressional Republicans are pressing for expanded domestic oil drilling to boost supply, Republican Sen. John McCain says the goal of his energy policy is to move Americans away from oil. He also said oil companies "absolutely" should be giving something back to the consumer.
Americans "have to" move away from oil, McCain said Wednesday, not only because of soaring gasoline prices, "but also because of greenhouse gas emissions."
His energy plan says nothing about oil drilling. Instead, McCain is pushing for alternative forms of energy -- especially an expansion of nuclear power
