The Democrats are fervently trying to tear down the hydro-electric dams that provide inexpensive power and irrigation water to farms. They fired Dr. Houser, a Dept of Interior Integrity Officer after he blew the whistle on the DOI's false justification for removing the four Klamath River dams. The DOI also wants to remove dams on the Snake and Columbia. Progressives want to revert America to pre-Columbian times. They hate modern agriculture.

What are YOU doing to stop them? Voting against them isn't enough. You must help conservative candidates.

Be thankful that conservatives challenged the Dept of Labor onerous rules that would dramatically reduce farm experience for kids. If Obama wins in November, expect Big Government to try again!

To drive home my point about progressive misinformation and malfeasance as Obama epitomized during his speech, I just published a novel, The Carbon Trap, www.rainforestpress.com, and available Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble. I find promoting conservative values through storytelling may be the best way to drive home the point. Besides it's a lot more entertaining (and yet frightful) to project what progressives would do given even more power. That I detail in the action/adventure book with romantic elements.

USGS in 2008 estimated the Arctic to hold 400 billion barrels of recoverable oil. If the US has 10% of that, there is enough oil to fund 20,000,000 teacher years.

New technology has been developed to dramatically increase recovery percentage, reduce pollution and energy consumption, and reduce waste of oil sands. This alone could dramatically improve US energy security...IF China doesn't preempt us and get the oil shipped directly to them.

New in situ thermal extraction technology that uses a new flexible ceramic heating wire coating can dramatically improve oil extraction from America's 800 billion barrels of extractable shale oil. THAT is a game changer. IF progressives, in their attempt to de-develop America, don't stop it.

Tell HBO what you think about Maher's promotion of hatred, violence, and intolerance. http://www.hbo.com/#/about/contact-us.html/

If you have HBO, cancel it. Tell them you won't take it again until Maher is gone.

And tell any of the sponsors of his show that supporting him is supporting intolerance.

Let's see under Hillary as SoS: North Korea still is being bought off; the Arab Spring is going to the Muslim Brotherhood; restraining Iran failed; we're still in Iraq and Afghanistan; Europe hates us; Latin America has turned away from us; China and Russia threaten us; what's to love?

The auto industry is being supported by government's forcing the destruction of American cars by the mandating of ethanol into the fuel. The auto industry found half the cars tested with E15 were damaged or destroyed by ethanol. It is the unions and government who are pushing E15 so that Americans will be COERCED into junking their older cars and buying new.

Too bad the press hasn't put one and one together.

The whole biofuel industry is teetering on the brink. It only survives with subsidies and tax credits.
The wind industry also suffers from government support addiction.

The Elwha Dam, Washington State, is being demolished at an opportunity cost of $1 billion over the next 50-100 years.

The dam produced an average of about 17MW per hour for 97 years.
17,000KW X .03/kwh X 24X365 X 97 years
$510/hour X 8760 hours/year X 97 years =
$4,467,600 X 97 = $433,357,200. Imagine what it could have produced in another 100 years! Probably well over $650,000,000.
Instead we pay $350,000,000 to tear it down.
So net difference is about $1 billion. Call it the billion dollar mistake.

Now if the dam had been upgraded for more efficient production, and the rate raised, the next 100 years might have gone even higher. Only someone who wants to de-develop America would praise this project.

And its not just oil. The revenue from the Pebble Mine in Alaska would fund approximately 2,290,000 teacher years.

Why do Progressives hate teachers???

The Pebble Mine would generate $458.60 billion it total potential value, close to what Obama wants on his Stimulus 1.5 bill.

@$3.33/pound for copper .
@$1800/ounce for gold.
Assume ultimately 50% goes into taxes at various levels, and $100,000 per teacher.
