T. Boone Pickens Admits Windmills Are a Waste of Money

dditton — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 13:38:38 +0000

From Moonbattery:

Even in a time when people can be arrested just to placate Al Sharpton and his mob, sometimes there is justice. T. Boone Pickens, who hoped to exploit green hysteria to make a crony capitalist fortune through inefficient but politically correct windmills, has lost his shirt — or as he puts it, his a**:

Oilman T. Boone Pickens made a statement on MSNBC’s Morning Joe Wednesday that should make every green jobs advocate including Barack Obama, Al Gore, and Van Jones sit up and take notice.

“I’ve lost my a–” in wind power.

But what about the mythical “green jobs” Obama gave Van Jones $60 billion of our money to create?

“The jobs are in the oil and gas industry in the United States. I mean, that’s where it is. You have an industry that is superb in comparison of oil companies around the world. They are the best.”

Pickens continued, “They found the oil the cheapest, they found the gas the cheapest for you and all, and you have somebody saying, ‘Hey, they’re not paying their fair share, and they make too much money, they need to be taxed more.’ Hey, they’ve gone out and done exactly what you wanted. They got jobs for you, they got the oil and gas cheaper for you.”

Their thanks: to be denounced by demagogues, looted by thieves, and driven out of business by lunatic ideologues.

The objective, as revealed by prominent Democrat Maxine Waters, is to nationalize the energy sector. After that happens, we will have plenty of windmills, but when we flip the switch, the lights won’t come on.

Money up in smoke.

Definition of a Mic Gaffe: Politician Telling the Truth

dditton — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 22:06:33 +0000

From The Heritage Foundation:

On August 11, 1984, President Ronald Reagan joked over a “hot” mic, “My fellows Americans, I am pleased to tell you today that I have signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.” It was a joke, but we all knew it masked a serious truth. Reagan had declared on more than one occasion that the Soviet Union was a grave threat to freedom and security—only the year before he had declared it the “evil empire.”

President’s Obama’s now-infamous “flexibility” gaffe ought to be seen in the same light. The President means what he says. The President’s commitments to missile defense have always been equivocal, a placebo to be traded away to placate the Russians rather than as a defense system to protect Americans from the world’s greatest danger: a nuclear-tipped missile.

A penchant to be brutally honest in unguarded moments is about all Reagan and Obama share. On protecting Americans, they are polar opposites. Reagan believed in peace through strength. Obama believes in safety by relying on the generosity of would-be adversaries.

Obama Regime Moves to Kill Coal Industry

dditton — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 21:56:53 +0000

From Moonbattery:

In terms of energy, coal is our most abundant resource. That is why it is used to generate about half of our electricity, and why Barack Hussein Obama promised before he was elected to make energy prices “skyrocket” by crippling the coal industry with malevolent regulations openly intended to bankrupt it. Using the most frightening bureaucracy in the entire malignant behemoth that calls itself our government, Obama has made good on this threat by targeting dozens of coal plants for destruction. Now his EPA delivers the death blow:

The Obama administration proposed on Tuesday the first rules to cut carbon dioxide emissions from new U.S. power plants, a move hotly contested by Republicans and industry in an election year.

The Environmental Protection Agency’s proposal would effectively stop the building of most new coal-fired plants in an industry that is moving rapidly to more natural gas.

Obama’s Flexibility Doctrine

dditton — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 21:49:54 +0000

From National Review:

“On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this can be solved, but it’s important for him to give me space. . . . This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility.”
— Barack Obama to Dmitry Medvedev, March 26

You don’t often hear an American president secretly (he thinks) assuring foreign leaders that concessions are coming their way, but that they must wait because he’s seeking reelection and he dare not tell his own people.

Not at all, spun a White House aide in major gaffe-control mode. The president was merely explaining that arms control is too complicated to be dealt with in a year in which both Russia and the U.S. hold presidential elections.

Rubbish. First of all, to speak of Russian elections in the same breath as ours is a travesty. Theirs was a rigged, predetermined farce. Putin ruled before. Putin rules after.

Obama spoke of the difficulties of the Russian presidential “transition.” What transition? It’s a joke. It had no effect on Putin’s ability to negotiate anything.

As for the U.S. election, the problem is not that the issue is too complicated, but that if people knew Obama’s intentions of “flexibly” caving on missile defenses, they might think twice about giving him a second term.
