Wow that's excellent news! Gobama!

does Obama say anything to anyone to get elected, or is he indeed a radical?

if you can answer yes to either of those two questions with certainty...or even if you can't...he does not need to be the President.



in other radical Obama news:



"We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

because there is nothing as of yet, next year or even the next decade and presumably longer that can sustain 40% of the North American electrical grid and our appetite for steel...and he sure as hell isn't going nuclear.

this isn't about sustainable energy you idiot. we have enough coal to sustain ourselves for the next 200+ years if need be. this is about anthropogenic global warming theory.

Even if that's true, it just leads to the conclusion that this is a non-issue. If demand goes up or stays the same, and there is no alternative, then the price of electricity will just go up to pay for any surcharge. It's hardly a threat to the industry...

it's a non-issue if we're talking in terms of generations or even decades but as far as i can tell he's not. every indication is that he want's to do this now or sometime within his term regardless of the short term effects or our current capabilities.
