Just what this nation doesn't need. More regulations forcing
business to do what the people don't want. I thought this was
supposed to be a free country, a constitutional republic. Not a
dictatorship where the Fed tells us all what to do?

Who's going to rein in an out of control Washington DC?

Dittoes. Green is a good idea but I don't want it rammed down my throat by
government.
Politicians may speak well but are generally technically ignorant and can be
bought. A good example is the ethanol fuel business mess.

Yeah, that one is really hysterical.

Did anybody hear the "president" make his speech about switch-grass,
as a source for alternative auto fuel? I laffed till I like to bust.

First of all, he's as clueless about switchgrass as he is about
everything other than thumping his Bible. Some idiot writes stuff for
him and he reads it. Got so that he can almost read off a
teleprompter without making too many mistakes. But when they have to
let him out to face the public, much less the chicken press, and he
has to speak impromptu, poor language-challenged soul that he is, now
that is a real spectacle!

(For a delightful list of his goofs, go to slate.com and search for
Bushisms. Editor Jacob Weisberg has collected them back to 2001 if
not earlier.

Example: I think—tide turning—see, as I remember—I was raised in the
desert, but tides kind of—it's easy to see a tide turn—did I say those
words?"—Washington, D.C., June 14, 2006)

Second, neither he nor anyone else in his incompetent, ignorant,
cowardly, corporate-ass-kissing administration will mention the Fuel
that Dares Not Speak Its Name (for the unaware, a take-off on what
used to be called "The Love that Dares Not Speak its Name", i.e.
homosexuality.)

Namely Hemp -- a four-letter word, because the ignorant masses have
been spun by the oilionnaires who run our country to believe you can
get high on it like its cousin marijuana. Just try it; I'll stand
there laffing while you choke.

Hemp has been used since pre-Biblical times for clothing, sails,
ropes, hundreds of uses. It grows on the worst soil like a weed.

The oil from its seeds makes excellent, clean-burning fuel.

Taking bets on how long it will be until some f****ing politician
gets around to a little research on the millennial usefulness of
H- - p.
