You'll be providn' a cite for that claim, right?

Land use
issues, corn prices and pollution from agriculture are all just
additional
nails in the coffin, as far as I'm concerned. Let's admit that the whole
program is just a big give away to agribusiness and get moving on other
alternative energy sources, including nuclear.


Call it what you want, I don't care, but when you have to lie and
distort about it to make your points, it weakens your point of view's
credibility.


When you have to include insults and personal attacks in every post, you
have ZERO credibility. Address the issues, if you can.
