    Nonsense. Has he complained about people making money? Said we need to steal more because 3.5 trillion a year isnt enough cash for our rulers to spend?

    I couldn't tell you what he says one way or another regarding the 3.5 trillion since I don't make it a habit of following stories about him.

    Nothing liberal about common sense management of the commons.

    Sounds like we should go with more nuke. Too bad that left wont allow it.

    Petrol harms humans? What was the population worldwide before the discovery of oil power? Since then? You claim too much. Power has made life much easier.

    I have been invested in nuclear power for over 30 years.

    You must have seen tons of plants built in the US, free from leftist protest and lawsuits. What was one of their names built during your time in the industry?

    Conservatives USED to care about the environment. Back in TR's time. Now their in bed with the coal and oil companies who give absolutely 0 (*)(*)(*)(*)s about the earth.

    Wind mills kill some bald eagles. Thats a shame, but coal pollution making the lakes around my home too poisonous to safely fish out of (unless you like your catfish lined with mercury)? Thats what I call a tragedy. Pretty much every lake in Southern Illinois is like that.

    Oh I planned some humor in it, give credit where it is due. I knew that would get you libbies worked up. What I know wont happen in return is any credible evidence that the earth will be X temperature in Y amount of years. But that is where the resources will go, while we do nothing useful for managing the resources we can actually preserve.

    Another case is the Keystone pipeline. The left says "no pipeline! we want more barged oil. Shipping it is much safer and conserves the resource. Gravity is so old school!". They dont say it outright like that, but that is what they are saying.

    Some great technologies have emerged like cleaning and recycling freeon gases and recycling POPS... Both are good for the environment and save industry billions.

    Oil is not destroying the earth. Republican states are among the cleanest, and have the most wildlife resources. Ever since you libbies got Central Park you think you are outdoorsmen. Go manage your pigeons, leave blue herons to Florida.

    Would be gone if you leftists allowed more fracking and nuclear enegy

    Not these days. But I know what you are talking about. Democrats put them all over northern Florida and we had those issues fishing in natural lakes.


    Of the commons. Exactly. Somewhere we can both agree government has a purpose - when it comes to managing the commons and the resources there that are publicly owned.

    Yeah, Democrats put them all over have tons of pollution and thumb their nose at others who are trying to get more nuke, but they block it. The fishing around nuke plants is excellent by the way. The left has no moral claim to ecology, just because we dont believe spending ourselves into poverty is the way to go. Fracking advancements have reduces emissions more then the Kyoto treaty anyway.

    Fracking is one of those things that could be good, but from everything I have seen, there are some massive oversight issues in a lot of area's where its done. I don't buy the whole "it will cause earthquakes!" argument, but the ground water situation definitely deserves a second look.

    I am actually a fan of nuclear energy. And those against it are a pretty mixed bag of both democrats and republicans. I really hope Harry Reid eventually gets over his brain deficiency and quits making a fuss about Yucca Mountain.

    Also, what is your opinion on the whole mountain top removal mining? I feel it goes too far. It definitely increases American coal output, but I don't think its worth destroying the Appalachians.

    Nothing more than Leftmyth nonsense, from the people bringing us the eagle killing "green industry".

    Where you live has been under ALMOST EXCLISIVE DEMCORAT CONTROL for MORE THAN 50 YEARS.

    Where's all the " environmental concern"?

    Ignored by corrupt Dems on the take from the very coal companies you deride...that's where.

    Uh-huh, sure he is.

    If he were a "liberal" on the issue of conservation, he would just blather about it, try to figure out some way to milk some tax revenue out of it, and use that to buy votes.

    Actually PERSONALLY TAKING ACTION, as Nudent has, and does, is as far from "liberalism" as one can get.

    I'm all for more nuke. I agree power has made human life much easier. That doesn't mean it has been good for the environment.

    Well that's what solvents do dude. Replacing seals is just part of high level engine maintenance and tuning...

    Why BUNA was invented. One need not tolerate the corrosive effects of alchohol, and most people are not at "high-level" engine anything, yet ethanol is in much of their fuel.

    There is also other problems in this issue. No one mentioned the hundreds of thousands of other bird species that are being destroyed to also include bats. Wind generated machines are destroying the ecology en masse.

    It also doesn't mean the earth is dying. As we go we find out leaded gasoline is unsafe etc...but no need to believe in the global warming prophesy.

    The fracking things you here are hyped up environmentalists feeling thei way through life. It is not based on science or actual risk.

    Can you expand on your viewpoints? I'm curious as to how you came to your conclusions.
