Her delivery is getting much better. In fact, she seems to be getting better every week.
@17R3W sorry, your math and logic is flawed. If 79% of Americans want higher emission standards, that means 79% of the Americans POLLED want this, not 79% of the total US population.
@AssholeBlogger
If 60% of Americans POLLED identify themselves as Conservative, but 79% of Americans POLLED also say they want higher emission standards, that means that of that 60%, 39% of those POLLED who identify themselves as conservatives also want higher emission standards.
If you fire every politician in Washington, you´ll get all the money needed for those projects.
@17R3W Nobody wants to pollute!
@jtkirkfan2002 Not to forget that Under Reagan Americas total wealth tripled! It went from a mere $17 trillion to $54 Trillion when he left office! The middle class actually became comfortable!
@RecceMan90
Fair enough, one could argue that higher emissions standards are a fairly centrist issue.
@17R3W Yep I am a complete Right Winger….I don’t believe in polluting just because I can! I believe in conservation, and responsible use. What makes me a right winger is I don’t need/want the Govt to legislate it!
@RecceMan90
Except that higher emissions standards would be government legislation, wouldn’t they?
Jodi Miller is hot, I love her smile and those dimples.
Wow, it’s like The Daily Show for retarded people.
That’s nice.
@17R3W They shouldn’t be. That should be a market place decision. An educated consumer would make the best decisions! I know for a fact that carbon is less harmful to the environment than say prius’ batteries. Oxygen is more harmful than Carbon…..Carbon is a natural by product, easily absorbed by the Earth. Electric/hybrids are a very poor choice for most people. They are weak, and not safe. Hydrogen or Natural Gas would be a better choice.
@RecceMan90
In terms of carbon, yes it’s perfectly natural but when carbon gets too high, all the earth can support is plant life, so you and are screwed.
I think Hyrbrid technology can scale. You could have a hybrid car or a hyrbrid USV.
In terms of electrics, there is a great video of Rush driving an electric car on Leno’s show. And while he didn’t buy into the concept of it “saving the earth” and he LOVED the car.
Excellent intro background!! Love the show!!
@17R3W July, 2010 huh? Why then in November, 2010 did every one of these issues go down in flames? I really doubt your source on all of your numbers because it they were true, then conservatives should have had their asses handed to them again and that didn’t happen. We made substantial gains in Washington, but also in the states. There are more state legislatures and governors’ offices under Republican control now than at any time in history. cont’
@17R3W Polls taken by the state-contolled media don’t even phase me. They take the poll in order to make the news that they want to report. They skew their samplings and even lie to get the percentages they want. If you want to continue to quote your numbers, that frankly I’ve never heard of before you pulled them out of some dark nether region, go ahead, but it won’t change the fact that this is a center-right nation with conservatives haviong the highest percentage of any group.
@17R3W You’re forgeting that I have absolutely no faith that any state-controlled media poll was taken with any attempt to be accurate. The only polls that matter are those taken in November. Every one of your “center-left” issues went down in flames in November, 2010. You can quote CBS, AP and the New York Times until you’re blue in the face. All three have been caught lying on more than one occasion.
@Fridaey13txhOktober Getting rid of the politicians wouldn’t even make a good dent. However I am totally and catgorically against what most liberals think that the “gov’ment” should provide.
Jodi Miller = The funniest!
@tinydancer1965 Not unless we share an imagination
Having Jodi as an ex? Are you kidding me? If she were my girl it would be foot massages every night!!!
