Drill Here. Drill Now. Pay Less

And as dense as I thought you were initially on this issue, here you spit absolute brilliance.
I recognize that there is a serious issue with high fuel prices - and getting those prices under control is necessary. But drilling doesn't guarantee that those prices will come down. We need energy independence as well as energy diversity.
I was commuting 100 miles a day just before fuel passed $3/gallon. Sold my place and moved to town - so I hear you on the fact that it becomes more expensive to go to work than it does to stay home. But fact is, it was a decision to commute that far. There were other jobs, and in an effort to alleviate the commute, I moved.
For the life of me, I have no clue why you are hell bent on flaming me here. Granted, I have conservative views and you obviously are more on the liberal side but one thing we both obviously agree on is the need for energy independence. It's just the methods we may disagree on.
And yes, that picture of Bush holding hands with King Abdullah makes my stomach turn like you won't believe. Not as a conservative, but as an American with great concern where things are headed.
Could you be any more liberal? How does Bill O'Reilly's cock feel in your mouth?
You know they're teaching 5th graders how to qualify Internet sources now, perhaps you could do the same.
Laughable.
Right. Nice response to getting fuck owned by real sources rather than rhetoric and drivel. Do you even know who the CATO institute is? Also hey, Consumer Reports, totally not reliable compared to the sourceless credibility that is bb_wolfe :bowdown:I'm Libertarian, by the way.
I'm Libertarian, by the way.
Consumer reports has been irrelevant for years, you know this.
But whatever. I invest in Ethanol and will continue to use it, as will millions of others.
The simple fact that Ethanol use is growing like wildfire, despite your highly liberal 'facts', disproves your views. A billion dollar industry sort of disproves your idea that Ethanol is a worthless product.
I suppose you're still jaded about the horse and buggy industry going down the shitter, eh?
still no facts or sources to back up Bush's cock in your mouth there, friend. plus, I gave the numbers about ethanol having a lower energy density than gasoline, that's a chemical fact. what are you going to say, liberals made up chemistry to piss you off?
plus since when is wanting a free market instead of subsidized shit liberal?
I forgot that since it's on the Internet, it's a fact. (90% of facts are made up, 50% of the time - love that commercial.)
And 'having less energy'? WTF? I think you mean to talk about how the octane ratings and combustion variables are different.
Just stop, you're beat. EOT. Ethanol is here to stay, but keep screeching if you wish, I won't be listening.
I really wish more people were honestly. The dual party system we have is there for nothing other than sticking it to the ever diminishing middle class.... but hey, what the hell do I know right? *as I go off to file my quarterly taxes*
lol you're a fucking moron.
look up the energy density in ethanol and the energy density in gasoline. as a matter of fact, here you go:
oh, and MJ = Megajoules, a unit of energy
which converts, as I said in a quote earlier, to:
Ethanol: 75,670 BTU/Gal
Gasoline: 115,400 BTU/Gal
it's not octane rating at all you dipshit. it's how much unit energy per unit volume can be obtained from the chemical. you have NO idea what you're talking about, and what you're getting into.
edit: should be noted that higher octane fuels have lower energy densities. it may be cleaner for your car but you get worse mileage in general.
Don't get me wrong, I agree the 2-party system sucks and am not bashing him for being a libertarian per-se, hell, I was registered reform until that party collapsed.
I just think his idea is a little elitist and skewed by what he's read, not what he knows.
I tend to take what I read with a grain of salt, since it is influenced by that very 2 party system we distrust.
Ah, I didn't think I was flaming, just using the wickedfire vernacular.
I jumped to some conclusions, threw out a fair bit of my own hyperbole, and generally had a pretty good time!
+1 for you.

Who'da thunk that posting a link to a "douchey petition" would turn into such a hot topic!
No joke. Everyone in this thread is someone I'd love to buy a few rounds for at ASE. I'll even pay for the ER visit once we get really disagreeable!
still trying to make sense of this too since o'reilly whines about liberals and hates them with a passion
Too broke to go :anon.sml: Too new to affiliate stuff to have enough built up for that
You're not going to like this: I'm going to ASE with the dividend check I received from a $7500 investment in an ethanol plant in Groton, SD back in 2006.
How fucking ironic is that.
