Obama: I Will Bankrupt Coal Industry - See the Video!
 November 3, 2008


OBAMA:  Let me sort of describe my overall policy.  What I've said is that we would put a cap and trade system in place that is as aggressive, if not more aggressive, than anybody else's out there.  I was the first to call for a 100% auction on the cap and trade system, which means that every unit of carbon or greenhouse gases emitted would be charged to the polluter. That will create a market in which whatever technologies are out there that are being presented, whatever power plants that are being built, that they would have to meet the rigors of that market and the ratcheted down caps that are being placed, imposed every year.  [Read More]

Your Lawnmower will pay a carbon foot print tax under the OBAMA GREEN plan!
October 31, 2008


According to an interview with Bloomberg last week: "Barack Obama will classify carbon dioxide as a dangerous pollutant that can be regulated, opening the way for new rules on greenhouse gas emissions. Obama will tell the Environmental Protection Agency that it may use the 1990 Clean Air Act to set emissions limits on power plants and manufacturers, That move would impose new regulation and taxes across the entire economy, something that is usually the purview of Congress. Further… "in the absence of Congressional action" 18 months after Mr. Obama's inauguration, the EPA would move ahead with its own unilateral carbon crackdown anyway.  [Read More]

Where do Senator Obama's loyalties lie?
September 18, 2008


Where does Senator Obama stand on Energy Policy? From the record it is obvious he is anti Big Oil and for Big Coal and Big Corn and sometimes he is for Big Environmental Lobbies, just depends on what he wants you to hear. But he is definitely not for an energy policy that works. If we look at his policies closely enough, they are genocidal and not Pro-Environment either. The position that Senator Obama's policy outlines will result in higher energy prices, sucking up to special interests, destabilizing our economy, burning food for fuel killing millions of the poor in Kenya and weakening our national security.  [Read More]

Pelosi Calls American's asking to Tap US Oil Reserves "Frivolous"
August 13, 2008


Congress: The national legislative body of the United States, consisting of the Senate and the House of Representatives.   These are the people that make our laws that dictate how we live. These are the people that we elect to act in our best interest.  We elected them with the belief that they could be trusted to make the right decisions for America’s future. But it seems that our congress has fallen victim to the Ostrich-effect.  I am stunned, as I am certain you are – Congress, during our most serious energy and economic crisis in decades recessed for a five week Summer Vacation without any real or significant intention to address the economic crisis being endured by the American people due to high energy prices.   Most of our Congress chose to relax and enjoy the global warming at the beach while ignoring the pain that Americans feel every day at the pump.  [Read More]

Does Schumer Have an Oil Brain Tumor?
July 18, 2008


On May 1, Senator Schumer (D-NY) stated "this million barrels a day that ANWR would produce would reduce the price of gasoline by a penny". The senior senator called drilling in the ANWR 'plain wrong.' This ideology just absolutely ignores the laws of supply and demand that run a free market economy.  But let's not assume he's has no grasp of economics just yet.  Less than two weeks later, on May 11th, the esteemed Senator from New York, Mr. Schumer, said: 'There is one way to get the price of oil down and it's two words — Saudi Arabia. If they were to increase by 800,000 barrels per day, the price would come down probably 35 to 50 cents a gallon. That's a lot."  [Read More]

Starbucks Sales Decline - Closing 600 Stores Nationwide
July 17, 2008


Starbuck's announced the closing of over 600 stores nationwide this past week. That will put more than 12,000 people out of work, mostly young people like me. Why are they closing their stores?  People must choose between fuel and a cup of coffee.  Newspapers are reporting: "Starbucks' sales and earnings have declined as cash-strapped consumers facing record gas prices cut back on gourmet coffee and other luxuries."  [Read More]

SmartGreenUSA Supports No More Excuses Energy Act H.R. 3089!
June 19, 2008


SmartGreenUSA urges you to take action and support the discharge petition introduced by Rep. Tim Walberg (R- MI) to force a vote on a bill to increase U.S. energy production and invest in alternative sources of energy. The appropriately named No More Excuses Energy Act, H.R. 3089, would increase the supply of energy produced in America and begin to break our dependence on foreign oil. 

Speaker Pelosi refuses to bring this bill to the House floor, a discharge petition is the only way to force a vote on this legislation. House rules state that a discharge petition must have 218 signatures (a simple majority) in order to bring a bill to the floor for a vote, and Rep. Tim Walberg is working hard to bring both Democrats and Republicans together in support of this bill. Currently the petition has 139 signatures.  [Read More]

There is a menace in the Arctic, but it is not melting ice caps!
May 30, 2008

There is a menace in modern America, it is not bomb wielding jihadists or obscene diseases, it is people, like you and me trying to take away our freedoms, our money, our rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. They are trying to systematically crush the Capitalist society, but this time they don’t want to replace is with socialism, but Anarchy. “That’s impossible” you may say, but it isn’t, They have already started. The polar Bear has recently been declared endangered, and the Eco-Terrorists are cleaning there guns, readying for the fight to take away your resources and your land. But what they don’t know, is this time. We'll fight back!  [Read More]

We all know that Al Gore is cashing in on the environment - At Your Cost!
May 30, 2008


Al Gore, philanthropist, Climate activist, and winner of the Nobel Peace prize, is the single greatest advocate in the war against humanity.  This war has, and will, claim millions of lives.  Millions of innocent lives, people whose only crime is being poor.  We need to protect not only others wellbeing, but our own freedoms, our own rights. We need to defend ourselves from Eco-Terrorist ideas, perpetuated by cheap theatrics and scaremongering.  We need to defend ourselves against Eco Evangelist Al Gore.  I know it is hard to believe, but AL GORE is propagating Green Genocide.

Ethanol: Food for Thought
May 30, 2008


We all remember the crisis of deforestation, how the Amazon was being ripped down to build homes and gather wood. This is all old news; we did our part, donated our time and money and defeated this menace. But what if we didn’t? What if the rainforest is disappearing at an alarming rate and it’s not loggers who are responsible, but the “Eco-Evangelist”?

Sadly this is no longer a “What if” scenario, it has become a terrible reality. The Eco-Evangelist, the same ones jacking up your energy prices, the same ones advocating the requirement of Ethanol in your gas, forcing you to pay premiums, are now destroying the very rainforests that they fought for.

Ads combat Senate climate bill

A conservative, free-market advocacy group, The Club for Growth, is airing radio and television ads to counter a Senate bill on climate change.  The purpose of the ads is to explain to the public the extent to which the legislation could damage the economy, should it pass. "The number of jobs that will be lost, the rise in price in gasoline and electricity, the loss in GDP -- it's all astronomical.  And we think it's important for people to know what's going on ..."  The legislation is a "massive redistribution of wealth," and the organization is asking concerned citizens to call their senators and urge them to oppose the measure.

"A nation of well informed men who have been taught to know and prize the rights which God has given them cannot be enslaved. It is in the region of ignorance that tyranny begins." 
Benjamin Franklin


"The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men."
Samuel Adams
