Liberals Love Ethanol & Toyota Priusis.Do Liberals Know How Much Water,Coal,Oil,&Gov Subsidies Make It All Go?

Question

Do the liberals really care ? Are they even really thinking when they spout off their mouths on the subject ?......and then there are all those tons of fertilizer being dumped into the ground to keep the corn growing .....Where are the environmentalists on this one ??? Silly liberals...Silly demo-rats.

Answer 1

Here's one you'll really hate. If Reagan would have stuck with Jimmy Carter's energy plan, we would not be facing any of the crap we are now.

A lot of dangerous chemicals in fertilizer have been removed over the years. Using corn for fuel is the most stupid idea of the century. I'll give you that one. I think people who want off of oil are your friends. Now put your silly SUV in the garage.

Answer 2

I have always been concerned about ethanol production. Nothing is free. I am more worried about the water table in the midwest because of all the irrigation. So, once again you missed the mark and assume that environmentalists don't think of these things.

Answer 3

Actually both of those technologies were pushed for by the right-wingers who have been campaigning to remove our dependence on foreign oil.
As far as ethanol is concerned, it was pushed for, by liberals, decades ago, before it was obsolete. We should now, already be driving hydrogen fuel cell-powered vehicles. liberals have claimed that ethanol should be made from agricultural waste, which there is plenty of. But makign things in that manner doesn't make stock holders near as happy.

Hybrids are the Bush answer to conservation by keeping us dependant on fossil fuels, but not using as much, so prices can be cranked higher to increase margins.

Answer 4

Everyone is so eager to find alternate fuels that they don't look at the cost and the environmental impact. I would like to see some numbers showing the actual cost to produce ethanol and what it's impact on the environment will be.

Answer 5

If only it were just [1/2 of the country] the Liberals; it's not. We should all worry that the same lunatics that have choked off our oil-based energy are now going to turn our food into fuel.

Answer 6

I believe that libs, many moderates like me, and a few cons do care about our environment. Yes ethanol from corn is a hoax perpetrated by spinelss politicians, but ethanol from other sources is a viable alternative to purchasing expensive oil from hostile nations. Brazil has all of its cars running on an ethanol fuel made from sugar cane, so it can be done.

You are being too cynical, and negative, we can reduce our dependence on fossil fuels without harming our environment.

Answer 7

I've never been in favor of ethanol. It uses more energy to make it than octane-based gasoline. Toyota Priuses are just more efficient vehicles. I thought Republicans liked efficiency, no?


Switch to nuclear power!

Answer 8

Of course they don't care. You forgot rule #2 of dealing w liberals: It's their intentions you are supposed to applaud while ignoring the false logic and general silliness they display along the way. (Rule #1 is: You are not allowed to tell them they are wrong. Ever. If you do, you are a racist, homophobe, sexist, denier, etc... Insert your own lib catchphrase here.)

Answer 9

Do neo-cons know that there the ones giving all those subsidies to coal, oil and nuke power, The libs want those subsidies to go to solar, wind and geo-thermal but we take what we can get for now.
