President Obama spoke again at a joint session of Congress. During his speech he spoke alot obout alternative fuels, alternative products and alternative energies. What President Obama did not mention was drilling off shore or in ANWR.
By ignoring the topic he is basically stating that he will not allow it. By telling the world that he will not allow it, has and will create the atmosphere for crude oil and gasoling to rise again.
When the former President Bush stated we will now drill and become energy sufficient, the gas rack prices fell by 20 cents over the next couple days, and Crude started falling also.
Now President Obama has ignored or inferred that he will not allow new drilling in sensitive areas, and within 2 days Crude has climbed by six dollars a barrel and the gas rack has jumped by twenty-six cents per gallon. Most are blamming it on increased demand but the rack price had already corrected for that theory.
This is not just a coincedence, for President Obama's alternative fuel programs to succeed gasoline must sell above $3.50 to $4.00 per gallon. For example; if you pull in to a gas station and diesel fuel is $2.009 and the alternative is $4.00 which will you buy?
Soy and corn are more expensive per gallon to grow and process, and they provide less energy. This is not rocket science!
I believe in climate change, the climate has always been changing, we've had the ice age, volcano's erupting, earth quakes, drouts, floods, frost in the south and record highs in the north.
Studies have proven that the earth's temperature has not increase in the last century or more; so why is former Vice President Gore and his cronies still touting the global warming theories. You will notice even the former Vice President Gore, winner of the noble prize for his work on global warming has now changed his pitch to climate change while continuing to declare an emergency and not admit to his mistakes. Oh ya, all this while he continues to rake in the millions and burn up petroleum.
America should do all it can to keep America clean, but we need to be sensible and not throw out the baby with the bath water. The good lord has provided all we need on this green earth to keep us warm and safe. To decide all of the sudden, that regardless of the scientific evidence, that we must rush to alternative fuels that are neither energy efficient nor cost effective is unlogical.
