from the state of the union address, some good news that may have went overlooked !

Even more, I ask you to take a crucial step and protect our environment in ways that generations before us could not have imagined.
In this century, the greatest environmental progress will come about not through endless lawsuits or command-and-control regulations, but through technology and innovation.
Tonight I'm proposing $1.2 billion in research funding so that America can lead the world in developing clean, hydrogen-powered automobiles.
(APPLAUSE)
A simple chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen generates energy, which can be used to power a car, producing only water, not exhaust fumes. With a new national commitment, our scientists and engineers will overcome obstacles to taking these cars from laboratory to showroom, so that the first car driven by a child born today could be powered by hydrogen, and pollution-free.
(APPLAUSE)
Join me in this important innovation to make our air significantly cleaner, and our country much less dependent on foreign sources of energy.

That's the only thing Old Beady Eyes said half positive. Germany and Japan have been developing this for 20 years. The measly amount of $1.2 billion is a joke, considering $360 billion for military. He is just trying to placate the environmentalists, the same as Gore did with his book, but then he sold out to mining and oil companies. Exxon Mobil have close to zero allotted for hydrogen and other alternatives. There's something deeply psychological about energy from under the ground vs. energy from Hydrogen, the wind, and the sun. Earthbound in vision and thinking. |

Never said I wasn't biased slightly. 60% liberal..40% conservative. If you heard what I thought about Clinton when he was in, you think I was a conservative.
What I am saying is that COMPARED to military and what oil companies spend and make, $1.2 billion is a drop in the bucket. A Manhattan Project style alternative energy endeavor is needed. But the oil soaked administration is just giving lip service. Too much god in his speech. Will the Real God please stand up! And I'm not an atheist!
That was a John AssCrack you were seeing. |

I try to look on the bright side of things and 1.2 billion is better than a kick in the butt !

If I remember correctly, didn't George W. Bush upon getting into office release big business factories, with their ugly smoke spewing stacks, from adhering to evironmental cleanup standards?
Him speaks with forked tongue!!!

yeah I think he did...because if he didn't the state gov.s were going to have to shut down power plants in N.J and other east coast areas...because of "strict new" guidelines the clintonestas put forth upon exiting office...
too bad he didn't eh jeanie ?
then you could go back to that candle lit tent you've always wanted and I would not have to read your crap !

Seeker; Didn't you say you like to look on the bright side of things? I wish you would make an effort to look for the good in your fellow posters. I don't understand you at all. Wonder if you were abused as a child or maybe didn't get your share of Mother love. Why do you always act so contrary??? Life will be ever so much more pleasant if you make an effort to look for the good in people. Your going to wear out the little green icon with the red tongue. put on a happy face |

A Remarkable Prophecy . . .
". . . water decomposed into it primitive elements. . . . and decomposed doubtless by electricity, which will then have become a powerful and manageable force. . . . I believe that water will one day be employed as fuel, that hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used singly or together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light, or an intensity of which coal is not capable. Some day the coal rooms of steamers and the tenders of locomotives will, instead of coal, be stored with these two condensed gases, which will burn in the furnaces with enormous calorific power . . . . I believe, then, when the deposits of coal are exhausted, we shall heat and warm ourselves with water. Water will be the coal of the future."
Jules Verne, The Mysterious Island - 1870
