“In other words ignore history... At your peril.

Non-sequitor if I've ever seen one.”

“In other words, remember the history of Kunstler "fighting against the machine" as one blogger put it (presumably big over-reaching government) so we can promote....even bigger over-reaching government of the Obama administration. it doesn't do any good to remember history if your going to repeat it's mistakes.”

“Dude, Obama is the only friend and ally you have or will have in government. Better get your head around the political realities that there are some policies and philosophies that cannot be embraced until the general public is ready to accept them. Otherwise he will lose all political capital and the next election.
Look above for my post which links to his drug czar appointment and read between the lines.
George Bush frequently told his elite supporters to not listen to what he says as much as watch what he does.

“Amazing that you haven't picked up on one thing: THE GENERAL PUBLIC IS READY. That's WHY this was the most important question.

“I agree. Obama listens, even if initially it appears he doesn't. Obama is our hope for the future...of this country and its citizens. Pot is a huge issue, but there are so many huge issues facing his presidency. I truly believe we need to start pushing Congress...we need to start twisting the arms of our senators. If we can garner support there, it would make it more possible for Obama to take a different stance on this issue. But, Obama is FAR FAR FAR better than a C-/D+. He is actually an A...He is doing a superb job.”

“Obama is not the only friend and ally I have. I have friends and allies in many different organizations and politically connected positions who have the power to influence policy.”

“Obama cannot touch this issue politically and it will likely remain a state level legislative issue however, he has shown in his appointment of Director Office of National Drug Control Policy former Seattle Police Chief Gil Kerlikowske a person who is tolerant and accommodating of voter sentiment, a philosophy very different from the previous administration.
Read about Kerlikowske here.

“I agree. If states can legislate so many different issues, why not pot?

If California can pass Proposition 8, why not a proposition to legalize pot.

There is no reason why this has to be done at the federal level.

All the states that want it - make it so.”

“If Bristol were 14 no one would touch her but she is 18 - old enough to drive, vote, hold political office, die in iraq, and is no longer a tax deduction for mom and dad. 18 is not a the age of a child but a young adult”

“If they are talking corn based ethanol then what a waste. Corn ethanol is a losing proposition propped up by federal subsidy. Net energy loss - net pollution loss - net food market loss.”

GoldEnergy replied on Dec 16, 2008 at 20:26:47

“Corn based ethanol is not the monster that the API (American Petroleum Institute) has been bashing with their well funded propoganda...rcpmac has bought into their misinformation hook, line & sinker.
See the Argonne National Laboratory study website at: www.chicagocleancities.org/PDFs/Wang2005Summary.pdf

Cellulosic ethanol is even better but corn base ethanol provides significant reduction in all pollution (including CO2), has a 25% energy gain (compared to gasoline's 25% energy loss), and the distiller grain left over - after the starch is distilled into alcohol - is a superior cattle feed than the corn itself (90% of the US crop goes toward feeding livestock). Corn is food and fuel and the environment is much better off than when using gasoline.”
