McCain's oil plan is business as usual

Full story: Chicago Tribune

Sen. John McCain pretends to be serious about climate change but his policy agenda exposes a business-as-usual approach that rewards big polluters while doing little to address the climate crisis.

Senator John Mccain Arizona-has been a cheerleader and bagman for dirty coal for decades & King coal's kissin' cousin Dark Lord Nuclear.In his state Gov bill Richardson had been critical of Sithe Global's giant dirty coal-fired plant(Sithe global being owned by world's largest private equity corp Blackstone.
(In addition to the impact of coal on the natural environment of Black Mesa, twelve thousand Navajos have been removed from their lands due to the mining, the largest removal of Native Americans since the 1880s.[13] John McCain authored the relocation bill, called the 1974 Navajo-Hopi Settlement Act.[14]

Observe how no one peep is uttered by our "enviro"-troll
(robo-"enviro"-troll , maybe?)
about Big Oil.

Does one need more proof of who backs this troll (be it human, human-enhanced, or fully automated) and this style of trolling?

Hey John McCain, check out the electric car at www.ampmotorworks.com . Here's an idea - break our dependency on foreign oil by using good old electricity.

Good old electricity doesn't grow on trees (or current bushes) BUT MUST BE PRODUCED.

On one side, you have a biatch who is a lawyer, married to a lawyer, running against a lawyer who is married to a biatch who is a lawyer.
On the other side, you have a war hero married to a good looking woman who owns a beer distributorship.
What are you lads thinking over there?'
What???? Why not have another pint and let the grown ups discuss politics in the US.

Radiation cures cancer. We already have more than 100 commercial nuclear power plants and not a shred of evidence that those plants cause any cancer at all. If you are indeed worried about radiation causing cancer, then you need to move out of New Mexico. New Mexico is one of the seven states that have high human raditation dose from natural radiation sources.

Hydrogen is not an energy source. More energy must be expended to produce hydrogen. Wind and solar are being tried. But together, they cannot provide nearly enough energy to supply our needs.

There have been many undisclosed nuclear leaks. Worse than that is the simple fact that we don't know what to do with the waste. The waste is so bad that the "next" primary life form on this planet will have to deal with what we have left. Nuclear power is not anything but a super heated steam generator. It doesn't actually use the nuclear fission energy itself.

Drilling for more oil is not an answer. It would just put off the inevitable. A combination of solar, wind, and geo-thermal energy sources would put us in a position that we could use much less oil. Every home should have the capability to produce most of their own power and be able to put some of that power into the grid at peak use times. By the way, the real reason we use too much energy is because we have too many people on this planet. We need to seriously start studying the birthrates and coming up with a stabilization plan.

That's it, when you have no facts, just make things up.

Why? Nobody had to deal with the waste from the 19 natural reactors that operated for millions of years at Oklo.
