Would someone please drive a stake through the heart of this Republican scam. We all know ethanol is good welfare for farmers, costs more to produce than it is worth and would not survive without .50/gallon subsidy at a time when we should be subsidizing hybrid vehicles not corn!

Don't blame the Repub's on this scam, they couldn't pull this off without the Nobel prize winning Al Gore whining about the global warming that I have been waiting on for about a month or so. It's a two sided scam.

Al Gore is CHICKEN LITTLE with his "the sky is falling" crap. But Bozo Obama sure hasn't showed any intelligence when it comes to "Renewable fuels" he buys the ADM Montra all the way. What another Bush in the white house? Corn Ethanol will never do more than make us more dependent on foreign oil.
