    Bush refuses to update the power grid without drilling in Alaska

    http://www.nytimes.com/2003/08/19/po...c80a85&ei=5062

    goes to show how many inches of Big Oil cock are up Dubya's ass

    why not seperate it into 2 bills, one for updating the grid and one for drilling in Alaska?
    nice way to blackmail the country into making the oil companies even richer

        Good for George.
        The tree huggers are funny. They want their tv's, they want their internet, they want their air conditioning and their espresso machines... but they don't want to build more power plants and they don't want to drill for oil.

        And then they bitch when there's a power shortage.

        If we could run cities off of all the hot air they're spewing out of their blowholes, we'd be rich indeed.

            Bush supporters are even more funny than tree huggers.

              Why the fuck should the government update the power grid?

              I love how all you leftists always run to government.

              "Help me, daddy Bush, please spend other people's money on the power grid!"

              Fucking losers.

                                      It's become "too" complicated for me. I can't digest the abject tripe spewed by functionally illiterate public school graduates anymore. I'm a GFY Bulimic.

                                              That's right - and it's not yours either.

                                                    'Though the complex electricity provisions in the bills received little public attention in the past, they have been contentious in Congress and within the industry itself. Lawmakers have differed on how far Congress and the administration should go in asserting federal authority over the power grid. The Bush administration and Republican leaders in Congress would stop short of a proposal from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission that some lawmakers from the South and West say would usurp state control of utilities. They instead favor enacting new reliability standards and giving authority to enforce them to a body like the North American Electric Reliability Council, a voluntary industry association.'

                                                    Why do Feds need to control it?

                                                    'But some House Democrats stepped up their push to separate the power grid provisions in the energy bill from others like drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska, tax breaks for the oil and gas industry and other benefits for energy producers.'

                                                    Ah tax breaks for the oil and gas industry.

                                                          Actually, they used to. Now they have the second worst -- the leftist utopia of China has taken over that title from Mexico.

                                                                              That certainly doesn't look good, but I wish the article had more info on exactly what kind of tax breaks are in the bill. For instance, I wonder if the tax breaks provide incentives for the companies to do something desirable or are they just plain ole tax breaks? I have too little info to really form a solid opinion on that part of the bill.

                                                                              As for drilling in ANWR, critics like to point out that estimates say there is only enough oil to power the US for a few years. They leave out the fact that those estimates assume the US gets no oil from anywhere but ANWR and that there is billions of dollars worth of oil waiting to be retrieved, and the people who actually live there are in favor of it.

                                                                                    And now that insanity is spreading across the nation like a fucking plague.

                                                                                    It's okay to drill in other countries for our power needs, but not in our own?
                                                                                    It's okay to use more power than is necessary, but not do whatever we can to reduce those costs for ourselves and reduce the strain on our power infrastructure?

                                                                                    THAT is hypocrisy.
