Energy Policy

Don't we all want the US to be more competitive in the world markets? Don't we want a better valued dollar? Don't we want more independence from foreign oil? Don't we want to move toward new sources of energy? Don't we all want to become more efficient and more effective in our methods? Don't we want to do all these things in a quick fashion?

Let's start investing big dollars by providing big incentives to find new sources of energy.

Let's use the natural resources we have in the gulf of Mexico and in Alaska.

Let's end this madness and stop blaming big oil companies and greedy politicians. Those arguments cut both ways and solve nothing.

We're not going to hurt a pack a of reindeer's. Even if we did at some point doesn't humanity supersede the needs of animals. So if we lose our county but save a pack of caribou are we noble people? In the bible we are told two balancing mandates. We are told be take dominion over and subdue the earth. So it seems we're not going to offend God if we rule the earth and the animals on it. Secondly, we are called to be good stewards of what God has entrusted us with. Contrast this with some liberal ideologies and we can find a balance with them. As good little conservatives and good little liberals we can come together on this issue with give and take. Conservatives need to lose an arrogant mentality about our dominion and liberals need to realize that we can make efforts to protect wildlife- but there is no place for PETA at this table my friends.

Let's reduce government programs and thus reduce government spending. It times of recession we must simplify. We must cut away all the fat and become lean. We must move and adapt quick. If we do not this democracy which is still very young in relation to history will become a stepping stone of China, India and the European Union.

I like what Dennis Miller said " We only have 50 states, and we've given our largest one to a pack of reindeer that couldn't make Santa's show"
