I recorded the President’s acceptance speech last Thursday
night as I had to give a lecture in the local library at the very same time the
President addressed his faithful supporters in Charlotte. I was worried that all I would have would be
empty chairs in the lecture room and that I would just be lecturing to an
absent president. Alas 30 people did
attend my lecture and I do hope 30 additional people realize that energy policy
cannot be based on dreams and hope.
I was particularly interested in hearing what the President
had to say about energy when he addressed his crowd of supporters, half of whom
don’t wish to allow a certain country to choose its own Capital City. Here is what the President said as reported
by the Christian Post that wishes that the same half of the President’s
supporters also wlll allow their party to invoke the name of God.
“Now you have a choice - between a
strategy that reverses this progress, or one that builds on it. We've opened
millions of new acres for oil and gas exploration in the last three years, and
we'll open more. But unlike my opponent, I will not let oil companies write
this country's energy plan, or endanger our coastlines, or collect another $4
billion in corporate welfare from our taxpayers. We're offering a better path -
a future where we keep investing in wind and solar and clean coal; where
farmers and scientists harness new biofuels to power our cars and trucks; where
construction workers build homes and factories that waste less energy; where we
develop a hundred year supply of natural gas that's right beneath our feet. If
you choose this path, we can cut our oil imports in half by 2020 and support
more than 600,000 new jobs in natural gas alone. And yes, my plan will continue
to reduce the carbon pollution that is heating our planet - because climate change
is not a hoax. More droughts and floods and wildfires are not a joke. They're a
threat to our children's future. And in this election, you can do something
about it.”
OK The president does not like the oil companies but they
can produce natural gas for 100 years and employ 600,000 more people. He has opened millions of acres for oil and
gas exploration in the past three years.
The coal companies can find ways to burn the coal cleanly using government “investment”. Farmers and scientists will harness new
biofuels for our cars and trucks. Also
there will be continued deployment of wind and solar farms. He says voting for MITsquared will reverse
this progress.
I have to say that
MITsquared will open many more millions of acres for oil and gas exploration. MITsquared will also let the oil companies
produce natural gas for the next 100 years.
MITsquared may be just dumb enough to invest in “clean coal” the
oxymoron of energy policy. MITsquared
will continue to let his rich friends at Bechtel, and First Solar make mucho
bucks on solar farms and I doubt he will stop GE from selling wind
turbines. Perhaps the only place there
may not be full congruence on idiotic energy policy may be in continuing the
folly of “new biofuels for our cars and trucks”. You
see MITsquared has an IQ one above plankton while Obama has an IQ one below
plankton. MITsquared realizes that God
never intended photosynthesis to power a quarter of billion internal combustion
engines in these Ignited States.
Had the president told the lemming on the left that wish
Israel and Exxon Mobil would disappear that the true solution to our energy
problem is sociological and not technical, I would have applauded him. Had he said it is crazy for a citizen to
drive alone to work (if there is any) in a vehicle that weighs almost 2
tons. Had he said the government will give
out 50 million free electric bicycles to get us out of our cars. Had he said that we will impose a carbon value
added tax of $10 a ton of CO2 and impose an import duty on all foreign products
based on their carbon emissions. Then I
would have actually applauded him and saluted an energy policy that may
actually have some merit. But he was the
clone of MITsquared and proposed the same policy.
The President again had a “you did not build it” moment by
poorly choosing words “My plan will continue to reduce the carbon pollution that
is heating the planet.” Literally this
means that in each of the next four years that he hopes to be president, we
will extract carbon from the atmosphere to lower the concentration of carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere. What he
should have said is “During the next four years I hope to lower the additional
carbon emissions we add to our atmosphere.
I have simply given up on pretending I can stop rising oceans or healing
the planet as I know during the next four years while I contemplate where I
will live China will emit more than 30 billion tons of carbon dioxide and will
overtake us as the largest economy.”
Ja, none of these politicos seems to understand we simply need to quit emitting, post haste. Poking more holes in our spaceship is not a good idea. Have any of their scientific advisors informed them and helped them connect the dots on of the recent findings of the Arctic Ice Shelf? Oh right, only scientists/engineers understand one another. This is part of the problem, hah? http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mon-august-20-2012/on-topic---back-to-school---science
ReplyDeleteWhat's the point of cap and trade when so many will continue emitting? Enjoy this life while we can, eh? I wonder what Alfred E. Neuman's facial expression will look like when he actually starts worrying.
Don't get me wrong about the Jon Stewart clip, as a scientist/engineer, I found it to be 'precious' and pretty ferkin' funny! I mean, for example, if you use the Rearrangement Theorem, with the proper clarifying assumptions, you can actually demonstrate 5 comes before 4. But who will find it 'believable'? Another mathematician/scientist, of course. Man, will that confuse everyone...
ReplyDeleteKim the JS link was funny but thought provoking. I liked the part with Al Gore. Also liked the open face grilled cheese part. Perhaps Obama will be interviewed next year as a private citizen by JS and he can be quizeed about various Capital Cities of Countries. He will answer that the Capital of Indonesia is Telavita a new city where there are many Java Shops with 4G hot spots. The Capital of India is New New Dehli as the old Deli got closed down because the matzoh ball soup was tasteless. The capital of Afghanistan is now KaBoom because all the bull left with the coalition forces. Of course Washington DC is no longer the capital of the USA it is now back in Philadelphia where it all started as there is simply too much corruption in DC so we decided to go back to Independence Hall with smaller government of, by, and for the people.
