“Hey, People, get with the program please.
Democrats favor small over big, weak over strong, short over tall, etc. It's a DNA thing. The right and wrong of the matter are irrelevant.
Remember: One important exception! Government - bigger is always better. I shouldn't have to remind you.
All for now.”
“The Clantons are camped out around Dodge and Wyatt Earp isn't allow to look at their smoke signals. Hey, they're private smoke signals. Look the other way for chrissake!”
“Someone should do a study: Take every vote in congress. Assume every legislator changed his or her mind and voted the OPPOSITE way. See what would and would not have happened. Then get back to us and let us know if things would be better or worse.
I guess better. Current politics is like the monkeys that throw darts to decide what to invest in on Wall Street.”
“Hey, you know everyone meant well, which is far more important than, like, actually solving anything. They all feel good about themselves. And of course none of them are greedy.”
“Seattle got $20 in Stimulus for a "green jobs" program - to insulate houses. It created 14 administrative jobs and insulated 3 houses. But, hey, it was well-intentioned!”
“You DO realize that there are only a few types of ENERGY and that they can all be inter-converted with realitively simple technology...
if the utilitie Companies like the KOCH Bros would allow it.”
“So how about Holland? They manage just great on their windmills and Palm Desert, Palm Springs, Banning, Beaumont, CA. President Carter put solar panels on the White House only to have President Reagan get rid of them when he took office.”
“Excellent ideas-- modern water wheels (i.e., hydropower) produce about 7% of all electricity in US and there is potential for at least 40% more. In the 20's hydro supplied as much as 40% of electricity but due to the very large capital cost has been overtaken by cheaper coal (and to lesser extent, natural gas and oil).

“They didn't have electricity back in the 12th century which is what wind would produce. We are using hydroelectric power every day which is produced by an upgraded water wheel and a dam.
“I wish politicians would change their minds more often. If every politician had voted exactly the reverse of what they did, it's possible we'd be better off.”
“NO congress will ever change the system that codifies the subsidies, loopholes, and deductions. Political power lies in the ability to write tax code. And no organism on earth gives up its power willingly. Ants, apes, bacteria, all living things share this common trait.”
