Yes, that’s an inspirational plan all right.
Perry’s campaign doesn’t even bother throwing in an obligatory wind turbine or solar panel to show half-hearted support for an “all of the above” strategy. Nope. This is Perry’s “Drills Gone Wild” fantasy.
Amazingly, this ad is being released in Iowa, a state that gets 20 percent of its electricity from wind.

Dont understand how he have passed almost a decade as a governor. This man has no eligibility to be a governor. May be my words are harsh but I am just talking about what I believe. Here is a site on him. www.rickperryreport.com. I see this site is publishing some articles on him and most of the articles are negative for Perry.

The profit motive drives the actions of the corporation and creates a mindset of competition and anything goes. Meet corporate spy and self-described predator Marc Barry as he describes his tactics for gathering intelligence from competing corporations.
Juxtapose his attitude with Ray Anderson, President of Interface, who, in an epiphanic
moment, realized he was a plunderer and it was only a matter of time before the law
figures it out. - 7 months ago

Perry-Bachmann would have the Ten Commandment stones brought back to schools and libraries! They'd have the athiests gnashing their teeth bowed down before them! Or face the wraith of the drones!
THEN THEY'D SAVE THE CLOCK TOWER. We'd have floating-in-the-air skateboards and DeLoreans and and and girls sitting in soda shops having a malted without worrying about CALORIES. HAHA

I call BS on his promise to create 2 1/2 million jobs. He implies that the "creation" will come from energy production but if cornered like the rat that he is, he would probably deny the implication. If he meant that the jobs would be in all sectors then we should ask why, if you "created" 1 million jobs in Texas, can't you "create" many more times that in the whole country.
Either way, he plans to blacken our beaches and air and introduce massive pollution into our water supply while moving us away from renewable energy.
We should ask him to donate a few quarts of the crude that's dripping out of his hair.

I think the vast majority of Americans are pro drilling, so this may be a winner for him.
Realize that most don't care about wind, solar, or climate.
Oil is here and now.
That's why Obama is approving offshore drilling and the pipeline.

I wouldn't say that! People love the idea of Wind, Solar, Tides! It's very romantic. They've been swallowed up by negative ads funded by billionaires not yet ready to cut the umbilical cord to oil, that's all => the ads that keep droning on & on how puny an energy the Sun sends us, how far off into the future it will be. So the coming Election belongs to oil through the usual subterfuge tactics.
Anyway, men love the sound of a 240 horsepower whatcha'ma'callit coming out two exhaust headers so it will take a few generations yet to work that out of their jeans.

Nevertheless ...
Most Americans don't believe in alternative energy.
That's why our POTUS finds no need to move in this direction.

It is pretty stupid of him. But then, it is also what he is being paid to do.

Wind generated power is a great thing, too bad PETA fights it tooth and nail. You know those birds are not as dumb as PETA thinks... you won't find dead birds and other wildlife around those wind turbines... but PETA files suit against them anyway.
The Sierra Club is against hydro power. Damn those dams.

There's a windmill design I've figured out I'm right sure it will develop a vortex that pulls birds & bats past the blades. I'll get it touch with my buddy T. Boone Pickens soon and we'll hash out the details.

The technology exists to deter birds and bats from wind turbines, sort of like the silent (to humans) whistles to scare deer away from moving vehicles.
Greens living in Hawai'i are against geothermal electricity for irrational reasons as well.

I just get so frustrated with both sides. Development of alternative energy forms is so important. But we have environmentalists, and conservationists, and animal rights activists obstructing the development just as much as the fossil fuelers, it makes me want to scream.
