If we start using natural gas in cars, that 200-300 years supply drops dramatically.

How do you come to that conclusion? Given that most power plants utilize extremely precisely made turbines versus the literally millions upon millions of cars in various states of maintenance all across the country?

WOW! The UNtrustworthy are certainly in control of what information is apparent to the people!

bgamall4 -

You got the first part right. Obama was sickening. You got the second part wrong. Obama was also the idiot.

Obama was fine. Naturally right wingers didn't think so. Surprise Surprise. Nobody cares what right wingers think anyway.

Everything bgamall4 is saying is completely correct, accurate and spot-on.

If you bother to check credible sources such as the Memoirs written by the elite themselves... (David Rockefeller himself admits to a lot of stuff.)

Along with doing very objective research on major institutions (Federal Reserve, IRS, Bank of England, JP Morgan, CitiGroup, HSBC, Barclays & Many others)...

You will come to conclusion that the US is not a country but rather a CORPORATION owned by private international parties.

The "citizens" are really just subsidiaries owned by the US corporation to be slaves.

Zionism has actually very little to do with jews except using them as pawns for a vested vendetta and agenda for purely private interests. Nothing in fact to do with religion. Although they veneer as such as merely a cover.

Hitler was in fact a secret bastard-child Rothschild son. He was funded by both Rockefellers, Rothschilds and many other private parties.

Majority of jews are in fact not guilty but a minority are.

In fact, the minority of jews use the majority of jews as just tools to further their interests. Nothing more, nothing less.

The reason why jews were mass murdered in the Hitler Regime was to give a reason on why it is now morally just today for them to steal Palestinian land and murder innocent civilians to increase the land of Israel.

Also the number of mass murders of jews was exaggerated. They were many deaths but not as many as they want you to believe. You can do your own independent research on this.

Problem, Reaction, Solution

Divide & Conquer

Fund All Sides of War

Control Education and Dumb it Down to Control Future Generations

Give Women All Rights But Men None to Destabilize Family Units

Welfare Nanny State & Big Brother Government

All globalist Zionist scumbag mantras...

And guess what? They've worked excellently on all you idiots!

They are many Jews who are actually protesting against Zionism.

The common insult by close-minded sheep given to people who speak against Zionism is that they must be anti-semitic.

Bgamall4 is really being unfairly disliked without critical objective analysis and open-mindedness.

Have you done your full research? Have you really digged deep into understanding major institutions, major figures and a TRUE clear accurate view of how things really get run in this world?

My bet is you haven't.

What bgamall4 conveying is not theory but rather fact once you really have the full research and have verified everything without a shadow of any reasonable doubt.

"Conspiracy THEORY" is a common phrase used by cowards as a cheap shot to discredit.

These are Conspiracy FACTS rather once you fully do a proper objective investigative research with no bias in your mind for the conclusion to come out one way or they other.

All I have to say. Take my advice and warnings as you wish.

Just don't be shocked when Tel Aviv is the capital of a world government and RFID implantation is a requirement.

Anyway... Fuck you dumb stupid peasants.

The elite actually don't care anymore if these facts are revealed in plain sight.

Fuck... They themselves admit it. They don't care because they know your all worthless stupid dumb degenerate useless cockroaches who don't have a brain to do their own thinking and come to their own conclusions.

Let me end this by drawing up a conclusion for you...

"Zionism is righteous. Bgamall4 is a crackpot. You are free and not slaves. You can become anything in this world if you just put your mind to it. Nobody is stopping you. We want you to be successful. Formal Education and College is the key to success. Only the Mass Media is right. Everything else is not accurate. Let's Bomb Iran. They are Evil. Let's Give $3 Billion a Year to Israel... Even though that money could be used at home for the homeless and poor along with education. Guns are bad. Let's Ban all Guns. Let's allow Illegals to Roam Free in Our Country."

Now go sign up to a JP Morgan Chase Credit Card and Buy another worthless fucking iPhone even though there is hardly any if at all any difference in most previous generations...

I'm signing off now,

-David Rockefeller, Former CEO of JP Morgan Chase.

A dramatic increase in usage of natural gas will decrease the number of years of supply.

Here is an analogy that even a liberal might understand:
You have 20 apples.
You eat one per day. That gives you a 20 days supply of apples.
Instead, if you eat 2 apples per day, that would give you 10 days supply of apples.

I heard a story on the radio this morning: In North Dakota as much as 30% of the current natural gas coming out of the ground is being flared off- or burned off because there's so much of it that they simply don't have enough storage to stick it in even as more is being built. There is an absolute shit-ton of natural gas in this country.

Here's another thing to think about: Coal plants have to meet increasing emission restrictions that makes them more and more costly to operate. With Nat gas there is less emission and therfore its less costly to burn.

This isn't a liberal or a conservative argument. Its about simple mathematics and economies of scale.

Ceffer says

Obama's speech was like getting a hand job from a pickpocket.

Well at least your social life is improving...

NASDAQ up almost 2%? That must be a mistake.

Prices are up, banks are selling their REO's. What will people discover next, that the sun rises in the east?

But I thought rental income is the new economy?

So why are they selling instead of renting out?

bgamall4 says

You need to discover Sandy Hook was a Zionist Hoax

Thanks, but I think I'd rather check out my toenail fungus instead.

bgamall4 says

Wait, they are a cartel

Wait, the sun does rise in the east.

Home sales don't need to go "pending" when they're all cash:

1. Put on MLS
2. Get fifteen over-asking, all-cash offers within seconds.
3. Accept check from highest bidder.

Five... ten minutes tops.

Buy up America. Great idea. Who needs a war to take us over? How clever. I have a group of friends and colleagues working on a legislation to create limitations on foreigners buying American real estate. They are trying to raise awareness through posting on social media sites and posting articles at present. If any of you have any ideas on how to progress the movement forward, or know of any other groups involved in this issue that I could research? Schumer-Lee bill I believe to be a huge mistake. I know there are plenty of people on this site that don't give a damn about this country, its vision, the or the saving of our democratic republic. They are the heralds of the plutocracy and are only concerned with gaining wealth. I know that there are other types on this site; people who care about the common good. If you do believe in a more just government and the world that our American ancestors fought so hard to establish, please become more familiar with the selling of this country, and actively fight against it. The media is not going to spread the word, so do it yourself; in social media sites and in conversation. Write your congressperson, start a protest. We are still allowed to protest. http://robertreich.org/post/11881926504

I bet a lot of people will respond to this call for a boycott by saying, "Psssht!"

The San Francisco Bay Area has high prices as it is the home of many high paid tech workers. A couple of programmers can bring in anywhere from $180,000 to $250,000 per year. Long distance commuting is a bitch and these people with RECENT skills are in demand.

That is what drives prices so high. Jobs and employment possibilities have always driven real estate.

I moved South as it makes no sense to be retired and live in high housing cost NorCal as there are many high tech workers who can pay these prices.

That said, Obama is no liberal, not even remotely.

Someone who doesn't drink is considered being "Conservative".

Otherwise they would partake in a "Liberal" dose of hootch.

Drinking too much is considered being too Liberal.
Like the Drunks in Washington right now.

Russian nationalists skinheads don't exactly abstain from vodka...

Not that I disagree with the conclusion, but that chart is stupid. The correlation between political ideology and alcohol consumption should be done at least at the voting district level if not a finer granularity. Doing it at the state level is just crude.

Also, the research should have classified what kind of alcohol consumption is associated with each sample: beer, wine, liquor, etc.

Really, can't anyone in the press do real research anymore? Just look at how marketing companies data mine. When money is on the line, people get a lot more specific with their statistics.

CaptainShuddup says

Ah, yet another illustration of conservatives' ineptitude in reasoning.

1. Group A and group B are both composed of N people, where N is high enough to be used in a simple random sample.
2. Group A drinks more alcohol than group B.

Based on these facts, can we conclude either
3. More people in group A get drunk than people in group B.
4. The total number of drunk person-hours in group A is greater than in group B.

Anyone who isn't completely inept at logic realizes the answer is obviously no to both conclusions. Group A can easily drink more alcohol than group B, but pace themselves so that they get drunk less often (even never) than group B.

There is simply insufficient information to conclude that liberals get drunk more than conservatives based on the premise that liberals drink more than conservatives. And that is assuming the persons carrying out the study even got the definition of liberal correct, and that's a big assumption.

What a stupid thread. Many conservatives are bible thumpers who don't believe in demon rum. Duh.

Sufficient data mining could filter for that and determine if political ideology independent of religious doctrine affects alcohol consumption.

He should switch. Republican philosophy is more in line with his.

Recent news was that a serial killer did the Simpson murders. OJ sent the guy in there to get some things for him, tho, but didn't intend the killing. So he was innocent. Sort of.
OJ wanting his stuff was a recurring theme, culminating in the Vegas episode that landed him in prison for real.

Obligatory:

Is there a statistician in the house?

I draw far different conclusions from the provided graph. Only 6 data points represent low-drinking less-liberal states, and the highest consumption numbers are less-liberal as well.

The 6 low consumption conservative states are probably bible belt states with blue laws still in effect, and the graph does not reflect undocumented moonshine anyway.

No one liberal or conservative with more than 2 working brain cells is concerned with such a dumb ass study. Why are you concerned enough to post it in the first place?

Im not concerned in the least, I just think it' just plain old stupid and am amazed anyone would actually bother to bring it up. Must be a really, really slow day for the liberal bashers. BTW I'm an right leaning independent, formerly a Reagan republican until I realized I had been scammed.

From what I have observed, liberals are more likely to drink wine and microbrews while conservatives are more likely to drink hard liquor and swill americana symbol beers such as miller and budweiser, the companies which ironically aren't even american.
