Ha! What a joke.
Finally, today polls are coming out that show that HRC is loosing the confidence of many, if not most people based on her Bosnia sniper fire story (among others). But is appears the sniper fire story is the proverbial nail in the coffin of American's trust in her. Like her campaign, Americas trust in her should have been buried long ago.

Teen Girls Beat others
I just read today that the girls who beat the other girls in FL may get life sentences.
I say good for the prosecutors. It may seem a little harsh -- but I say it is just. Besides they will get parole in a few years probably anyway. But a statement to the teens in our country needs to be made that this kind of behavior is unacceptable. If the girls just get their hands slapped, then we will see more and more of this.

The Clean Energy Scam
So I was driving around doing some errands last week and decided to tune in to Rush. He was spouting off about how the biofuel craze was driving up the cost of food and causing famine in some 3rd world countries.
Now of course I take everything Rush says with a bucket of salt. I used to think he was cool in High School, but my political mindset has changed over the years.
Anyway, I came across this article in Time talking about how Clean Energy is some cases actually costs more than then energy required to produce it. For example it has been quoted elsewhere that it takes 1.2 gals of gas to produce 1 gal of Ethanol from corn. If that truly is the case, then we need to rethink how to address the energy crisis. On the other hand, the article says that not all clean energy is bad -- for example it takes less energy to produce ethanol from Sugar as is done heavily in Brazil.
Just something to think about when you are hearing/talking about green/clean energy. We need to make sure that the energy really is green/clean and doesn't just divert attention from the true cost of that energy.
