That pretty much sums it up.

Sounds like something that would require laws, something anathema to you....And what's to assume any of these companies would give a shit about the pollution they cause from said poor drilling techniques as you automatically assume it's something extremely isolated.....and you didn't address anything about rock radioactivity mr wizard.

Keep yappin ankle biter.

I'm a speck of dust in the universe

my voice is meaningless.

You will get what you deserve however.

President Barack Obama, during an interview to be shown on Comedy Central, has responded to a question about his administration's confused communication after the Benghazi attack, by saying: 'If four Americans get killed, it’s not optimal.'

Obama was speaking to Jon Stewart of The Daily Show for a programme to be broadcast tonight.

Stewart, a liberal whose young audience is full of potential voters prized by the Obama campaign, asked the president about his handling of the aftermath of the Benghazi attack.

I am happy to see he was rescued. I'm blaming Obama for encouraging Arab Spring which oddly enough started two years ago today.

Today We Are Gathered … To Hear More About Me
President Obama was supposed to eulogize the memory of Sen. Daniel Inouye. Instead he told us about his favorite summer vacation.

The program's first mistake seems to have been its focus on car shredding, instead of car recycling. With 690,000 vehicles traded in, that's a pretty big mistake.

According to the Automotive Recyclers Association (ARA), automobiles are almost completely recyclable, down to their engine oil and brake fluid. But many of the “Cash for Clunkers” cars were never sent to recycling facilities. The agency reports that the cars’ engines were instead destroyed by federal mandate, in order to prevent dealers from illicitly reselling the vehicles later.

The remaining parts of each car could then be put up for auction, but program guidelines also required that after 180 days, no matter how much of the car was left, the parts woud be sent to a junkyard and shredded.

Shredding vehicles results in its own environmental nightmare. For each ton of metal produced by a shredding facility, roughly 500 pounds of “shredding residue” is also produced, which includes polyurethane foams, metal oxides, glass and dirt. All totaled, about 4.5 million tons of that residue is already produced on average every year. Where does it go? Right into a landfill.

E Magazine states recycling just the plastic and metal alone from the CARS scraps would have saved 24 million barrels of oil. While some of the “Clunkers” were truly old, many of the almost 700,000 cars were still in perfectly good condition. In fact, many that qualified for the program were relatively “young,” with fuel efficiencies that rivaled newer cars.

And though the point was to get less fuel efficient cars off the roads, with only 690,000 traded in, and over 250 million registered in the U.S., the difference in pollutant levels seems pretty negligible.

Cash For Clunkers also created a shortage of used cars. Anyone who has taken Econ 101 knows that when supply decreases in relation to demand, prices go up. The people who most often buy used cars are those with low income. In other words, Obama stuck it to the lower income earners by making used cars more expensive.

This is just the sort of fuck up you get when you put a nig-nog in the Oval Office.

^I'll agree, but I'll qualify that by saying the people the GOP throw against him lack even more luster than him.

Truth be told, both parties are giving us their third-string players.
