Obama's new energy secretary seen campaigning with McCain



Yep that's right, Arny is more than likely will be Obama's new energy Czar...

Crossing party lines doesn't count when the guy is married to a Kennedy.

Great. Just what we need: an "energy secretary" who sees environmentalism as a way to boost the economy. Asshole.

I heard a rumor that I loved, the government was going to work with the oil companies that had the patents on the batteries that could make eletric cars practical now, and might work out a deal to where only US auto makers could reap the reward of the patent. That would kill japanese market shares because American car companies would shoot ahead in tech advance, instantly catipolting the US car makers back on top agian.

I love that idea, it's totally legal and it is best for America.

I agree. I think Obama's plan to turn green energy into a new industry for the United States is a brilliant idea on many levels.

I think Obama's plan is two-fold and subtle. 1. Take Arnold out of California so we can get some Democratic work done here, and 2. Get Arnold's national ambitions satisfied while having him do something serious abut energy for the whole country.

I hardly think limiting competition is whats best for america (go see the tucker torpedo for evidence of what i'm talking about) but I think deperate times call for desperate measures.

I think Cali electing a republican has more to do with the same reason why Canada elected a conservative for the Executive branch. It is what is best suited for the country, the outrageous spending over the years and the over-extended population growth has caused problems in the state. Really Arnold is just making it so you guys can afford what you got know, for example, the rising cost of prisons and the over population. Arny got rid of the weight benches and I heard sold them for scrap. You guys need a conservative to make it so all the shit you guys got now can be substained.

I wish I had the privelage to have a pro-marijuana republican as my governor...instead I get this.

You guys got mr. fucking olympian for christ sake, and he is actually good politician.

The tucker torpedo was a totally different animal, the japanese did the same thing with there car companies that I was advocating.

The government there taxed them low and in doing so they invested almost all there profits into fuel economy research. That is why they are market leaders, I am just advocating that. The government always use eminet domain if the oil companies did not fess up the patent, holding monopolies over new ideas are not in the best interest of the American people and even though they are not doing anything illegal, they are still not working in the best interest of the American people and in doing so the property over the rights of batteries could be siezed.

Re: Obama's new energy secretary seen campaigning with McCain

Hey man, i'm with you! I just expressed some reservations.

Also, I think California picked Arnie because they're not afraid to elect a smart conservative. Plus, you guys are buttarded for some actors turned politicians.

I consider the way that a particular strategy is devised before I consider an actual strategy and it's purpose. I'm an idealist, and am highly emotional, so, for me, the fact a human obligation would be determined to be a high priority (and so long after it should have been), solely on the basis that it could generate capital and therefore stimulate a smoldering economy, frankly, saddens me.

I understand it is reality, and sure, I can appreciate the opportunity. I'm not an idiot. I just wish that we could tackle such issues without separate, less admirable goals (like keeping modern Capitalism and pseudo-democracy at the forefront of the way that our society perceives a system of government).
