I was just thinking. If we had some sort of a real national crisis, how could any rational, informed, and honest person want Biden at the helm?

Maybe I answered my own question.

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...imate-change-agenda/

A Financial Times article posted Sunday night questions former Vice President Joe Biden’s lurch to the left on energy when his record shows more support for fossil fuels than windmills or solar panels.

“He served in an Obama administration that oversaw a historic surge in American oil and gas production, as shale went mainstream. Tens of thousands of wells were drilled and energy-bearing rocks fractured from North Dakota to Texas,” the Times reported. “And the industry cheered when the government he was part of lifted a ban on crude exports in 2015.”

Now, Biden is promising an energy policy that would not only undo the current energy renaissance in the United States but one that aligns so closely with Bernie Sanders and the Green New Deal supporters that his campaign released the Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Recommendations Combating the Climate Crisis and Pursuing Environmental Justice document.

The plan, which will be aired again at the Democratic party convention this week, earmarks $2 trillion in spending over the next four years to use climate policy to drag the economy out of its pandemic-era recession. But Mr. Biden’s plans for the energy sector would reach into everything from Middle East geopolitics to the global race with China over clean tech and is likely to prove unpopular among parts of the U.S. electorate – dependent on oil and gas for jobs – in an election year.

On one hand is the status quo of Donald Trump who, as president, has proclaimed an era of American “energy dominance,” torn up rules hindering drilling, weakened environmental oversight, and taken advantage of the US’s reduced dependence on foreign supplies to impose sanctions on oil exporters from Venezuela to Iran. On the other, the green revolution proposed by Mr Biden, who has also committed to rejoining both the Iranian nuclear deal and the Paris climate accord — multilateral agreements that Mr Trump withdrew from, claiming they were bad for the U.S.

Biden’s plan “is certainly ambitious,” the Times report said. It calls the installation of tens of thousands of wind turbines, millions of solar panels and a doubling of offshore wind capacity by 2030 and some more vague promises on other green energy fronts.

“That would still leave natural gas and coal generating almost half of all power in the U.S.” come 2050, the Times reported.

Carbon capture and storage is also on Biden’s “to do” list, and would mean much more federal spending to make that goal at all possible.

And then there is Biden’s pledge during the debates for “no more fracking” — a technology that has created tens of thousands of jobs and led to U.S. energy independence.

is there anything a Biden presidency wouldn't screw up ?

Biden is going to say whatever he thinks will get him elected regardless of past positions. It’s full steam ahead and damn the torpedoes.

My personal view is that the "new green deal", also "environmental justice", has much more to do with the gov't gaining more power over our lives than it does with improving the environment or helping economically floundering nations.

Has it occurred to anyone that the Dems are hiding him in his basement because he is a fucking imbecile?

My point is, Hillary was on deaths door. Due to stroke out at any moment. The subject of her health and impending demise took over almost all conversation about her here leading up to the election, there are pages of it in those threads. And......it was nothing, completely immaterial to the outcome of the election. Seems history is repeating itself, that's all I am saying.

I couldn't agree with you more. It's *why* I asked my question. I don't take for granted at all that Biden has Alzheimer's. I remember all the latching on to Clinton's health.

>> Could it be that he is simply melting under the weight of his own low IQ under the stress of the national spotlight.

Again, my thought exactly. Whereas Trump is cool under the ridiculous and relentless pressure of the media, Biden starts stuttering, losing his composure, losing track of his mind, and getting combative. There is no way it can stand that he doesn't participate in debates.

LOL, yeah Trump is sure better at making shit up on the fly than Biden.

He's trying to post more of the same, and I know why.

Y'see, the other day in the coronavirus thread, ol' zip got told by a member that he had ruined his reputation in the forum, now and forever, with his position on coronavirus. Based upon zip's posts today (one you can see, the other you can't, but both of them are lame swipes at President Trump), it looks like he's decided to just say "fuck it" with regards to his membership in the forum. Not to mention, I handed him his ass in that thread not too long ago.

So, he's gonna pull his "John Wayne" and go out in a blaze of glory. I've seen it before, and his behavior fits the pattern.

So, I tell ya what, zip- if I'm right and that's what you really want, you come back next month and wave your little pecker at everyone here, and I'll be happy to oblige you and remove your posting rights.

Oh my!
Joe gives his personal phone number to kids.

Tap on the video to hear the sound.

These people are so detached from reality, it's not even funny. All they can do is lie.

I can't wait for November to get here.

So, I’m confused.

So it’s “racist” if we (or POTUS) call it the “Chinese virus” but that asshat Cuomo can call it the “European virus” in his speech tonight and it’s ok?



(And don’t even get me started on what a load of shit that is)

Per political correctness and the mainstream media/social media; liberals and non-whites are exempt from being called racist.

Agree...typical politician...doesnt have any desire or intention of following through on campaign promises. He'll forget he ever promised anything.

Yeah... it's gonna be a long 3 months.
I can't imagine anyone not knowing at this point which side they are on.
Trotting out John Kasich last night was pathetic. Do they really think that's going to help them convince so-called undecideds?

are you kidding me? this is the DNC wrapping up last night's shit show...
