What does Obama answer for what to do with our old vehicles, if he is not going to drill for oil?

They will not run on wind,green, or any other color.





They take gas and oil.What does Obama answer for what to do with our old vehicles, if he is not going to drill for oil?
Expanding drilling is up to congress.


For 14 years in a row a Republican congress voted to continue the moratorium on new leases.


I suggest you ask them - not ObamaWhat does Obama answer for what to do with our old vehicles, if he is not going to drill for oil?
He is going to part the heavens above and a new dawn will rise and all the vehicles that are currently out there will miraculously run on air.
Mr. Birdbrain and his side are in the process of passing a bill called ';cash for junkers'; , send out vouchers of a couple hundred bucks to people to have their vehicles hauled off to junk yard. Does trying to tell us what kind of cars we can drive surprise anyone, did not surprise me, and we can once again give big thanks to Nancy Peloski, the nut job. He is not buying them, he is going to FORCE it to be done. If a person can not afford to buy their government choice of vehicle, then guess what.... mass transit, ride it every where or walk. More government control over the people, like third world countries.
Dude there are plenty to drill already. They haven't even used all the lands(out in ocean) available for drilling.





You always order 10 burgers when you can't even finish 1?
We don't need more oil, we need more refineries.

Here is a thought if we have to dispose of old vehicles and have no finances to purchase new energy efficient that is a wonderful way to keep us down trodden and bullied.
give us the hope in environmentally friendly fuel we believe in.
Once we get a number of electric cars up and running, solar energy powering our homes instead of heating oil, wind energy putting juice into the grid--we may very well be able to meet our energy needs at home, instead of being held hostage by the Middle East Oil Cartels?





Why haven't we, the nation, done this earlier? Because the Big Oil companies lined the politicians pockets to keep them from allowing alternative energy sources to be developed, and they also lined the pockets of the media to present the alternative fuel supporters as kooks.
Well you don't seem to have a very sophisticated grasp on the energy crisis or the possibilities at hand.. but just as a basic catchup with the grownups: He isn't advocating the complete abandonment of oil, or the total shutdown of all crude oil gas stations. So cars would continue to be run primarily on oil for years to come, but new cars would come out w/ alternative fuel sources, gradually weaning us off our addiction to oil and foreign domination (drilling into our own reserves is a very temporary stopgap, and he's not against it, but is against it in one particular important Alaskan oil reserve/nature preservency)





Testicles: Your logic lives up to your nickname. You don't give enough credit to the sophistication of the American voter (and that's saying a lot)
er.. we seem to have plenty...





the price just seems to go up and down because investors on wal-street are having fun...





it was like 1.20 just a few months ago here...
So what should he do? Continue to wage bush like wars for oil? You think human lives are worth less then gas for your car?





The U.S. has to catch up, bush could have spent the last 8 years on this problem but instead he focused on a war for oil to fill his own pockets with black gold. Now we have wasted 8 years, oil is running out and that is that.
Yeah, we could do with a few more refineries and we could also do with a little help from the refiners to use what they have at full capacity instead of keeping the supply low and prices up. We could also do with that thing no one likes to talk about ~ conservation. When I drive the highways in Texas, 8 out of ten vehicles are gas guzzling SUVs and pick ups. All of them with one person in them and the pick ups with clean, shiny beds. Way ';back when';, in a time that most of the posters here are too young to remember, I personally had a lot of experience driving many, many miles in Texas at the federal speed limit of 55. You know what? It's true - my gas mileage was at least 50% better. No one wants to do it. Everyone wants to have their cake and eat it too.
Recycle them is one idea. Some can be converted to run on bio-fuel. What good is a gas guzzler car when the price of gas shoots up to over $4.00 a gallon? I have seen many people leave their SUV's parked and unused for quite some time. No one would buy them with the high gas prices. Just because prices went down from July 2008 till just a couple weeks ago, they are on the rise once again. And there is a vegatation growth in the South that I heard about which is not eatable and is growing in such excess that it is theatening all the natural vegatation which also can be processed into fuel. Doing so will presever the native vegatation for future generations.


Disneyland just converted their park train to run on bio-fuel which is the oil that is left from cooking foods such as french fries. All that has to be done is to filter out any food residue for it to be usable. The technology is there and it will take time, but it will be worth it to tell OPEC to shove it where the sun don't shine. The oil companies are sitting on 68 million acres of leased land where they are NOT drilling. To drill and refine oil here and now is not in their interest. They want there to be a perpetual shortage to increase their profits as they have over the past 7 1/2 years. They just want more land to lease and keep under their control. It was estimated that it will be 10 years before any new drilling in Alaska or off our coast will even begin to produce fuel.
Do not question the messiah.
They can use plants, to drive up food prices. One of his worst plans. Fuel from plants takes more energy to make, then you get out of the fuel. It is not green no matter what he says. All of his rhetoric is garbage and lies. Cars could be easily converted to hydrogen, and stop pollution. IL farmers have paid him to use this fuel. He is a treasonous crook
Palin has a secret: Alaska has oil...A LOT


Obama's a 1 term POTUS.


Catch my drift?
Obama WANTS you to suffer financially. He HATES you. He HATES this country, he is an Indonesian citizen. He never gave up his Indonesian citizenship or passport, and his true birth certificate is still in Kenya, where it was issued.


He is an agent of the Jihad and is here to bring our country (not his) to its knees.

As for ethanol, waste fruit, waste vegetables and other biomass could be used in addition to corn, sugar beets and other crops actually grown for energy, but we are ignoring the bounty offered by cellulusoc production of ethanol.





Cars were originally designed to operate on ethanol. The main things that brought about the petroleum revolution were the low cost of refining and the control factor -- only those who owned land where the petroleum was located could make it available for consumption.


The cost of production has gone down, not up, but gasoline prices quite often rise and fall fairly independently of crude prices.


No democrat is going to solve the false oil crisis. They are largely behind it. For 50 years, they have opposed new drilling and have seen to it that no new refineries would be built on US soil, citing bombastic and mostly-false concerns about environmental issues.


Same with nuclear power, same with other areas of energy innovation. Their treachery is more easily demonstrated in how they cut and gut the military and spy forces, leaving the next administration the choice of continuing down that dark path or rebuilding at enormous cost and against horrific opposition by the democrats, who play their usual hyper-hypocritical song and dance about over-spending.





This has been in the running for a very long time, and I am afraid we are at an end.

We can all agree that Hydrogen is THE superior fuel, but there is a problem. Storing it is highly dangerous and complicated. Hydrogen is quite flammable and migrates through metal and glass at the low temperatures generated by its tendency to freeze. This same tendency would cause ice to build up on the works of the machinery in which it was used.





The other problem is that it causes a dramatic increase in the dominant ';greenhouse gas'; -- which is present in the atmosphere 30 to 100 times more than CO2 and has stronger heat absorption and transfer properties . . . Water vapor. Sorry for the cheap shot, but the greenies need to know the truth.

Making ethanol does not require the use of fossil fuels. Agricultural equipment can be run more cleanly and efficiently on ethanol, and the heat necessary for proper distillation can easily be harvested from solar power. Ethanol can also be generated from wood pulp, switchgrass, rotting vegetation, etc, etc. It does not require fossil fuels to produce.
