I Thought Corn Was For Eating?

Next to turning oil into polyester so we could make clothing from it, turning food into fuel is about the dumbest thing I have personally experienced. What is really amazing is that the boys and girls in Washington, DC finally have the handle on it and are talking about rethinking the whole ethanol thing. It seems that making corn into fuel as well as the high petroleum prices may have caused a food shortage and price spikes around the world causing a lot of little munchkins and their moms and dads to literally eat dirt pies held together with butter and flavored with salt. I can hardly wait to sit down to a meal of dirt pies. Think it's not possible here? Remember you didn't think it was possible to have oil at $120 a barrel and gasoline at $3.65 a gallon headed only one direction, UP.
Can we find the source of this problem? Is it the blood for oil crowd currently in the White House? I think not. Keep in mind that we have the ability to stand off shore and take all of the oil in the Middle East any time we want to do that.
I would put the blame on the little, mean Greens. Those charming folks like to call themselves environmentalists and believe that we should all commit suicide because that would save the earth. Don't misunderstand, I believe in the charge that we are to be good stewards of the planet. No need to toss garbage all over the place. No need to pollute the land or water. But when you want to put me back into a tepee and you want to hinder technological development, then we have a problem.
Prior to leaving as Secretary of HUD, Jack Kemp noted that all the government regulations on housing had caused a 77% rise in the price of housing. This is what centralized government, also know as BIG BROTHER, does for you. And this is what is wrong with government today. We the people have allowed the government that we are suppose to control to come into our lives under the pretext of doing something good for us only to have it all go bad. Listen to the candidates. Hillary Clinton told the folks in Indiana today to put her into office so that she can wake up and think about us. Lord please help us. Problem is all of the candidates are just like her including John McCain.
As a nation and under our government we are suppose to protect minority opinions. We do that because on any given day we can find ourselves speaking forth on a minority opinion. What we don't do is protect the minority at the expense of the majority and if we do not move quickly, well those little cardigan sweaters will simply not be enough to protect us in the winter but none of us will have a weight problem because we will all be walking. Are you up for the trek to stop these fools and liars in their tracks? You are the government now let's take our country out of the hands of the professional politicians and put it into the hands of the people who have been decreed to be the ones in charge.
