Obama. What Energy Plan?

Yesterday in Nevada the presumptive Democrat part nominee, Obama showed us once again that he has no clue on a comprehensive energy plan and in fact only supports what the Democrats have done for years, no exploration, no nuclear and how about a new tax on the evil oil companies.
First he criticized the nuclear plan
“"It doesn't make sense for America," Obama said. "In fact, it makes about as much sense as his proposal to build 45 new nuclear reactors without a plan to store the waste some place other than right here at Yucca Mountain," he also said I don't think it's our optimal energy source because we haven't figured out how to
store the waste safely or recycle the waste."

Fist off, Yucca Mountain is the most geologically studied piece of earth in the world and is idea for long turn waste storage. It sure is hell is a lot better than the currant plan, which is storing the waste in pools around the country at various power plant sites. As far as recycle talk to the French who have been using breeder reactors for years to do this process. We could to if it wasn’t for former President Carter getting a ban in place.

In dealing with offshore drilling Obama has the audacity to say, “any new supply would only lower prices a few cents.”
This too is complete nonsense, any drilling would have immediate effect on futures contracts and even more so once the oil started to flow into the system. Our own drilling and production of oil shale would have major impact on the worlds oil supply. These resources plus the new Brazilian field will help rest power from OPEC


Obama has also publicly stated that he would windfall tax the oil companies and use the money to provide relief to families paying their energy bills. More liberal Marxist B.S., we the working men and women will pay for any tax because what business does is pass it on.

The daily spin by the MSM sputtering the DNC talking points and making Obama sound like he has a clue will lead us to ruin if more people don’t wake up and see that what we have is a classic Marxist disguised as a progressive Democrat. I just don’t understand how the mainstream Democrat party leader can look themselves in the mirror every morning and think that this man a man who has accomplished very little in his life with a resume as thin as onion paper, who evidently is not the sharpest tool in the shed, who can’t speak without a teleprompter is in a position to be elected President of this great nation.
They must truly hate this country in their quest for power. With an empty suit like BHO they will play him like a puppet if he wins in November
