Dec 19th 2007 1:29PM I drove one of these on the freeway while they visited the Electric Vehicle Association San Diego. http://EVorBust.blogspot.com .

Supporting the troops who call for higher CAFE standards {Autoblog Green}
Nov 9th 2007 8:41PM That's my rational for converting to an EV.
1 penny going to countries that hate us is too much for me.
Gasoline will still be a necessity for my situation, but the more I travel without using oil, the less bullets I'm buying for our enemies to kill our kids with...
It would be nice if I could go to the any gas station and pay $5.00 or whatever mark-up per gallon of terrorist-free gasoline.

Any interest in a 1000 horsepower E85 turbocharged Viper? I thought so {Autoblog Green}

"You people"? If you mean Americans, than yes some of us would like to dialogue for peace while some of us would rather just take over any oil producing country.
My Iraq comment was to highlight where and whom we should be fighting instead of the American vs. American name-calling you revel in.
I consider conservatives and liberals as equals in caring about the environment both with good and dumb ideas, but overall on the same team.
I actually agreed with some of what you said, just took offense with how you said it.
I used the "abrasive man" definition from urbandictionary.com for the d word.
You seem ok in calling people wacko who don't agree or vote as you do.
So, abrasive vs. crazy, you decide if either is constructive.
As to arguing your points.
"I was wondering if you really are cutting back on emissions with E85. Does it burn cleaner? I don't know."
Yes it is cleaner.
"I thought we cared about the little people?"
Rhetorical
"Corn is also hard on the soil....If farmers are encouraged to compromise this to supply the demand, then what?"
...cellulosic ethanol...
"Environmentlism has evolved from a religion into a cult. Quit worhshiping Al Gore and his high priests and get some real facts."
Fact: Pres. Bush calls for increased use of corn ethanol in his State of the Union address. (sotu2007.pdf)Bush=wacko-lib?
"Andrew says we shouldn't have fun."
Andrew said:
"To TRULY be kind to the environment we have to understand that we can't simply consume for enjoyment anymore, and that when we DO consume, we minimize it."
"I feel a little elitism of my own coming on. Since I don't drink coffee anyway, I dictate that we ban coffee makers. They require emissions to make them and the coffee farmers should be growing CORN anyway!"
pretty good attempt at satire
"So how many of you hypocritical, enviro-wacko libs out there just blew a vein?"
I must have (jest). As yours was the 1st comment to lump the previous posters with accusations of hypocrisy,and poor fact checking while igniting the blue vs. red culture war by invoking Gore/liberal insults.
"So you're worried about conspicuous consumption are you? Let's examine your beloved windmills shall we?"
Couldn't find previous post re. windmills. Was this a straw-man argument?
"Another shinning example of the negative results of this intellectually inept, reality challenged, "it's man's fault" global warming movement. Or should I say bowel movement. All so you enviro wackos can get your fuzzy warm fix."
Satire?More name calling of growing number of people that now includes Pres. Bush regarding climate change caused by people.(sotu2007.pdf)
"Most rich people are rich because they work their butts off Scatter, and they deserve it. Does your disdain for the jet set include your lovable tree hugging, "save the environment" types like Al Gore, Laurie David, and Ariana Huffington? Probably not. They consume more fuel on one world saving trip than I could possibly burn in 2+ yrs. in my V8 SUV."
This was directed to Scatter but I'll jump in:
It all depends if Gore, David, or Huffington are offsetting their non-tree-hugging ways with green ones.
Your subsequent comments seemed non-provocative to us wacko-liberals.
Your friend in Christ.
