It is often mentioned in science classes as early as elementary school, and I saw a "Superman" TV series episode based on the idea: If you take a lump of coal (carbon), and place it under incredible pressure for millions of years, you get a DIAMOND (crystalline form of carbon).
Human beings are CARBON based life forms. We exhale CO2. Indeed, ALL life on Earth is CARON based. EVERY breathing animal on this planet exhales CO2. It is an absolute fact that CO2, oil, and coal are NATURAL substances. Oil and coal themselves are produced by carbon from the remains of LIFE FORMS (carbon) being placed under pressure for LONG periods of time.
That brings us to Nancy "Total Failure" Pelosi. It doesn't matter if you placed Pelosi under pressure for millions of years. You will NEVER get a diamond; you will always get SLUDGE. The woman is hopeless.
She was on "Meet the Press" on Sunday, and it was embarrassing. Several times she referred to antural gas as an ALTERNATIVE to "fossil fuels". Wrong. Not a matter of opinion. Simply FALSE. Natural Gas IS a "fossil fuel". It is a carbon based fuew just like oil and coal.
Pelosi kept saying that natural gas "burns cleaner" than "fossil fuels". Nope, It IS a "fossil fuel". It burns "cleaner" than oil or gasoline, but ONLY in terms of POLLUTANTS. CO2 is the INEVITABLE byproduct of burning fossil fuels like natural gas, and burning natural gas does NOT help ""global warming". You still get CO2, just like when our body "burns" carbon, and just like burning gasoline.
It turns out that Pelosi and her husband are actually INVESTING in T. Boone Pickens' "plan" to use natural gas to power vehicles You didn't think those commercials from CENTRAL PLANNER, Communist (as to this attempt to DICTATE a central planning "solution" to our energy problems, which is no different than STALIN'S attempt to dictate Soviet agriculture using Lysenkoism, which killed maybe 20 million people) T. Boone Pickens were ALTRUISTIC, did you?
That brings us to another Pelosi LIE (she is incapable of telling the truth--the only question being whether she knows what the truth is). Pelosi denied that she had a "conflict of interest" by investing in Pickens' plan, saying that it was a matter of the MARKET whether natural gas is used (not to mention wind power), and not a matter for Congress. As stated, that is a LIE (at least as to Pickens' plan, although that is how it SHOULD BE).
This blog has correctly told you, in exposing T. Boone Pickens for the central planning Communist that he is (whether he regards himself as a Communist or not, you can see him and Stalin getting together to "save" Soviet agriculture), T. Boone Pickens wants CONGRESS to FORCE people to adopt Pickens' "solution". That includes using taxpayer money for the WIND POWER (which would otherwise be uneconomic), AND FORCING "fleet" businesses to buy natural gas vehicles. The "market" has NOTHING to do with it. Good old boy T. Boone does NOT believe in a free market--a trait he shares with Bill O'Reilly.
As to Nancy Pelosi, the point is that Pickens SAYS that it is up to CONGRESS (Washington) to adopt his "plan". If he were relying on the free market, as Pelosi asserts and as he should be, then Washington would have nothing to do with it. As it is, Pelosi is either LLYING or TERMINALLY STUPID. With her, I think that there really is doubt as to which explanation is correct.
The above is almost surely enough (absent a truly stupid McCain choice for VP) to earn Nancy Pelosi the Flying, Fickle Finger of Fate this Saturday. But she was not through. The greater stupidities were to come.
She was asked about Obama's incredible statement that he has NO IDEA WHEN HUMAN LIFE BEGINS (above his pay grade). See last week's entries in this blog. ONLY Nancy Pelosi could be MORE STUPID than Obama on the issue.
That will be the subject of the next, or at least upcoming, entry, but I will tease you a little. Pelosi SAYS she is Catholic. She isn't. Her answer to Brokaw's question showed that she is NOT Catholic, in any real sense, and has no idea of the doctrine of the Catholic Church. More fundamentally, as I have mentioned previously as to leftists who profess a religion when the religion in which they really believe is leftism, Nancy Pelosi made clear that her position is the same as mine on God. She is just less honest (with herself and others). I am willing to state flatly: Nancy Pelosi DOES NOT CARE WHAT GOD THINKS. See that upcoming entry for how Pelosi managed to make it crystal clear that she is neither a Catholic, nor really religious at all. It takes talent to be that STUPID. It will almost surely win this week's Flying, Fickle Finger of Fate for Pelosi.
