McCain chides Obama over school vouchers
It seems that Obama wants NO change in this area. The same old solution by teacher unions and public schools. Gee, I wonder why Obama never went to public school?
"My opponent talks a great deal about hope and change, and education is as good a test as any of his seriousness," he said. "If Sen. Obama continues to defer to the teachers unions instead of committing to real reform, then he should start looking for new slogans."Comment

As did McCain. And McCain has shifted positions not just on drilling, but on other issues as well. He was against it until about a month ago, now he is for it. He was for campaign finance reform (in fact passed a bill with his name on it) now he is against it. He was for immigration reform, now he is against it. He voted against MLK holidays several times, now he is OK with it.
And so it goes.
In the end I think these are the most superficial of attacks, for either side. So what we are saying is that regardless of changing circumstances or new information one must NEVER change their position for fear of being labeled a "flip-flopper" (thank you Karl Rove).
Personally I prefer people who can think, analyze information, and if necessary change their minds based on new information.Don't get me startedComment

Yes I know
McCain shifted....dah,
I am just waiting until Pelosi has too allow the vote.
Obama is great compared to her....what is the Congressional rating now 10% approval?

Again, this is a silly issue. Yes, we will need to drill all our resources, but thinking that it will ave any short term impact on prices shows a fundamental lack of understanding of how this works.
Let me remind you that they are just now (2007) starting to produce resources from offshore blocks that I worked on 25 years ago!!
Congress has a low rating to be sure. But it is shared blame. The Democrats lack the necessary majority to get anything done and the Republicans have consistently blocked their efforts by use of the filibuster. I think people are tired of the BS from both sides.Don't get me startedComment

To hell with drilling, digging, and the dumbness of the masses, insanity is doing the samething over and over and expecting different results....Nuclear, Wind, solar and Hydro energy is all we need case close.Samuel Johnson - “An injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere.” William Cooper "listen to everything, read everything, and believe nothing unless you can prove it in your own research!"Comment

I agree, but the USA uses 570,000,000,000,000 Watts (570 Gigawatts) of electric power, 1/2 is powered by coal. A wind generator only produces 1.5MW, enough to power 400 homes. No nuclear plants have been built since the 3 mile island accident in the 70's, due to new goverment regulations. We are a long ways from not needing coal as a power source and expect your electric rates to drastically increase to reduce our using an abundant power source with dirty emissions. IMO, this is why we are in a pollution mess.Last edited by ReddyWatts; 08-02-2008, 01:00 PM.ReddyWatts fleet photo

Reddy I agree, but the masses don't realize nuclear power have killed few people in comparison to collateral casualties of fossil fuels(is all based on fear and no research)...I'd rather live within a mile of a nuclear plant than within 10 miles of an oil refinery or coal burning plant.

I sure wish the plants here were nukes, we have coal burners every 15-20 miles up and down the Ohio river. Better yet, shut them all down except for what we need here localYou guys can build your own.

I'd love to build my own Nuclear power plant, aero plant, hydro plant, solar plant anything but a damn oil or coal plantSamuel Johnson - “An injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere.” William Cooper "listen to everything, read everything, and believe nothing unless you can prove it in your own research!"Comment
