How gas conservation will raise gas prices!
 
Friends,

Barack Obama claims that efficiency is the largest and fastest domestic source of oil. This statement betrays his hatred of God.

GOD is the largest and fastest domestic source of oil, in fact, He is the ONLY source of oil, and of all of technological civilization.

When you burn gas, you are saying to God "Thank you, Lord, for providing me with the gift of oil. I appreciate it, and am enjoying it to the last drop, Amen."

Think of it like a meal. If you cook a meal for someone, and they eat it all with gusto, you are encouraged to continue being generous. But if someone takes a little bite, then says they'll save the rest in the freezer, you would be insulted, and would not want to make them another meal. Well, that's what these hook-nosed elitists are trying to do: to insult God's generosity, and deny His bounty.

Worse, the specific proposals that the oil-industry-persecuting ultra-liberal superelite have in mind cleary show their true agenda:

Public Transportation: Also known as "communism" public transportation is far less efficient than cars, the only reason the hook-nosed liberals like this is because their have a homosexual obsession with the smooth, shiny, penis-shaped trains and buses. Would you allow your son to "ride" on THIS:

Oh, and don't forget, they crash. Ever heard of a fatal car crash on the news? Yet we hear about fatal train and bus crashes all the time. I rest my case.

Organic farming

One word: dirt. That's right: "organic farming" is nothing but a pretty word for food grown in dirt. And do you know why dirt is brown? Because it's worm-poop!

Not even the respectable dog-poop one can find on a suburban lawn, but WORM-POOP!

Oh, and once again, their true agenda is homosexual: these perverculture farmers want everyone to have vegitable gardens in their backyards, and little family farms all over the place. Where children might come across them. Now why would they want that? Well, take a look at the objects one can find in these "gardens":

Do you want YOUR daughter to lose her virginity to a root-vegetable? Do you want your son to learn to enjoy putting juicy cylinders into his mouth? The liberals do!

Brother Jeb, your post made me think of this article that I read yesterday in the Wall Street Journal:

San Francisco Ponders: Could Bike Lanes Cause Pollution?
City Backpedals on a Cycling Plan
After Mr. Anderson Goes to Court
By PHRED DVORAK
August 20, 2008

SAN FRANCISCO -- New York is wooing cyclists with chartreuse bike lanes. Chicago is spending nearly $1 million for double-decker bicycle parking. San Francisco can't even install new bike racks Blame Rob Anderson. At a time when most other cities are encouraging biking as green transport, the 65-year-old local gadfly has stymied cycling-support efforts here by arguing that urban bicycle boosting could actually be bad for the environment. That's put the brakes on everything from new bike lanes to bike racks while the city works on an environmental-impact report.

Cyclists say the irony is killing them -- literally. At least four bikers have died and hundreds more have been injured in San Francisco since mid-2006, when Mr. Anderson helped convince a judge to halt implementation of a massive pro-bike plan.(It's unclear whether the plan's execution could have prevented the accidents.) In the past year, bike advocates have demonstrated outside City Hall, pushed the city to challenge the plan's freeze in court and proposed putting the whole mess to local voters. Nothing worked.

"We're the ones keeping emissions from the air!" shouted Leah Shahum, executive director of the 10,000-strong San Francisco Bicycle Coalition, at a July 21 protest. WSJ's Phred Dvorak reports from a Critical Mass event in San Francisco, a monthly bike ride that draws hundreds of cyclists. She talks with bikers as well as disgruntled drivers. Mr. Anderson disagrees. Cars always will vastly outnumber bikes, he reasons, so allotting more street space to cyclists could cause more traffic jams, more idling and more pollution. Mr. Anderson says the city has been blinded by political correctness. It's an "attempt by the anti-car fanatics to screw up our traffic on behalf of the bicycle fantasy," he wrote in his blog this month.

Mr. Anderson's fight underscores the tensions that can circulate as urban cycling, bolstered by environmental awareness and high gasoline prices, takes off across the U.S. New York City, where the number of commuter cyclists is estimated to have jumped 77% between 2000 and 2007, is adding new bike lanes despite some motorist backlash. Chicago recently elected to kick cars off stretches of big roads on two Sundays this year.
Famously progressive, San Francisco is known for being one of the most pro-bike cities in the U.S., offering more than 200 miles of lanes and requiring that big garages offer bike parking. It is also known for characters like Mr. Anderson.

A tall, serious man with a grizzled gray beard, Mr. Anderson spent 13 months in a California federal prison for resisting the draft during the Vietnam War. He later penned pieces for the Anderson Valley Advertiser, a muckraking Northern California weekly owned by his brother that's known for its savage prose and pranks.

Running for Office
In 1995, Mr. Anderson moved to San Francisco. Working odd jobs, he twice ran for a seat on the city's Board of Supervisors, pledging to tackle homelessness and the city's "tacit PC ideology." He got 332 of 34,955 votes in 2004, his second and best try. That year Mr. Anderson, who mostly lives off a small government stipend he receives for caring for his 92-year-old mother, also started a blog, digging into local politics with gusto. One of his first targets: the city's most ambitious bike plan to date.

Unveiled in 2004, the 527-page document was filled with maps, traffic analyses and a list of roughly 240 locations where the city hoped to make cycling easier. The plan called for more bike lanes, better bike parking and a boost in cycling to 10% of the city's total trips by 2010. The plan irked Mr. Anderson. Having not owned a car in 20 years, he says he has had several near misses with bikers roaring through crosswalks and red lights, and sees bicycles as dangerous and impractical for car-centric American cities. Mr. Anderson was also bugged by what he describes as the holier-than-thou attitude typified by Critical Mass, a monthly gathering of bikers who coast through the city, snarling traffic for hours. "The behavior of the bike people on city streets is always annoying," he says. "This 'Get out of my way, I'm not burning fossil fuels.' "

Going to Court
In February 2005, Mr. Anderson showed up at a planning commission meeting. If San Francisco was going to take away parking spaces and car lanes, he argued, it had better do an environmental-impact review first. When the Board of Supervisors voted to skip the review, Mr. Anderson sued in state court, enlisting his friend Mary Miles, a former postal worker, cartoonist and Anderson Valley Advertiser colleague.
http://s.wsj.net/public/resources/im...0819203635.jpgRhonda Winter/San Francisco Bicycle Coalition San Francisco cyclists protest bike-plan delays in front of City Hall. Ms. Miles, who was admitted to the California bar in 2004 at age 57, proved a pugnacious litigator. She sought to kill the initial brief from San Francisco's lawyers after it exceeded the accepted length by a page. She objected when the city attorney described Mr. Anderson's advocacy group, the Coalition for Adequate Review, as CAR in their documents. (It's C-FAR.) She also convinced the court to review key planning documents over the city's objections.

Slow Pedaling
In November 2006, a California Superior Court judge rejected San Francisco's contention that it didn't need an environmental review and ordered San Francisco to stop all bike-plan activity until it completed the review. Since then, San Francisco has pedaled very slowly. City planners say they're being extra careful with their environmental study, in hopes that Mr. Anderson and Ms. Miles won't challenge it. Planners don't expect the study will be done for another year. Meanwhile, Mr. Anderson and Ms. Miles have teamed up to oppose a plan to put high-rises and additional housing in a nearby neighborhood. He continues to blog from his apartment in an old Victorian home. "Regardless of the obvious dangers, some people will ride bikes in San Francisco for the same reason Islamic fanatics will engage in suicide bombings -- because they are politically motivated to do so," he wrote in a May 21 post. "In case anyone doubted that you were a wingnut, this statement pretty much sums things up!" one commenter retorted.

Mr. Anderson is running for supervisor again this November -- around the time the city will unveil the first draft of its bike-plan environmental review. He's already pondering a challenge of the review.
Leave it to San Francisco to let a renter, someone with nothing invested in their city, to try to dictate city policy.

Re: How gas conservation will raise gas prices!
 
I am deeply moved by your post, Brother Jeb. From now on I am going to offer a prayer before I turn the key in my ignition. I encourage all True Christians™ to join with me in offering a prayer, much like we do before celebrating meals, every time we use our cars.

Dear Lord, thank you for your blessed hydrocarbons and the oil which you have so graciously bestowed upon us.
Bless the hands of Exxon/Mobile your humble servants for their fractional distillation.
Bless it to our use and us to your service in our swift and powerful vehicles.
Praise Oh Lord, for sparing us the ignominy and disgrace of public transportation.
Through Christ our Lord we pray. Amen.

PROOF: Criminals are conspiring to persecute Patriotic ("gas guzzling") car owners!
The Highway Loss Data Institute is out with new stats on which vehicles are most likely to be stolen. Bottom line? One out of every 100 Cadillac Escalades get stolen — and nobody steals the Toyota Prius...
...10.8 Escalades out of every 1000 insured vehicle years is stolen. To put that stat in a more easy-to-digest number — that's one out of every 100.

The 'sclade is followed in this years report by the Ford F-250 crew-cab pickup, the Infiniti G37, and Dodge Chargers equipped with a HEMI engine. Theft rates for these vehicles are three to five times as high as the average for all vehicles.

"Sedate family cars and fuel sippers aren't on the hot list," says Kim Hazelbaker, HLDI senior vice president.
If we conserve gas, we're letting the car theves win!

Okay, so I guess that proves that even the car thieves have taste. Although I am wondering why they go after the F250 and not the F350. Then again mine is diesel, so I would hear it start up in a second, and having a couple of Rotts come tearing at you because they think mom is going for a car ride without them.

When I lived up in Canukistan, many people complained about my vehicle and told me I was ruining the earth. Well you tell me how I'm supposed to fit a bunch of kids, dogs, equipment etc into a Prius. They don't even have a roof rack I could strap the kids to if I wanted to. I can't pull the dog trailer, a Prius is an absolutely useless vehicle unless you're a single latte sipping liebral who loves the smell of his own farts.

Once again Brother Thurmond clarifies the issue with Godly erudition.

Oil is dead animals mostly. Every time we burn a petroleum product we are doing what Abel did and we know how much God love the smell of burning animals. Every time I fire up the Hummer the Lord gets to savor the sweet smell. It is like perfume to our Lord. The more the better!

Bio fuels anger the Lord. Look how much Abel's burned animals pleased him and how Cain's measly vegetables angered him. Everyone knows that vegetables are what food eats. Meat is merely concentrated vegetables and oil is concentrated meat with some vegetables built is.

If we drop out MPG to under 10 MPG gas prices will fall and Jesus would smile.

Burn some rubber for the Lord!

Not to worry. My classic car with its large V-8 engine will be ready next week so I will do my part to use gasoline.

Here is a list of most stingy and most Godly greedy guzzler cars.

Sadly there is only one American car on the Godly greedy guzler list and that in the Maybach and those are the cars that Negro pimps drive.

Even the Esacaldes are not the Godly guzzlers they once were. Thanks Osambo.:thumbdown:
