If Greenpeace is against it, then America should be for it.
Seriously, though – the US is the Saudi Arabia of coal. We should be working at making coal cleaner and using our natural resources and *not* wasting huge government subsidies on immature technologies like Wind power. See the latest article in IBD about how Germany, Italy and the UK are realizing that wind power and other alternative energy sources are not what they’ve cracked up to be. These green-friendly countries are going back on their word to reduce CO2 emissions and stop building coal-fired plants. Germany is bringing something like 20-40 new plants online, realizing there is no point in killing their economy over CO2 (which, btw, is not a pollutant — it’s plant food, for goodness sakes). Alternative energy will have its place sometime in the future, but right now its an idea that just isn’t mature enough. It’s like trying to force the gov’t to develop flying cars. Sure, it would be cool, but just b/c we can throw gov’t money at it doesn’t mean we should…

Why don’t yall move to coal country? Or move next to a coal burning electrical plant? My family lived in coal country at one time, eastern Kentucky to be specific. They wanted a better life so they joined the Army.

One day, there won’t be anymore coal. Keep all your TVs on all the time; the future generations are sure to thank you for it.

Thank you, Verizon. Wish I was there! What a worthy cause. Obama & the Dems can’t fool all the people all the time.

Free expression is a two-way street. Ted Nuget can say whatever he wants and Verizon can sponsor his statements if they believe that being the only cell phone company sponsoring the event will help their bottom-line, but every American has the right to express their opinions on the matter. It is freedom OF expression not freedom FROM expression.

This is great news. I know which cell phone carrier I should use if I ever decide I need one.

Gosh,let’s hear it for the right of free expression,unless,I suppose,it disagress with the enviro-socialist movement.If SEIU can support the socialized medicine proposals of the president without upsetting you,why can’t Verizon,Ted Nugent or anyone else express a point of view that runs counter to yours?Are you afraid of free expression?

I for one have no respect for anything Greenpeace endorses, when they were involved with the K G B back in the soviet days of Russia. Oh well , I guess the end justifies the means in watermelon environmentalism.
