    ...big difference between the US paying for a fence to be installed 10 years ago vs putting up a fucking 20 foot wall and trying to make Mexico pay for it.

    ...gotta love the editing.

    dumbfounded looks PRICELESS....says it all...



    "1,000 points of light......stay the course.....a thousand points of light"....


    Old SNL POTUS videos are far more entertaining, and politically insightful than the bs we see today w/Chump & Hillary....1 is pure parody/comdedy, the other is pure bs/comedy that's supposed to be reality, supposed to be, key words....

    I don't know if anyone remembers him but the best political impressionist I ever heard was a guy named David Frye during the 60s.

    Frye: the man matched facial expressions, speech patterns, and moves to complete superior impersonations.

    My Grandfather owned a Coal Mine in Summersville West Virginia, his sons worked that mine, I used to ride the mule pulled cart into that mine. Screw Hillary, I respect the miners and often wonder where that plan to export coal in the mid- eighties went.

    Don Williams, love that mans music.

    Coal puts out a helluva lot less greenhouse gases than natural gas....

    coal produces carbon dioxide, while gas & livestock release methane, which is much more a problem for the atmosphere than coal....

    then we got fracking, get gas back down to 1980 prices, then close over 68,000 fracking pumps, and other oil wells, create the shortage once again- manipulate the cost at the pumps, and we're being sold down the river, by a manipulative govt. in bed with The U.S. of Exxon/Shell....

    Back in the late Eighties I was stationed at Fort Lee Virginia. Big news then was that the US, with more coal than anyone was going to develop a system where the coal mined from Kentucky and West Virginia was to be placed on special trains then taken to Norfolk, loaded on ships and exported. The system was pretty sophisticated but I guess it never got done. I remember my grandfather heating his house with coal without any problems. Seems like there is always some dickhead who knows more about product than the ones who actually work it.

    Matts....the frackers needed a reset because they were too cozy at $45/barrel and we weren't seeing anymore innovation. OPEC turning open the spigots to $30/barrel is gonna drive the posers out and the real engineers back in the driver's seat.

    CO2 not a long term problem, synthetic biology driving towards innovative mechanisms to transform it into more suitable chemicals.
