Following RW - nut thought patterns:
*Environmentalists oppose drilling in the ANWR;which, after years, will produce a tiny fraction of the US consumption. This will not effect fuel prices, but the wing nuts think it will.
*Environmentalists insist that oil refineries NOT recklessly dump pollutants into the environment --- this costs corporations $$$$, thus they pass it on to us.

13. The stupidity of it is just astounding. |
|
And yet they support pointless oil wars that allow corporations to jack up the prices as they consolidate the market?
Unreal.

2. So the Honda driver is volunteering his home to site a refinery? |
|
Of course not. How silly of me to let reason get in the way of such proud hypocrisy.

7. I live in Pasadena Tx, I saw this a mile from my house |
|
Pasadena is on the Houston ship channel. The big industry here is the petro chemical industry.

They love to blame the enviromentalists. But in the end, they're just a bunch of NIMBY's (Not In My Back Yard).

12. Keep in mind, any one who does not follow the repubs blindly is a |
|
terrorist. Just listen to Rush, he'll tell you. We've got eco-terrorists, teachers are terrorists, and liberals, and democrats, and protesters, and judges, and so on and so on.
I think you had every right to run this idiot off the road. Claim there was a bee in the car.

That bumper sticker will have a whole new meaning when gas hits about $3.50. Then I guess he really will want to thank the Environmentalist.
