And that makes it less bias, and less full of BS how? Everyone knows that controversy brings ratings, and fox lies and twists stories so much, thats it's comical to watch most of their programming. Anyone who watches fox and takes anything they seriously should be checked for a mental illness.

ANWR
What we will get from drilling in ANWR and off the coast, is just what I mentioned (With facts), absolutely nothing. This solution proposed by Bush and company will do nothing to help solve our energy problem.

Since you like fox so much, you may have seen this little tirade. Just several days ago on " Your world with Neil Cavuto",, which is supposedly fox's "Business guy", he hit the typical drill, drill, drill topic, and said that there weren't any Oil Rigs in the Gulf of Mexico (Because democrats wouldnt let us drill), I couldn't believe what I just saw. how can any network stoop so low, and lie so much just to sell a point, even when their own network contradict the points they are making, but most of the people who watch fox dont know any better, so why care?

The funny thing is that earlier in the day they had shown the path of hurricane Dolly and how it would affect the Oil rigs in the gulf. Fox is full of idiots, and is watched by idiots.

(Nice little site that is run solely to show the lies of fox, and almost always has video to prove their lies.)

You and Hal Rogers would be great friends (you may already be), you both believe in the BS of clean coal, and are still trying to sell the coal to liquid crap. What we need is energy sources that are less harmful to our environment, not more harmful. The total well-to-wheels emission rate for conventional petroleum-derived fuel is about 27 pounds of CO2 per gallon of fuel. If we used the Coal to Liquid method that rate would almost double to 50 lbs of CO2 per gallon. Wow, thats definitely the direction we need to go, and thats not counting the damage that would be done by the increased MTR mining in the region.

Big coal guys want us to believe that coal to liquid could compete with, and lower oil prices, but thats total BS too. They want U.S. taxpayers to guarantee billions of dollars in construction loans for production plants, guarantee minimum prices for the new fuel, and guarantee big purchases by the government for the next 25 years. Theres some problems though, no operating coal-to-liquid plants exist in the U.S., and researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology estimate it will cost $70 billion to build enough plants to replace 10 percent of American gasoline consumption. So they want Americans to put 70 billion into a system that is more harmful to our environment, and most likely wouldn't affect anything in the price of fuel. Scientist are telling us we need to cut our greenhouse gas emissions by 60% in 50 years, and we come up with a plan that would make things worse. IT would be stupid to invest 70 billion dollars into something worse than the current system we have. We need to be looking toward renewable fuels, not something that takes 1 ton of coal to make 2 barrels of fuel.

And I never mentioned that this was an overnight fix, or that wind and solar can power the whole country at the moment. MY major gripe is that we have wasted 8 years by devoting way to much money into fossil fuels, while we could have used some of that money to research renewable energy. Thats 8 years that we can never get back.

lol, I just realized that I had about 400 errors in that post. If you can read, and make any sense of what I said, there are some good points, if you cant, I fixed the post in the quote above. (Hopefully)
