As much as I really am interested in going to such an event, it is too
far and too short, yet this information is worth posting.

If you've seen the ads on KNLC-TV (Channel 24), a Renewable Energy Fair
will take place in New Bloomfield, MO on January 15, 2006.

The bad news is whoever planned the event did not explain a whole lot
of detail. More than likely, programming directory Rev. Larry Rice did
not really think about anyone except for the poor people--wait, that's
right! Poor people have no way of getting there!!!

The people who announced the far do not have the money to even do this
fair in the nearest city, Jefferson City. Like Matt Blunt is going to
drive out to this thing. The only way he's going is if his brother and
his dad go.

Come to think about it, for a Gen-Xer, he's pretty lame.

That guy is a product of the establishment. If he doesn't start
growing a brain and get his head out of the Bible, he's going to be
another George W. Bush.

Blunt needs to escape the "Rich-people Bubble" of this part of the
state and do something interactive with the middle class. Not the
upper-middle class! Not the lower-middle class. White-collar Joe Blow
from the boondocks. Sucking up to rich people and doing photo-ops with
poor people is a bunch of lies and BS.

Blunt needs to get out more. He needs to go to that event. He needs
to encourage more events like it in the metropolitan areas where we use
the most energy.

Why go to New Bloomfield when this thing can be in St. Louis or Kansas
City?

Larry Rice has his heart in the right place. Did Rice organize this,
or just run the ads? I seldom watch 24 because reception is shit
unless you have cable, which I don't.

Rice is like the scarecrow, Blunt's like the tin man, and you're right
to the overwhelming majority of Missouri's poor New Bloomfield might as
well be OZ.

Blunt is a lot like Bush, only not so dumb.

Lies and BS are what gets Republicans votes among middle income people.

Blunt doesn't care about renewable energy except for ethanol, and then
only because of the Farm Bureau. Surely the Rapture will come before
we run out of fossil fuels.

If not in StL or KC, then up north, in the corn producing area. Then
Blunt'd have to show up. Too many corn farmers would stay home on
election day otherwise, and some'd even vote for a Godless Democrat
like Jay Nixon. By the way, Nixon is a Christian, as is Reverend Rice.

Personally, I'd rather see Nixon going for US Senate and Claire go
after the governorship again. I think Nixon could beat Talent, now
that he's got such a great reputation as a tough-on-crime Democrat.
He's won statewide office a few times in a row now, and I think that US
Senate seat is the more important race. Blunt has seeming lost a bit
of ground among swing religiously motivated voters with his draconian
policies toward "the least among us," and his squishy, sort-of support
for stem cell research--and I'm giving him credit for that even though
he might well be primarily motivated by politics, rather than real
concern for Missouri's economy--have made him seem like a bit less of a
"true believer" to the religious extremists, and could possibly provoke
an unsuccesful but damaging primary challenge from the far-Right.
The 18-25 vote will be crucial, both in '06 and '08, and there's a lot
of opposition among that group to Bush and the GOP in general. The
current 16-18 population will be voters in '08, and I doubt there'll be
much of a primary challenge to Hillary. If she picks Gov. Richardson
as a running mate, who could the GOP put up against them, McCain? They
won't do that, even though he'd be their strongest candidate. GOP
primary voters will again reject him as not being Republican enough for
their tastes.
Sec. Rice has little support among Blacks or conservatives. Frist is
toast.
Our relationship with nearly every country in the world has been
strained by the Bush presidency; the only country we haven't pissed off
is China, who we have a huge trade deficit with. In fact, we've
outsourced most of our manufacturing jobs to that very country, the
largest country (by population) in the world, a country that has
transitioned from horrifyingly fake Communism to Fascism with almost no
revolutionary component, not even the brief hint of Democracy we saw in
Russia, which seems to be eroding under the leadership of Bush's friend
Putin.

I wrote this last night, a bit drunk. I'll just post it now.

Blunt is a lobbyist for Ameren UE. The less the public knows about
renewable energy, the more profits for Blunt. I've lived in Missouri
all my life and know the state's towns quite well, but do not know
exactly where New Bloomfield is.

Blunt recently stated he'll use state tax dollars to bail out Ameren UE
for the costs associated with the catastrophic failure of the Upper
Taum Sauk Reservoir. This is no surprise considering Blunt is a
lobbyist for Ameren UE.

One worry was Ameren UE would increase electric bills to pay for the
costs.

The proper solution: pay for the costs of cleanup, damage settlements,
etc, with the money of the CEO and other high-ups at Ameren UE.
Garnish all dividends to pay for the costs. Fact: the vast majority of
dividends go to large shareholders (usually the high-ups at the
company). The high-ups are negligent for approving the use of inferior
fill material which caused the reservoir breach.

Under no circumstances should Ameren UE be allowed to rebuild the upper
reservoir. It should be abandoned.

Pumped storage is inefficient. A high percentage of the energy is used
to move the water back uphill during off-peak hours. The plant
accounted for less than 5% of Missouri energy use. If we all used 5%
less electricity, we wouldn't notice the absense of the plant.

Blunt is also known for his anti-environment stance, slashing the DNR.
Blunt doesn't care that the breach destroyed Johnson's Shut-Ins State
Park, a facility run by the DNR.

Blunt has the worst stances on any issue. He has the bad "right-wing"
attitudes: anti-environment, pro-big-corporations, etc. He has the bad
"left-wing" attitudes also: pro-stem-cell-research, pro-abortion, etc.
Missouri Right to Life announced they don't support Blunt.

Blunt should be impeached/recalled.

Another traitorous Republican who favors abortion, stem cell research,
and huge amounts of taxpayer funding for stem cell research: John
Danforth. Note Danforth is related to Chancellor Danforth of Wash U.
Wash U gets literally billions of taxpayer dollars in the form of
research grants in which complete human beings are tortured and killed
in the name of "stem cell research".

As to renewable energy, Larry Rice has given out solar water heaters to
poor people in the past. I've read that windmills are more feasible in
the western part of the state where there's more open space for wind to
gain momentum.

OK, up to here I agree. Why am I not surprised that you then go to
sounding like the nutcase we all know you to be?

Idiot. Blunt CAN'T slash the DNR. They are funded by a sales tax he
has no control over.

Blunt is NOT pro-abortion. If MRtL is withdrawing it's support, it's
because they are extremist nutcases (like you), who see little
difference between the morning after pill and infanticide.

I dislike him more than you do, but he hasn't committed impeachable
offenses, just morally unjustifiable actions like removing vulnerable
people from Medicaid.

I'd think John Danforth a decent fellow if he denounced Bush and said
he regretted shepherding Uncle Thomas onto the Supreme Court.

"Complete human beings," eh? A ball of cells that has yet to even
develop a neural tube is a complete human being? You are a retard.

You're the idiot. One of Blunt's first acts was to slash the DNR,
firing many people in the DNR and eliminating the positions.

Typical of a pro-abort to fail grade school English.

You can't assume you dislike him more than I do. Do you favor Blunt's
execution of the innocent Marlin Gray? I was one of many who contacted
Blunt, telling him to pardon Gray, posting all kinds of evidence he's
innocent. Given your disregard of human life (fetii), you probably
favor the execution of innocent people, especially the execution of
innocent nonwhite men.

The environment, abortion / stem cell research, and the death penalty.
That's three issues where I dislike Blunt more than you do. Looks like
I dislike Blunt even more than you do.

The typical fetus a week after conception has more brain power than you

I'm sure he put environmentally hostile fellow Republicans in whatever
appointed posions he could, but DNR is funded by the 1/8 cent sales
tax, divided equally betweed DNR and MO Dept. of Conservation..

Extraneous apostrohes are rare in my writing. My grammar is far better
than Usenet standard. Again, Blunt is not "pro-abortion."
I think the best way to reduce abortions is to reduce unwanted
pregnancies.

Fetus? "A week after conception" there is no "fetus."
"In humans, the unborn young from the end of the eighth week after
conception to the moment of birth, as distinguished from the earlier
embryo."

A funny quote from alt.punk:
"There are a couple of sets of identical twin girls here at work. It
occurs to me that the fundies think that God puts a soul into each
fertilized egg at conception. Well, what happens when that zygote
twins? That one soul has to do for two people, right? Unless,
ohmygod, one of the twins gets the soul, and the other is walking
around soulless. Too creepy. I wonder how He decides which twin gets
the soul. "

It gets worse with triplets.

What about chimeras? They're formed from the combining of fertilized
eggs into one person. Does the person's skin have one soul and their
liver have a different one?

These sorts of questions are too deep for me. That's why I stay out of
theology. -Eric
