  1. Mr. President: you are a scam artist. I regret voting for you but then again, mr. mccain was a loser too.

    Shame on you. You have no idea what you’re doing. You aren’t fighting for health and humanity. You fight for banks and corporate slave drivers. Screw you and your corrupt wife. You’re no different than all who came before you. Tell Monsanto I said screw them too.

  2. magnetics are a free energy source we don’t even attempt to use……..silly humans…..just keep arguing amongst yourselves, that’s what they want you to do….(ugh)

  3. @0PsycoDad0, Yell, We all know who the RETARD is here, PsycoDad. I think you need to go live with him at the White House.

  4. @ShooterMaGavin Not to mention that if you tried to arrest all the people in America who’ve smoked marijuana recreationally, you’d be trying to put more than a sixth of the population in jail. All prohibition does it cost the taxpayers money, arrest their Children, and guarantee weed is available not only for informed adults, but also for children. shouldn’t matter whether you’re pro or anti pot, we all need to be anti-prohibition.

  5. I heard his helicopters coming in while I was at work, about 2 minutes from here. Obama was supposed to come over and play mortal kombat with me. Baraka wins.

    Legalize marijuana! Hemp has more potential for materials then any other product.

  7. I wish for a cleaner world, I’m tired of living in smoggy cities, breathing in crap even though I do all my best to stay healthy. At least Obama is taking a step forward towards clean energy, even though his staff are corrupt officials.

  8. @maskedphrogg How is technology like that supposed to progress then? Hope for investment from the private sector? Right now oil is more profitable. Also I don’t think wind turbines are the only thing worth investing on, the rest of renewables and nuclear are necessary aswell. Now if you’re going to say none of this is government business then that’s a whole different topic and I’ll just say I don’t exactly disagree.

  9. @Shalek
    And when technology like that of the wind turbine reaches the break even point, that point where investment and resources necessary for maintenance is paid back by output, then you can rail about your pet project being ignored. At present it is ignored because you have to put more value in than can be gotten back out by running the damn thing. And the area of terrain required by a matrix of turbines necessary for production of useful amounts of energy is prohibitive also.

  10. @hitheresunshine
    The proper way to express that opinion is
    “Oil is not sustainable either”

    No one is arguing that petroleum is an unlimited resource. So what in particular is the point you thought you were expressing?

  11. @DocSmiTherZ
    Factories like this are rare because the technology does not yield much in the way of useful energy. In common parlance the products of a factory like this are called money pits. Dump boat loads of money in, get a trickle of value out. This is not a profit generating venture. It is a pit of despair and despondency because nothing of value is being produced.

    You forget Barack’s political training grounds.
    Chicago, IL
    Obama had no change in mind beyond the name behind the podium.
    Those of us who listened to Barack on the campaign trail to the election in 2008 could readily see he had every intention of being just another Bush. It was not clear at that time he would be Bush on steroids. This we had to wait until Jan 20, 2009 to begin witnessing. This fast talking BS-er belongs on a used car lot, not a high seat of US government.

  13. @benympls stop acting like a little child this is not the place and not the time for comments like that…

  14. I DONT BELIEVE YOU.
    I AM REGISTERED DEMOCRAT I VOTED FOR OBAMA
    BUT I WILL NOT VOTE FOR YOU IN 2012
    REAL CHANGE NOT FAKE CHANGE
    KUCINICH 2012!!!

    SCREW YOU OBAMA
    YOU ARE A BACK STABBING TRATOR
    IF YOU REALLY CARED ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR YOU
    YOU WOULD FIRE GEIGHTNER, SUMMERS & EMANUEL

  15. @Shalek Improving.
    Improving the power grid. Improving the building standarts. Improving legislature. Improving commuter traffic. Improving the US. Improving the living conditions on this FU$%ING globe…..

  16. The real revolution is the hemp movement in CA, I like to call it poor man’s solar, Mr. President it is time to stop clutching on to the old morals and dogmas. america deserves a square deal that is on the level. the smoke and mirrors of the drug policy is doing more damage to the workplace than your economic team. America can not afford a third strike.
