The Games They Play,

Hey folks,

I know that this is an old news story. Not that it really ever hit the "Main Stream Press". I read it on Newsmax.com. But it goes to prove my point. I have said, and continue to say, that if the Left has ANY possibility to win ANY election, they have to stop playing the games they play. Well, they still do not listen.

Senator Clinton, that’s Hillary for some of my Right Wing Radical friends, called for $1 billion in grants for research on making ethanol from plant cellulose. Cellulose is found in corn stalks, wheat straw, grass, and other natural products.

Why is this a great example of the games I’m talking about? Simple, Senator Clinton was one of 26 senators who opposed the energy bill passed by Congress in 2005 mandating the use of 7.5 billion gallons of ethanol by 2012. The bill included a 30 percent tax credit for the cost of installing pumps capable of dispensing fuel that is 85 percent ethanol. The is also a program authored by Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, for subsidizing the production of ethanol from plant cellulose.

I agree with Judicial Watch Inc, when they said,

"Could the sudden change have anything to do with the fact that, as a farm state, Iowa would benefit tremendously from corn-based ethanol consumption and the state just happens to host the caucuses that kick off the presidential nomination process?"

That’s right folks, just one year ago, she voted NO. She said her reason for voting against it was,,


"I have to look to first protecting and supporting the needs of the people I represent right now."

So helping people save money and be less dependent on foreign oil is NOT protecting and supporting those you represent? Who do you represent Senator? Now a year later, with a growing disdain for the out of control gas prices, in a state that is hosting the start of the Presidential nomination process, you have uh,,changed your mind? What happened to the people you "represent" now?

This is what I’m talking about. They, the Left Wing Looney fringe, TRULY believe that we are this stupid. They truly believe that you, an intelligent, independent thinker, cannot see through such a clear attempt to win the state? I assure you they do.

Cullen Sheehan, director of Iowa's Republican Party, said,

"Iowans remember her anti-ethanol past and are looking for strong leaders who won't run from their record and change positions whenever it's politically expedient."

This type of games do not win elections...
