Obama is strengthening America’s military by cutting their budget and making them purchase environmentally destructive fuel at 1500% of the normal price.
The Air Force bought 11,000 gallons of alcohol-to-jet fuel from Gevo Inc, a Colorado biofuels company, at $59 a gallon in a program aimed at proving that new alternative fuels can be used reliably in military aircraft – once, that is, their pricing is competitive with petroleum, which now costs $3.60 a gallon.
Just what we need, eco-friendly bombers. What’s next? Non-toxic bullets?
lead-free bullets? As lead is toxic bio-hazard, so…
The new ammunition is notable for being “green” for one thing; it’s lead-free, meaning the new ammo is environmentally friendly, the Army said.

I’ve been buying lead-free .17 caliber pellets for my air rifle. They are supersonic and make an amazing about of noise.
I’ve got a Diana Panther with a scope, that I use for small varmints and plinking. When I have one of my ATF weekends, it’s funny to see how much the guys enjoy shooting that little gun, even with all the other weaponry available. Air rifles are forever young…
Lead Free Bullets are like non-toxic poison.
Why is there no adult supervision?
O’s military won’t have horses, bayonets, or new navy ships. But they’ll keep spending almost as much on $52 a gallon gas, Volts for Vienna, and flower power I’m sure in the new happy go lucky military.
The next thing we will see will be enviornmentally friendly nuclear weapons.
Gore’s ghosts have flown from Hansen’s hollow to haunt the man himself, demanding a refund. The layperson comments on mainstream conservative blogs are pitchfork filled:
(From: http://reason.com/blog/2012/10/23/last-nights-presidential-debate-proves-t#comment)
“Why would anyone assume that a world-class looter seeks “meaning” beyond collecting world-class loot?”
“Al’s gotten pretty chunky there, too. He looks awfully like, say, A ROBBER BARON!”
“He’s hanging onto his house boat. Bio-Solar One. Yep, that’s the actual name. And it’s parked closest to the pier restaurant at Hurricane Marina on Center Hill Lake.
It’s a mighty nice boat. He has it filled with bio-diesel to run the engines. Of course, the marina doesn’t actually stock bio-diesel, so they have to truck it in and run a hose from a truck in the parking lot which makes a special trip and undoubtedly voids any actual benefit. But, hey, it’s the thought that counts, right?”
