Environmental Regulations Bill:

1. Green jobs only last a week, but are worth it.
8. More land set aside for national forests and pay for it with visitor fees at other parks.
9. Tougher regulations on emissions and encourage hybrids even though they are ugly.
10. Global warming is a European and liberal hoax to kill the American economy.*
11. Celebrating Earth Day is like worshiping dirt.
13. Immediate 20% reduction in greenhouse gases.**
14. Cap and trade supporter, but must be mandatory.
16. Europeans need to stop trying to politically invade my country.***
17. Sign onto Kyoto and be dictated by rulers in Europe? Just say NO!
18. Make the Environmental Protection Agency a cabinet department.

Energy Bill:

1. Use ethanol as a subsidy if it can lower prices to under $40/barrel, but not $60.
2. No drilling in ANWR and save it for national emergencies.
3. More funding for renewable energy resources and energy independence.
5. 100,000 hydrogen powered vehicles by 2020.
7. Nuclear energy is the solution to climate change, but global warming is still a hoax.****

Animals and Endangered Species Bill:

3. No human rights to animals because it is absurd and insane.*****
4. Eating cats, dogs, or horses is un-American.******
5. Without hunting laws, deer would be extinct.*******

* = I myself am often skeptical of the "global warming" thing, but the way you worded it in this post was just so ignorant and completely void of logic, reason or sense that I immediately wanted to donate money directly to Al Gore's bank account. "European and liberal hoax to kill the American economy" seriously? Do you actually believe that? Again, I view everything from a more skeptical standpoint, but this is just outright ignorance.

** = How do you propose we do that?

*** = What...

**** = So you believe in "climate change," but not "global warming"? Hmm...okay. That's like saying, "I hate Linkin Park, but I love Limp Bizkit!" It's the same. f***ing. thing. Just with a different title. Clear contradiction right here.

***** = "Absurd and insane" in what ways? I don't think it's unreasonable to give animals some basic human rights. It ought to be illegal to deliberately kill an animal, right? Well it's illegal to deliberately kill a human. It ought to be illegal to neglect an animal, just like it's illegal to neglect a human. In fact, I think giving animals more rights would be great for our society, as we often take them for granted and treat them like trash. By the way, you basically contradict yourself on this point later.

******  = Left this in because it is so ridiculously idiotic that you would include this in here...can't we universally agree that eating cats and dogs is wrong? What hallucinogen caused you to put this in here? You make these threads so people can have discussions about your views, fine. But why this? Did you expect a disagreement to come out of this? Did you think someone would find consumption of domestic animals morally justified? Are you kidding me?

******* = Please tell me you don't believe this. Please. An entire species of an extremely common animal...wiped off the face of the earth...by hunting? Really? You make me laugh sometimes with your lack of logic and knowledge.

Seriously, you are a militant Conservative. You also contradict yourself in a lot of these posts and it's kinda funny. I enjoy watching you fail so blatantly in these posts. There's been times when I've had to step away from my computer because you either make me so mad that I would scream, begin to lose faith in humanity or vomit--or a combination of all three.

I agree with you on some of your views, but not a large enough amount to say that I find you to be a sane human being. Some of these statements are just so blatantly ignorant and devoid of value that I can feel my IQ dropping.

Considering we both live in PA, Derek, and considering I'm not an outdoorsy person, I'm not exactly familiar with the deer population, forgive me for that (/sarcasm)

Nevertheless, I agree that some hunting laws need to be implemented, but to say an entire species of a common animal would be extinct seems like a bit of a stretch.

I agree with pretty much every aspect of your criticism of Derek's proposals, but how familiar are you with the fate of the passenger pigeon and nearly of the buffalo? These used to be extremely, extremely common, definitely more so than deer are, perhaps more so than deer ever were.

I'm unfamiliar, but like I said, there should be certain hunting laws.
