Pete Buttigieg gets taken to school.
The U.S. grid is nowhere close to being capable of absorbing the load of millions of new electric vehicles. If Buttigieg doesn’t know that, he should.

There’s no Utopia. There’s no Utopian energy.
YOU TELL ME TEXAS w/Paul Gleiser There’s no Utopia. There’s no Utopian energy. Your browser does not support the audio element. I have an article I’d like to share with you. The author is Brian Gitt and his article is titled, “Chasing Utopian Energy: How I Wasted 20 Years of My Life.” You’ll find the article here. Mr. Gitt self-describes as an energy entrepreneur, investor and writer. In his piece he details his career as...
Ignorant, dumb or dishonest?
Whenever I hear pontification about “clean energy” from an elite leftist I can’t help asking; Does this person really believe what he is saying? Is he really this uniformed, or worse, this stupid? Or is he just being deliberately dishonest in pursuit of a political aim?
Time to choose again.
Policy successes and promises kept far overshadow any Trumpian personality defects – real or perceived.
U.S. economic growth: thank those red states.
The majority of the economic growth cited by the president in his State of the Union address has happened in red states.
Texas does it again.
If Texas were a separate nation, it would be the 12th largest oil producing nation in the world, only slightly behind Venezuela and Kuwait. In just two and half years, Texas oil production has doubled and Texas is now on a pace to produce more oil than it did in the peak years of the 1970s.
The triumph of ideology over experience.
The countdown has begun toward President Obama’s much-anticipated “major policy statement” on jobs. If you watch it, keep a company called Solyndra in mind.
Incoherent.
President Obama recently gave a speech in Brazil encouraging them to develop offshore oil reserves and promising to be their “best customer” once the oil is on the market.
Remember $4.00 gasoline?
You may want to go find a fresh “Drill, Baby, Brill” sticker for your car. Because oil prices are on the way up and the Obama administration is about to start babbling about green energy again.
A bad speech from every angle.
Obama’s hard left base is mad at him because they believe he didn’t go hard enough on British Petroleum.
Forty miles and five thousand feet of comeuppance.
In what is surely one of the cruelest ironies in marketing history, British Petroleum has spent millions promoting its initials as standing for “Beyond Petroleum.”
The “devastation” of great success.
The project had a “devastating impact” at the mouth of the river upon which it was built.
Getting past disaster.
The story of the deepwater oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico that caught fire and sank continues to get worse.
Democrats to Jacko: “Thanks for covering for us.”
With respect to the Michael Jackson story, the Drudge Report the other day had the best headline. It read, “Michael Jackson: Never Can Say Goodbye.” I really feel like our celebrity-obsession crossed some line in the past two weeks and I believe Bernard Goldberg when he says we have become the ‘United States of Entertainment.’ And while we were all absorbed with the never-ending news coverage and retrospectives and downloading ‘Thriller’ to our iPods, Congress...
A Stronger America: Part 4 – Energy
This is the fourth in a five-part series on things I would do today in order to be assured of a stronger, freer, more prosperous America 25 years from now. In our previous three installments we have talked about overhauling the tax code, reasserting the role of fathers in a stable, free society and repairing the public education system. Today, we’re going to talk about energy. My daughter loves Cheez-its crackers. She came by that...
Call them back and make them do their jobs.
Did you call the president like I told you? I know some of you did because you called the station and asked again for the number. Get a pen and paper because I’m going to give the number out again. If you missed last week, I urged everyone to call the White House and urge the president to exercise his constitutional authority to call the Congress back to Washington from the August recess and put...
Congress: Lead (not likely) or get out of the way.
All the recent opinion polls say the same thing. The majority of Americans want action on high energy prices and they want action today. Right now. Citing just one poll, the Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll taken June 17 and 18, 76% of respondents favor more drilling for oil in the United States, 77 percent favor increased offshore drilling, 51 percent favor building more nuclear power plants and for the first time a majority – 53...
Moses would have drilled.
I won’t often quote scripture in this space. But I’m going to this time because the scripture I’m about to quote is illuminating in today’s situation. I’m quoting Deuteronomy, the eighth chapter beginning with the seventh verse. Moses is speaking to the Israelites: For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs that flow out of valleys and hills; a land of...
Call us the “Do Nothing Generation.”
Something I said on June 11 has been working on me since I first wrote it. In the story I did on the 1,400 mile Big Inch pipeline that was built from Longview, Texas to Linden, N.J. during World War II in only 54 weeks I said, “We Baby Boomers are the children of people who got things done. And we have been living off of those accomplishments ever since (without really having to put...
Our parents got things done and the Earth is still beautiful.
Click here to listen to the broadcast of You Tell Me on Newstalk 600 KTBB, Friday, June 13, 2008. I want to propose an ambitious capital project and I want your thoughts on the feasibility. In order to meet a strategic national need, we need to construct a pipeline nearly 1,500 miles from Texas to New York. We’re going to cross 95 counties and traverse all or part of Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,...
