  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

You left out "standing."

Giving their weapons away to a foreign country.
It's called Treason. When Biden left millions of dollars of weapons for the enemy supply in Afghanistan.
And yet people will still vote for him should he run in 2024.

Partisan blindness.

A nation of sheep begets a government of wolves.

And since you don't agree with me, that means there's something wrong with you.

Only if you are in a different political party.

Why does Biden want to shut down America's energy.
Say, that's a nice assertion you got there. Reeeeeal nice assertion.

Be a real shame if someone were to ask for some evidence for it. I'm a business man, you're a business man. Maybe if I had some reason to I could forget about any, you know evidence. Maybe you give me 500 reasons at then end of every month to forget about that evidence and we're both happy.

Just two, you know happy businessmen. I'm happy, you're happy and no one needs to know about any, you know evidence....

Do you think that Trump was elected because he was the first choice of the majority of Republicans?

Donald Trump was elected because of the obsolete and anti-democratic Electoral College. Even as disliked as Hillary was, about 3 million more voters nationwide chose her over Donald.

Interesting factoid: in the last 30 years. we’ve had 8 presidential elections. 3 Democrats and 2 Republicans have won. Only once did the successful Republican candidate win a popular vote majority.

But this is a topic for a separate thread.

If you would commit to doing your own research with half the energy you invest in sarcasm you'd maybe be able to post as a credible participant as a cogent adult in this debate.

Taking the time to research a rebuttal takes respect and time.

Why does Biden want to shut down America's energy. Doesn't he realize that this country runs on energy?

Are you not aware that coal is used for energy?

Did you know not that Biden was talking about coal plants with his "We're going to be shutting these plants down across America"

Do you need evidence of that?

Are you calling for a ConCon; or are you calling to abolish the Constitution?

A simple amendment will suffice. Like when we added the 19th amendment in 1920. The electoral college is an outdated farce. You would probably agree if your majority vote winner was deprived of the presidency twice in the past six presidential elections.

Say, that's a nice truncated headline you got there. Shame if someo........etc.

"Biden Administration Plans to Kill America's Energy Sector | Opinion"

"Biden shutting down American energy 'national security suicide': Sen. Sullivan"

Bwah haha........!

"President Joe Biden’s regulators have approved new oil and gas wells at a far faster pace than the Trump administration did during its first 21 months in office — a fact that undermines Republican election-year arguments about the causes of this year’s high gasoline prices."

The oil and gas paradox threatening Biden’s party at the polls

Tell me you know nothing about American economics without saying you know nothing about American economics.

Your go.

Getting back to my original statement, I don't think many republicans are swayed by those terms, even though the idea of them is to control others via stigmatization.
People cannot be swayed by anything they do not already agree with these days. But what would be a more preferable way to identify such individuals?

Are you aware that there are more energy sources than coal? I assume you do and that's why I wonder why you might thinks Biden's distaste for coal means all energy sources.

Nice deflection but you've been caught out posting links that don't say what you want them to say.

There are energy sources other than coal, such a petroleum. Biden seems to have a problem with that too. The fact is that without these sources, our energy needs will not be met.

Oh really?

“The clean energy tax credits and other provisions would really catalyze the industry and achieve significant reductions,” said Orvis, who has calculated that the support for wind, solar and electric cars would slash US oil demand, make 70% of the electricity grid run on clean energy and ensure that about half of vehicle sales are electric by 2030. Wind and solar grew at the fastest rate in US history last year.

The ailing coal industry could be phased out “fairly easily” within a decade, according to Orvis, although further federal, state and city standards and incentives are required to cut pollution from buildings, manufacturing and the remaining car fleet, promote energy efficiency and to install heat pumps in place of gas-fired furnaces."

‘Defining moment’: how can the US end its dependency on fossil fuels?

If you're going to be "calling me out" it would be "courteous" to quote me on that, as to "the content of the post and not the poster."

Be a real shame if someone were to ask for some evidence for it.

Speaking of evidence...

Biden: 'No More Drilling;' 'We're Going to be Shutting These Plants Down All Across America'
Posting in this manner is deceptive.

But on balance I think I may have over reacted to my perception of your intent.

My apologies- I've had a rough day.

The clean energy tax credits

Another Democrat tax scheme. Who would have imagined?

who has calculated that the support for wind, solar and electric cars would slash US oil demand,

Texas, an oil rich Republican controlled state, with its' own power grid, leads the nation in wind power, and is quickly expanding in solar power. What Democrat controlled states are putting "their" money, where "their" mouths are, to catch up with Texas?

The ailing coal industry could be phased out “fairly easily” within a decade, according to Orvis

..and if more people freeze to death under Biden's policies; we could see less of an energy demand as soon as this coming Spring!
