Russian Invasion Shows Risks of Addiction to Fossil Fuels; Will Biden Fund Shift to Renewables?

[Uncle Joe]

1. 50 years ago president Nixon gave a speech,

pushing to end our reliance on fossil fuels and to explore alternative energy.

Figure it out from there.

2. Will the GOP and Manchin allow him to?

4. No shit!

Isn't that what the second part of the BBB legislation is all about? That and help for working people?

3. As far back as Carter

It wasn't the President stopping the transition away from fossil fuel. And it's still the GOP, doing the biding of the oil companies, that is standing in the way. See how they are waffling here? They don't dare get close to saying we need to stop depending on fossil fuels, especially from Russia. Do teh try to deflect by blaming it on Biden, including the delay in shifting to renewables.

5. Is this what passes for constructive "left" media...

...Why isn't the title "Will the Republicons ever stop blocking the transistion to alternative energy?"

or

"Why are the Republicons getting away with blocking Democratic Party efforts to switch to alternative energy?"

or

"Republicons block Biden's leadership on Alternative Energy?"

Do you see how this works?

Biden has advanced the cause of alternative energy conversion in a measured smart way and he not only fights members of his own party, the united fascist thugs of the Republicon party, but "leftist media" such as Democracy Now and websites like Counterpunch.

With friends like this, who needs enemas?

I can't even watch her anymore, and I grew up on Amy Goodman living in Berkeley and listening to KPFA.

6. Has Biden got the money and authority to fund the shift to renewables?

A better question may be "Will Republicans allow our country to move forward, or will they continue to insist on us all living in the past?"
