Leaving momentarily my alleged obsession with Sarah Palin, I turn to another female wingnut, Sharron Angle. Ms. Angle warned us a while back about the hideous initiative to ensconce Sharia law in a small town in Texas.

The trouble with Ms. Angle's distressful, Chicken Little warning is that this historical town, Frankfurt, no longer exists.

Read about this wackiness from the clueless Angle:

Last quarter, US GDp grew at an annual rate of 3.4%, which was last seen in 2007. The construction industry jobs lost may never return without the benefit of a housing bubble. Many of the manufacturing jobs that were lost have left the US for foreign soil. US productivity has never been higher, because we only make high value products like software. Boeing and Caterpillar are building their big shiny new factories in China.

Unemployment is higher than that when you figure in people that have exhausted their benefits. Where are these people counted?

The news here is? The news here is that Mr Dittohead thinks "Obamunism" works the the reason that companies build factories overseas is because of pure capitalistic greed. Mr. Dittohead, your wasted mind is a terrible thing...
Mark, your comment is incoherent.

US corps are going to China because thats the new market. There will be more auto sold in China this year than in the US. All the big car companies build there, and they have taught the Chinese how to make high quality cars, so in a few years you will be buying your cheap econocar at WalMart. China has ordered many, maybe hundreds of passenger jets from Boeing, and major components of all Boeing aircraft will be built there. PPG is moving their production from HSV there very soon, with the exception of the military stuff. China is building 30 nuclear power plants right now, using tech from GE, and an American workforce, that has not even been used in the US yet, and when it is, the fab work will be done in China.

Corps are nothing but greed, that is what makes them work for the shareholders.

You've just made a good argument for more nuclear plants in the US. Of course, being a leftist, you would hate corporations. We've tried other methods with disastrous results. Don't wish to repeat those experiments, again.

I thought your belief was that China is going to be getting it's power from coal !

Actually , China is adding power capacity in wind, solar, nuclear and coal.
Your rant about leftist not wanting nuclear plants (as best I could understand that blather) is not correct. I am a Progressive and have long been a supporter of nuclear power, Obama , although not very much of a progressive, has come out officially encouraging nuclear power in our mix. TVA is currently building another unit at Watts BAr, and as I now understand it, Belefonte will be finished afterward, as a nuclear plant.
Elint, your out in the stratosphere. Call the star ship to come get you.

What else would the Middle East be???...besides a Muslim based theocracy ruled by Sharia law??? Its been that wasy for a few thousand years.
Religion in the Middle EastFrom Wikipedia
The Middle East is very diverse when it comes to religions, many of which originated there. Islam in its many forms is by far the largest religion in the Middle East, but other faiths, such as Judaism and Christianity, are also important. There are also important minority religions like Bahá'í, Druze, Yazidism, Mandean, Gnosticism, Yarsan, Shabak religion and Zoroastrianism.

It has never been "controlled" by Muslin fanatics the way it is about to become. I think you underestimate the severity of what could happen.

Islam has been in existence for 1,300 years. Not, thousands of years.

No, its not my belief China gets much of its power from coal. Its a fact, not a belief.

From an 11 June 2006 article in the NYT:

"Coal is indeed China's double-edged sword — the new economy's black gold and the fragile environment's dark cloud.

Already, China uses more coal than the United States, the European Union and Japan combined. And it has increased coal consumption 14 percent in each of the past two years in the broadest industrialization ever. Every week to 10 days, another coal-fired power plant opens somewhere in China that is big enough to serve all the households in Dallas or San Diego.

To make matters worse, India is right behind China in stepping up its construction of coal-fired power plants — and has a population expected to outstrip China's by 2030."

Glad you are for using nuclear power. However, if you research most of the environmentalists and NIMBYs who oppose nuclear power, you will find they are leftists.

No starship, however, a time machine is looking better and better.
