POPSFeds Skewed Clunkers Results Trucks were also subject to lower fuel efficiency standards under the program, and analysts were initially surprised not to find more gas-guzzlers on the top 10 list. Seems the government stacked the deck to make its program look more environmentally sound than it is. (H/T j.leader for the tip) Is Cash for Clunkers green? You may be surprised by the facts. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/green/detail?blogid=49&entry_id=44867

They grow like weeds and suck up water big time - goodbye native pine trees!

POPSDoes Bailout Come with a Company Car? As a major shareholder in the newly formed Government Motors I demand to know when I can pick up my company car. Could someone tell me which of the dealerships still in business are taking requests for company cars? Now that I am the majority stock holder in the company I would like to have as one of my perks a nice new company car and not one of them HYBRIDS either. I want one of those big old gas guzzlers that the President drives. If Ms Pelosi can fly around in a company jet, and the President can drive around in his fleet of SUV's then AS A MAJOR SHAREHOLDER IN GOVERNMENT motors SO CAN I. Please make delivery of my new company car to the address you have on file in my Share HOLDERS portfolio. THANK YOU.

POPSHybrid Hogwash Now that Obama owns two car companies and is quickly trying to cram hybrids cars on the American public it seems that this discussion on their effectiveness would have been better timed BEFORE OBAMA bought the car companies. But like so many of his policies there is never any discussion just a rapid rush to legislate and then we the people are left to clean up the wreckage. This report when read in its entirety shows all too well what is wrong with our energy policy in America. IT IS THE ENERGY CZAR who refuse to allow us to build plants, drill for oil, produce natural gas, explore for more oil reserves. instead they want to install a completely new system for which no infrastructure has even been planned let alone built. We truly have a BOZO in the White House.
