Title: The Goal of Energy Independence is Achievable
Topic: Energy Independence
Discussed by Marita Noon
with Energy Makes America Great
Part 1 of 3
Recently the
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) sent out a "2014
Priority Issues Survey.” The survey included expected Tea Party bashing: "Help
the Democrats protect the progress we have made from Tea Party radicals, deliver
the positive changes America needs, and help Democrats win a majority in the
U.S. House of Representatives!”
There was also a section on energy. Section VII, asks: "Which of the following
will help America achieve energy independence?” It offers five options that do
little to move America toward energy independence – which isn't even a realistic
goal given the current nature of liquid fuels. Additionally, most of the choices
given on the DCCC survey actually increase energy costs for all Americans –
serving as a hidden tax – and hurt those on the lower end of the socio-economic
scale the most. The proposals hurt the very people the party purports to
champion.

Discussed by Marita Noon
with Energy Makes America Great
Within the Democrat
survey, recipients were asked if the government should increase the gas mileage
standards for all new cars and trucks. Suggesting a forced raising
of gas mileage standards implies that auto manufacturers are in collusion with
oil companies and are intentionally producing gas guzzlers to force Americans
into buying lots of gasoline.
With the price of gasoline wavering between $3-4.00 a gallon, most people are
very conscious of their fuel expenditures. If it were technologically possible
to build a cost-effective truck or SUV that had the size and safety Americans
want and that got 50 mpg, that manufacturer would have the car-buying public
beating a path to its door. Every car company would love to be the one to corner
that market – but it will definitely not be easy, it probably won't be possible,
and it surely won't be cheap.

There is nothing
inherently wrong with the idea renewable energy. Wind and solar
energy are excellent sources of energy from renewable sources.
However, the cost is not where I take issue with the DCCC's inclusion of "Developing
renewable energy sources” in its survey. The survey question is about
achieving "energy independence.”
Throughout America, people are beginning to feel the escalating costs of the
forced renewable energy utility companies are required to add as a result of
Renewable Portfolio Standards that more than half of the states passed nearly a
decade ago.

Title: Should America Imitate a Third World Country?
Topic: Energy Independence
Discussed by Marita Noon
with Energy Makes America Great
Part 1 of 4
If imitation is the best form of flattery should the new Mexican President be
observing the Obama administration when it comes to jobs growth and growing
their economy?
Or, should President Obama and his administration be observing how the current
President of Mexico is providing new jobs for his population and growing their
economy?

The Mexican
government is actually encouraging for-profit businesses to expand and make more
profits! No, that is NOT a typo!
Even more astounding is the President of Mexico is reducing their take of taxes, fees, and in-kind contributions from the international oil companies! Again – NOT a typo!

Not everyone is
happy about the new President of Mexico’s brilliant plan. The day
the reforms were signed, protesters pounded on metal barriers with rocks and
spoons. Riot police stood guard. In fact, more than 1.6 million signatures have
been gathered on a petition demanding a referendum on energy reform.
So, what will happened? Will the new Mexican President back down?
Listen in to hear Marita’s opinion.

If an American
President had the guts to go up against the EPA and the environmental tree
huggers in order to increase oil, gas, and coal production in all the states of these United States, it would bring down the cost of gasoline and electricity.
Not only that, it would create hundreds of thousands of jobs for the American people, building a more secure America by freeing us from the chains held by O.P.E.C.

Title: Does Energy Make America Great?
Topic: Energy Independence
Discussed by Marita Noon
with Energy Makes America Great
Why should women care about energy? Obama's new CAFÉ standards are staggering
- with a projected 50% increase in mpg over the next 13 years. Will you please
explain these standards and what they will mean for our economy?
The Obama administration promised 5 million new energy jobs at a cost of $15
billion per year. The amount of new jobs that have been established is far less
than that and the plan has cost much more. Are women beginning to see the truth
hidden behind the lies?
What is the biggest concern for women when they go and vote? Can you break down
some of the "green jobs" that Obama has claimed to have created? Why should
women even care about how much green energy is actually costing us?

Title: EPA Regulations Expected to Further Cripple Coal Industry and to Unnecessarily Drive Electricity Costs Sky High! Surprised?
Topic: Energy Independence
Discussed by Tom Borelli
with National Center for Public Policy Research (www.NationalCenter.org)
Part 1 of 2
Coal currently provides what percentage of the nation's electricity? Is it true that the proposed regulation will ban future construction of new coal-fired power plants and force utilities to use other power sources? What would those other sources be?
Will the EPA’s greenhouse gas rule essentially end the use of coal as a power source in our country? Is President Obama bankrupting the coal industry through his regulatory black boot? (For our listeners, what does the regulatory boot mean?)

Is Obama delivering on his promise to make electricity prices skyrocket? Will American coal be exported to China, thus putting our country at a competitive disadvantage for cheap power?
Does the new rule remove coal as a competitor for electricity, making way for Obama’s renewable alternatives, wind and solar? The new rule is a bail out for whom?

Title: Do you remember from physics or chemistry what “E” stands for? - The USA and its ENERGY independence crisis.
Topic: Energy Independence
Discussed by Judson Phillips

Part 1 of 2
President John F.
Kennedy guided American policy to place a man - an American - on the moon.
Today, does America have a leader, bold enough, charismatic enough, and strong
enough to guide America to “energy independence in 10 years” and if so, will
this ‘Drill Here - Drill Now’ policy crash the world oil prices?
If America became energy independent within the next 10 years, would this put
Americans back to work?
By becoming energy independent within the next 10 years, would this provide
safe, secure energy supplies for our children and grandchildren?
