Gotta love the govt that wants to tell us what size tires to run..

All in the name of the false religion of global warming.

[John McIntire]

HaHa, could you imagine getting a ticket for having low tire pressure?

[go-fish]

I think this winter has proved that Global Worming is a false religion. Just this morning I saw that they are out selling thier fear again.

"Expert: Planet is sicker the previously thought."

Bull Ship!

one winter in one location is weather, which is different than climate..
here's how it works, and if you follow the logic, it all makes sense..

you take the average temps from a number of years, then discard the stuff that doesn't agree with the trend that you are looking for, what you get is proof that the earth's climate is getting warmer because we don't all carpool in electric cars..

Sad socialist behavior.:machine:

They got e-mails from me.

[Jim Nilsen]

Those people are diapers that need to be changed and I told them along with telling them to move to CHINA so they can see that they will make no difference in global environments at all.

We need to crack their valve cores to make them the first offenders of their own legislation if it passes.

I doubt it will even reach the floor but if it does we need a revolution soon.

Got this reply today.


Thank you for your message regarding House Bill 2186. This bill reflects a concept created in the Governor's office. It was then referred to the House Committee on Environment and Water (on which I serve as one of eight members). At the bill’s first hearing, held on Tuesday, February 3rd, I explained to the witnesses from the DEQ that I was not happy with the concepts contained in the bill. The delegation of power to the DEQ is far too great and the economic impact of the bill is too far reaching. The bill will, I am sure, require additional public hearings.

I represent District 60 (Malheur, Baker, Harney, and part of Grant County). I am certain that a majority of my constituents will oppose many of the ideas in the bill, particularly those which will negatively impact our economy. I would strongly suggest and recommend that you contact your state representative and share with him (or her) your thoughts regarding this bill.


Very Truly Yours,


Representative Cliff Bentz
District 60

Sounds like an encouraging bill for businesses and consumers.......Way to boost the economy of Oregon Kulongski. :machine::machine:

[BonzoHansen]

"based solely on a rolling resistance rating"

Are they going to require tire makers supply that? They don't now.

They had news storyout a little while ago that didn't get any coverage because it didproves global warming, but it stated that all the 3 major weather trackers in the world were showing that what everyone is calling global warming was the earths average temp raising 1 deg. cel. over the last hundred years and that in the last year the average temp has cooled by 3/4 deg. cel.

If you look at Al Gores presentation on global warming he skips over an important graph real fast that shows the earth warming and coolong and that we were just getting to the end of a warming trend.

....and if that ain't enough, Oregon plans to increase the taxes on the states brewers by......are you ready for this...........

1900% per barrel.

One thousand, nine hundred percent.

So if you drink beer that is brewed in Oregon it's going to get muuuch more expensive.



.....and I thought California had cornered the market on stupid legislators.

Guess they don't want to brew beer in Oregon anymore. Too bad, I've had some pretty good beer there.

Here's a math quiz for legislators:
Beer is brewed for $50/barrel.
Johnny pays $1 tax on said barrel. So to buy a barrel Johnny pays $51.
Legislators raise tax to $19/barrel. Cost to Johnny is now $69.

How much tax is earned when Johnny stops buying beer?

A) Still $19/barrel
B) None, because 0x19=0
C) Please vote my dumb@$$ out before I wreck the economy more than it already is.

[Jim Nilsen]

They obviously didn't stop to think that the beer makes people not care about things because beer makes people jolly. Make the beer cost that much more and they will not be so jolly and when beer drinking people get sober and see this they will be mad as hell and that won't be good for the politicians when they get angry ,straight, thirsty people starting to look for them.:machine:
