Obama Lies

If I am reading a chart correctly ( and doing so summarizes information quickly ), the latest First Energy Plan from the Obama Pentagon, is another big deception foisted upon the American public. Only 2% of U.S. oil consumption comes from the Federal government. 98% is civilian consumer driven. Of the Federal government’s 2%, the military, the Defense Department uses 93%. Of that 93%, 77% comes from petroleum which represents 680 trillion BTU’s. How much comes from renewables/other? A piddling 9.1 trillion BTU’s.

Now comes the great lie. The strategy to be fleshed out this summer from the Pentagon, promises to develop more energy-efficient weapons, embrace non-oil energy sources and demand more energy-conscious behavior from the troops. Investments in biofuels and renewable energy will increase. The Navy has experimented with a great, green fleet.’ The strategy is to concentrate on reducing the energy consumption of operations including training, deployment and support of military forces. An Admiral is quoted who advocates spending an “extra dime here to save a dollar down the road...”

Pray tell how are we to believe a reduction possible in the consumption of 680 trillion BTU’s?
Are we to believe that a devotion to and concentration of attention on renewables/other will in any measurable way save money in the long run ( based on huge layouts in the near term ) or put a dent into the 77% of petroleum? Coal, natural gas and electricity already figure 2x., 8xand 10 x more heavily in the mix of Btu’s.

Concentrating on increasing the present 9.1 trillion BTU’s on renewables which are 76 x less utilized is ....CRAZY. No, a CRAZY LIE,
