I found an article on your video. Seems Biden has no idea what he supports from day to day....or what Bambam supports.


"We’re not supporting clean coal," he said of himself and Obama. They do, on paper, support clean coal.


In the primary, Biden opposed Obama's push for clean coal,


Biden spokesman David Wade responded by calling McCain's statement "yet another false attack from a dishonorable campaign."

He continued: "Senator McCain knows that Senator Obama and Senator Biden support clean coal technology. Senator Biden’s point is that China is building coal plants with outdated technology every day, and the United States needs to lead by developing clean coal technologies."


But the error here does seem to be Biden's, and his remarks, and his apparent return to his primary position Tuesday, were striking because just three days ago, he praised the possibilities of coal to a crowd at the United Mine Workers of America annual fish fry in Castlewood, Va.

So which is it???? Do they support clean coal or don't they...maybe they should get together and decide.

Democrats to let offshore drilling ban expire

By ANDREW TAYLOR, Associated Press Writer1 hour, 8 minutes ago

Democrats have decided to allow a quarter-century ban on drilling for oil off the Atlantic and Pacific coasts to expire next week, conceding defeat in a months-long battle with the White House and Republicans set off by $4 a gallon gasoline prices this summer.

House Appropriations Committee Chairman David Obey, D-Wis., told reporters Tuesday that a provision continuing the moratorium will be dropped this year from a stopgap spending bill to keep the government running after Congress recesses for the election.

Republicans have made lifting the ban a key campaign issue after gasoline prices spiked this summer and public opinion turned in favor of more drilling. President Bush lifted an executive ban on offshore drilling in July.

"If true, this capitulation by Democrats following months of Republican pressure is a big victory for Americans struggling with record gasoline prices," said House GOP leader John Boehner of Ohio.

Democrats had clung to the hope of only a partial repeal of the drilling moratorium, but the White House had promised a veto, Obey said....

Now speaking of Energy, Biden, and gaffes:

"No Coal Plants in America" [Jonah Goldberg]

I don't know why the McCain campaign wouldn't just run that video of Biden in the relevant parts of West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Colorado etc. Or better yet, why the RNC couldn't run ads with that clip in the relevant congressional districts.

Damn you are quick Kathianne

Is Biden really this stupid, or could there be something to him being dumped by Obama; and he is saying these things under orders?
