I believe in all of the above. I believe in trying to make sure that we have everything on the table.

If we choose to use the God-given resources, the natural things that are here, the energy sources that we have, we can remain the number one nation economically in the world for many, many years to come.

If we continue to throw more regulations on and more regulations on like wet blankets on the fire of enterprise, we will be doing our Nation a disservice.

I see this all the time where it appears that the EPA is either making others spend a lot of money or they are spending money and yet we could take that money and use it for something that really matters like the cookstoves and do things…

we think we are sending jobs with so many different regulations coming from so many different parts of the EPA and other agencies at one time and we are actually sending a lot of jobs overseas.

But, you know, we are on the frontlines of that. We lost another 620 jobs just last week that are idled.

So to be putting our money on algae at this point, although it certainly should be researched, would be a foolish bet for the next 15 or 20 years.

Sleepless nights for Saudi sheiks. In my part of the world, you give Saudi sheiks sleepless nights by looking at turning coal into gas.

If we keep raising the cost of electricity, don't you think that will cause some concern or some diminution in the advantages of going to an electric car?

If you think coal is ugly, wait until you see poverty.

Simply put, coal powers America.
