[quote:Phennommennonn:MV8xNzIwMzQxXzI4NDY0NDE3XzJDRDVDOTMz] [color=red][i]Mr. Obama strikes again vis-a-vis high grain and fuel prices. Mr. Obama's insane policies based on fraudulent "science" regarding so-called anthropogenic global warming have lead to massive government subsidies with borrowed taxpayer dollars of the ethanol industry which has driven corn prices through the roof. Fuel and energy costs have gone through the roof as well because of Mr. Obama's intense hatred of fossil fuel (which provides this country with over 90% of our energy) and his resulting anti-energy polices such as shutting down coal production in West Virginia, shutting down coal-fired plants around the nation, refusal to issue permits in the Gulf oil drilling region, refusal to build the Canadian XL pipeline, and his myriad other anti-energy policies. After all, Mr. Obama stated before his election that "Under my plan ... electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket." And they have. Mr. Obama's energy roosters have finally gone home to roost, and Longmont's turkeys have gone too. Just another consequence of Mr. Obama's anti-business, anti-energy, anti-economic and quite frankly, anti-American policies. Elections do have consequences. Remember that if you're inclined to vote for Mr. Obama for four more years in 2012. Our nation won't survive that if he's elected again. [/i] [/color] [/quote]
Original Message
Carolina-based Butterball announced it was shutting down its Longmont facility at the end of the year, blaming high grain and fuel costs that had made its westernmost production plant no longer financially viable.
