Non E-10 Gasoline

[Dwight Rudder]

Why you blaming Bush ?  I thought Bush was the oil guy.  Last I looked it was OBAMA and his Greenie buddies pushing for more ethanol in our gasoline. Much more than 10%.  As a way of not only being green but to help fund more ethanol production.  Let's see. We are burning the worlds food supply. We use more oil producing Ethanol than we get.  We reduce our MPG by more than 10% with Gas with 10% Ethanol.  Doesn't seem so productive or sound does it ? Brought to you by the same guys who voted for the Pork Spending Bill that NOBODY who voted for it read.  Who put these idiots in office anyway ?
Stupidity knows no bounds.

Who new that Bush and his ethanol friends would get their dirty little hands all the way into our Penton tanks! Ethanol in pump gas is just another government scam. Just like Coca Cola using corn syrup to make cola. Another rip off that lines the pockets of the wealthy corprate elite. Coke is made with cain sugar in Europe, and tastes like the coke I remember as a kid. Corn should be eaten not just divided up to see how much greed can come from it. I think we should all stop eating Corn flaks too. I mean if Michael Phellps hits the Bong a few times wouldn't that promote eating more flakes? These people that are puting corn in our fuel are the same people that sent our jobs outside this country. Wake up people and arm yourselves for the future! Whether that means arming yourselves with a pen or a gun that's up to you. [xx(]

Well, before it gets too political, I would note that it is the fault of any congressman or senator from a state that grows corn, no matter what party they are from.

Understanding that this is a site about a famous off-road motorcycle and family and not the place for political discussion, the issue of the Kyoto Protocol(essentially international, UN rules and CONTROLS on greenhouse gas emission), it's ratification in our congress and what it could potentially mean for all of us that enjoy gasoline-powered off-road motorsports is vitally important, so I will exercise my First Amendment right here.

The protocol, which I believe pelosi(the most ignorant, stupid, evil dangerous idiot in congress) and obama(Marxist) will push to ratify, will establish cap and trade rules and taxes involving the burning  of fossil fuels and emission of greenhouse gases. The state and local gov. will be deeply involved and it's possible that our sport will be curtailed or so HEAVILY taxed, that no one(dealers, makers,and individual riders) will be able to afford it, thus effectively ending it. It's possible that even starting a 2-stroke engine in the future may result in a fine! As with the secretive, sinnister, deceptive criminal manner that pelosi pushed the spending pork bill through our congress, the Kyoto Accord and all it means to Americans will be processed the same way. Ladies and gentlemen, our freedoms and civil liberties are being assaulted by pelosi and obama in a sinnister, evil, PC quiet, "back door" manner that each of us need to pay attention to on literally an hour-by-hour basis. We all need to be FULLY ENGAGED with our elected officials on a daily basis and completely aware of what these socialists(or worse) are attempting to do to our freedoms and national security. Our nation is being transformed into something that, I believe, no loyal, freedom-loving American will come to love. pelosi and obama are unqualified, masters of distraction, deception, hypocrisy and lies and they warrant CLOSE attention. In my humble opinion they represent a threat to our way of life and our nations security, taking us right back to the same conditions before 9-11. (and yes, there was a time that I never thought I would write something like this about elected officials but we are at the midnight hour for America. These people are ripping America and it's social fabric apart at the seams).

I don't want the pork socialism bill that was crammed through to be a harbinger of things to come, particulary in regards to our civil liberties and our right to ride our motorcycles.

Just thoughts from an old(sort of-late middle-age) retired senior Army officer who worked in battlefield intelligence for years and has a deep love of America and our Constitution. The roots of freedom and liberty have to be watered with the blood of patriots.

See you all on the high ground!

Please keep this on topic.

I guess it is race gas for me what is the best way to store the stuff. I am ultra paranoid with flamable liquids. I work as a classic car appraiser ( I also appraise motorcycle collections) and twice a month I have to do an appraisal on a collection destroyed by a garage fire.

PS If it is November I have at least 5 jobs due to people frying turkeys and the fryer explodes in the garage

Amen Mark! As I said it's time to wake up. The roses have fallen off the stem. [xx(] Oh and I must apologize, I was motivated Friday night. Sorry if I offended anyone.

I realize that our world is changing and polar icecaps are melting, but it all seems just a little to convienent. and these changes to the way we use our resourses would be easyier to deal with if they were true, but alas......

I have found that many local marinas sell non E10 gas due to the havoc E10 is having on boats. A few cents more a gallon but worth it.

Thanks I will check that out.
