Ethanol blazes pose a problem to fire crews (2/27/08, page A7)

Chris Blank, AP
I’m proud of CCTimes for publishing this story.
Once again, an unintended consequence of pushing ethanol rears its expensive head. Now it turns out putting out auto fires fueled by ethanol is harder and more expensive to do than gasoline.
When are we going to stop listening to environmentalists when they insist on pushing some [...]

Obama under thumb of special interests (2/26/08, not in CCTimes)

You will not see this in the CCTimes (you will see attacks against McCain for meeting with attractive lobbyists).
Barrack Obama credits unions for saving his US Senate campaign.
Now imagine if McCain gave credit to insurance companies for saving his US Senate bid.
Barrack says, “. . . I owe these unions. When their leaders call, I [...]

Environmentalists wrong again (2/28/08, not in CCTimes)

3 years ago the United States used 15% of it’s corn to replace 2% of its gasoline. And now it turns out that resulted in a greater production of CO2 emissions, the same emissions the evironmentalists wanted to stop with corn-based ethanol.
A 4 year study on the use of palm oil to substitute as alternative [...]

Web politics come of age with Obama (2/24/08, Front Page)

Frank Davies, MediaNews
It what can only be described as a rerun, the CCTimes, ever in-love with Obama, choose to run the same story they ran 4 years ago about Howard Dean.
There is nothing new about each subsequent 4 years the Internet being better used to support campaigns. This was nothing more than an excuse by [...]

UC sues to stop animal rights demonstrators (2/22/08, page A10)

Noaki Schwartz, AP
Here are the crimes that these liberal thugs from the Animal Liberation Front have committed:

Harrassment
Threatening violence (molotov cocktails, email, phone calls)
Violating individuals’ right to privacy
Vandalism
Violated noise ordinances

What struck me about this article is the Noaki NEVER bothered to ask police why they weren’t doing their job protecting these researchers.
Why did the University have to sue [...]

Conservative bloggers bash Obama’s wife’s comments (2/21/08, page A12)

Matt Sterns, McClatchy
Bias is reborn at the CCTimes. It had taken a couple of weeks off. I wonder who was on vacation.
On the front page the CCTimes publishes innuendo as fact about Republican John McCain, on this back page they publish an editorial (without labeling it as such) about Michelle Obama’s offensive comment regarding how [...]

Energy Bill forces military to fund terrorists (2/18/08, not in CCTimes)

The 2007 energy bill (signed into law by President Bush, no less) may bar the U.S. military from purchasing oil made form Canadian tar sands, thereby forcing them to purchase fuel from the middle east, where too much of that money ends up in the hands of Muslims who fund terrorists.
A provision in the law [...]
