Default new e15 gas coming

Not much we didn't all ready know.But look how Virginia and Oregon plan on screwing us

As tax revenue from gasoline sales go down due to more fuel-efficient cars on the road, lawmakers in Oregon and Virginia want to implement a per-mile tax on all cars to make up for lost gas tax…

I agree the lack of support from the old farts in the republican party was an issue, but the ringer brought in by the democrats made the difference. I'm ready for a third party, but for them to succeed, they need to take about %75 of the republican party with them. They can leave Boehner, McCain, McConnell, and Graham in their world of make believe. Other wise I hope the RINO's can be taken out in their primary's. There are a lot of people that support the Tea party's basic principles for smaller government, but are turned off by their religious stance. Too many people use abortion, and gay marriage as their single point in voting instead of looking at the bigger picture of fiscal responsibility.

there was a time when you didn't HAVE to vote on abortion or gay marriage because EVERYONE knew those were obviously wrong and it was a given that our leaders were to LEAD us and manage the workings of our country instead of making laws to protect the "rights" of killers and sexual deviants.

I am just pissed that she didn't talk at all about small engines. Had she done some research as a journalist... She could have discovered a lot more. Instead, she relied on AAA.
Merc, Yamaha, Johnrude, Suzuki, anyone that has had to pay for the E-10 mess should be shouting from the rooftops. Someone please put the EPA on notice. They protect nothing but their jobs 99% of the time.
The end of corn subsidy in 2011 made ethanol a little better until you look a little deeper. No more subsidy necessary. The fix is already in. Guberment requires that 37 bagillion gallons be blended into the mix. So there is a built in demand for ethanol production from corn. Meanwhile, due to the heightened demand, the price of corn skyrockets some 400% so they aren't even talking about a subsidy anymore. Why bother, the subsidy would pale in comparison to the actual gains in selling price. Good if your a corn farmer, you just got a whole lot richer. Not so good for the environment, food supply or the consumer..
