President Barack Obama attended two fund-raising events in Kansas City, Missouri on Thursday after his public appearance in North Kansas at an electric truck plant.
I saw no one explain how the batteries in electric delivery trucks could be reliably charged only using green energy sources. Won’t we need coal or nuclear power to charge those batteries? How is that really “green”?
The $32 million government stimulus grant to Smith Electric in North Kansas City supports a plant that recently hired its 50th employee. That’s a lot of money for not many “green” jobs.
While the events in downtown Kansas City were not open to the public, many on the streets tried to see the President.
