Are you sure you didn't find this here? I remember a thread about this at SD, but not at SB.

This will be interesting if it works. On the one hand crazy liberals will be praisiong the biological fuel alternative, while at the same time decrying the deaths of all those poor, delicious, turkeys.

Maybe then they'll all destroy each other, of course there'd be few democrats left and the republicans would control the government for awhile but what few democrats that remained would be uber democrats, and form the Ubercrat party.
"There is no reason why we can't turn sewage, including human excrement, into a glorious oil,"
Sounds good to me, finally, those discarded Chick Tracts would be good for something. And same with all those unsold Star Trek Toys in the old dusty corner of Toys R Us.
"This is our first-out plant, and we estimate we'll make oil at $15 a barrel. In three to five years, we'll drop that to $10, the same as a medium-size oil exploration and production company. And it will get cheaper from there."
then we won't have to put up with any shit from Oil exporting countries. All the Us has to do is continue to lead the world in garbage production and we'll have cheap fuel for years to come!
