It was part of the first attempt at an "energy bill", that never made it in Shrubs first admin, now its there again. Delay has been huge in pushing this thru Congress the first time. The Senate didn't pass it. Delays contributions from MTBE manufacturer's are pretty large, just do a google search with "Delay" & "MTBE" somewhere in there, and it'll show up. I'm too lazy to post the links.

Same shit with ethanol. The Repubs say it will decrease our requirement from foreign oil. True but, quantities aren't sufficient to make any real difference in imports, its cost more than oil to make it a "fuel" and it is subsidized.

Energy bill = Bad. Repubs voted this last week (check your reps record) to kill alternative energy and stay with oil and coal (no solar, wind, etc).....what the fuck are we gonna do when we are out of dinosaurs?



PS, thank goodness for spell ceck!!
