Hmmmmmmm-When and Where Did I Hear That Before
Don't just love the media shills making such a big deal out of Bush's so callled campaign to end dependence on oil?

Hmmm When and Where Did I Hear That Before? Oh yeah Jimmy Carter proposed it back in the seventies and the shills mocked him out and told him to go back to "peanut farming."

Imagine if we'd have actually listened to President Carter back then. It might have made a difference in a whole bunch of things. Especially since that was a President who actually believed in the concept and was willing to work for it.

Not just one whose trying to use it as a political selling point while reaping tons of profits from the sale of said oil in the meantime.

Hey I am showing my age bigtime here but I actually still have that Energy Crisis single on 45 that they released in the 70's.

Remember the one that ended "we would like to continue this broadcast but we have just run out of energy."

1. I wish we could do a rewind back before that fuckhead Reagan
took over -- remember when he arranged to keep the American hostages held until he took office? These fucking Republicans have been absolutely ruthless in seizing power, lying, and manipulating the masses for three decades now. It could have been so different ... *sigh*

2. Agreed
Reagan was one of the worst things that ever happened to this country and paved the way for the Shrubbery that has followed.
