"We should have done this 10-15 years ago", says the oil man
this morning while trying to preaching to the choir at conference of energy producers pushing his "plan". Pushing drilling Anwar still and building "nucular" plants--and seeking legislation to protect the builders of the first 4 from lawsuits. What else--bio fuels, hybrid cars, modern electrical grid... quite a shopping list.

You know, I wish someone could produce some document that was proof definitive that these oil men KNEW about Peak Oil and actively connived on paper to game the system as much as possible while it lasts. Now that would be another smoking gun.

I feel ill after listening to that lying creep stand up there and try to sell himself as the "energy pre.." (sorry, can't use that word in the same sentence that includes even the thought of that ill-conceived creature). He's stolen that office 2x in 5 years and he has yet to really support any measure beyond drilling Anwar and pushing nucular energy.

Rant off.

2. Our last president like hummers too. Only they got him into trouble.
bush is an idiot. The 55 million who voted for him are idiots too. We can only hope the scales fall from their eyes.

Wow a sex joke and a Bible reference in one post.

9. Now that really hurts.
I'd take my show to Freeperville, but then I'd have to explain all my jokes to them and I'd have no fun.

Guess you better start drinking.

4. We could have done this like, 4 or 5 years ago too
Only we didn't and who's fault was that? Quit trying to pretend you care about our problems and DO something about them instead!

11. Jimmy Carter put solar panels on the White House
Everybody laughed. The real irony (or one of many) is that we have the technology to get 60mpg cars, or more, but we insist on driving gas hog SUVs.
