W says cut healthy air for cheaper gas.

Now he wants to add tax credits for hybrids while giving monstrous taxes for gas guzzlers a few years ago. The guy is schizoid.

He wants increased pollution to allow all those SUV's and humvees to continue their reckless abandonment of common sense and environmental concerns?

We don't need drilling, we need to use American technology to develop alternative sources. I was astounded that wind wheels are in the East river energized by water flow and producing enough electricity to provide power for Roosevelt Island shops. No damage was done to riverlife.

2. This is the break they have been waiting for.

Gutting ALL environmental regulations in the name of a pressing emergency.

5. We need to educate the public on alternative endeavors

W is wrong in thinking we are willing to sacrifice our environment and health for cheap gas.

Americans are better than that. He and the bushbots might not be.

7. Do you think they plan to build their own domed, planned cities

With "purified" air and water, UV-blocking domes and so on? I mean, they have to live here, too, don't they?

There's a really funny CT I read a while back (could make for good fiction I thought) about how hey were terra-forming Mars. It's called The Mars Records www.themarsrecords.com. Maybe they read it, also, and that's their survival plan.

8. The man is useless

No, I take that back. He excels at creating problems and then taking a hammer to them...while whistling a happy tune.

10. It really is quite ridiculous

I almost feel privileged to be living during this madman's reign.

As spectators of history, we're really getting some top stuff.

11. Yep, that was what I was thinking. No affixing responsibility of high gas

prices to oil companies or auto companies. Typical behavior by Bush. I hope the US public see through this.
