"We are addicted to oil" GWB
There is no doubt in my mind that most of us have had to deal with an addiction. Whether it has been a family member, a friend or maybe even ourselves.

The most important things that an addict needs is Hope. Ideas. Help.

We are a big think group here, let us help our President.

Let's give him some Hope, Ideas and Help.

Addicts will always blame others, notice that he says "We are addicted to Oil" He may have given up Bourbon and Coke, but he is still on Big Oil. He is bringing us on his ride.

So, let's help the president and our fellow Americans. Let's give them some ideas that they can do to help our country, "Addicted to Oil".

I am very fortunate to be able to work out of my home, so I do not have to travel often. Once a week I am able to do all my chores.

I don't have any young school age children.

What can each of us do, starting today, to help us break our addiction to oil.

I don't need my mail 6 days a week. The majority of my bills are done online. Most of the time my mail is solicitations. I pile them up in the kitchen and spend about 20 - 30 minutes on Saturday going thru them. 99% goes into the garbage.

Post Offices should remain open as is. Businesses should remain the same.

I can't even imagine the fuel saved by not having postal deliver every day, in every county, in every state across our nation.

What is your idea?

addicted to oil, this is a far cry from, when initiating an unprovoked war, he claimed the Iraqis, once 'freed', would be paying war costs with oil.
He's changing the framing he made, and I'm mad as hell about that.

Edit to apologize for that hideous run-on sentence! :silly:

3. Ugly guy playing with mind
The labeling stink of transfering of guilty
There is no such thing as an addiction to oil
A play on word to use to acheive a mindset thinking
A subconcious play on one mind
That the problems of today like war in Iraq and so, is hence cause by one own action
of the need of oil.
The usage of a simple micro thought to taint the big picture
and hence give reason to do wrong.

What utter garbage of framing a problem

"WE are ADDICTED to oil"

No bush
"YOU ARE ADDICTED TO WAR"
"YOU ARE ADDICTED TO YOUR OWN INFERIOR GREATNESS"
