Didn’t Bush once admit that the US is addicted to oil?
Everyone applauded when Bush said this as though something spectacular were to follow. Yet he has done absolutely nothing about it.
The Bush family is addicted to oil because that’s where they get their money. It’s all about oil money for them and their friends. That’s what the war is about and what everything is about under his command. Hell half the staff at the white house are former oil workers and pals of GWB.
Ethanol is not the answer.
How about putting more research & money into making cars that dont’ use any type of oil or gas.
Cars that run oh water, electric cars solar cars.
Do you think it’s just a coincidence that the top 35 people in the Bush administration come from the oil industry? Bush will spend a trillion dollars on renewable fuels when he can find a way for his financiers to profit. In the meanwhile we fight a war in Iraq and Halliburton profits, plus whatever oil companies get to steal the oil.
(Remember how, before the war, they assured us that gas would go back down to 80 cents a gallon?)

Because the war makes Bush, Cheney, and their Halliburton buddies billions of dollars. So they take the lead. Oil makes Bush, Cheney, and their oil company buddies billions… See the pattern…
George Bush is an oil man from an oil state, why on earth would you think that he would do anything to take away from the record setting profits in the oil industry?
I distinctly remember him saying that whip grass is a good possible source for ethanol and that he has people looking into making it a viable source of energy.
He doesn’t really care. Like all politicians he tells his constituents what they want to hear and then does the exact opposite. He did at one point admit the US is addicted to oil, however he has done nothing worthwhile to curb our dependency on oil. Why would he want to stop our dependency on oil though? His masters had him invade a country so that in the future our country will control the sale of that oil.
Do you want him to come to your house and brush your teeth, too?
Geesh, the President has no authority to mandate alternative fuels. You want renewable energy? Discover and market it yourself. Stop expecting government to do everything for you.
If a renewable energy source will be perfected, it will be by the private sector, NOT the government.
Without spouting anti-Bush stuff. Logically, this is comparing apples and oranges. Bush takes the lead on the war because he doesn’t want to seem like an incompetent coward who left a country in shambles in history’s eye. He wants to use one of America’s best advantages, her military supremacy, and succeed in a cause he believes is just and worthy of staying.
As for renewable fuel, R&D cost millions upon millions of dollars, it’s true that Bush could pull a few hundred million dollars out of the war fund, but then the harsh media who wants more negative news on Bush will call him incompetent in two fronts, taking precious funding needed for the ailing war and suddenly putting it in a project which may not even yield useful results. Plus, Congress needs to o.k. the plan…and well there’s a lot of work to even get the plan into action. Bush is not a one-man government he has to work within the system as he is our President.
I’m no supporter of Bush, and maybe he needs to pay more attention to other details in society, but we can’t pin the blame on the guy.
You are talking about a rather considerable investment to be made here. Public or private money?? Public money for R&D could be looked at as Corporate welfare, no?
What should he do? Tax the oil companies profits more? Give tax breaks for alternative fueled cars? Done that one.
And why does the President have to do everything? If there was enough outcry and demand, something would be done.
Lee Iacoca has asserted this publicly as have so many others who have reliable sources regarding the way business and policy have been conducted in this administration.
George W. has DEMURRED and DEFERRED to **** Cheney!
He is our DEMURRER in CHIEF!!!!!
Who’s his daddy? **** Cheney, of course!
“Take care of everything for me, daddy! But make me look good in the whole process, daddy!”
George W. has traded the high he experienced when he was a drunk and a cocaine snorter, for the high of hubris that **** Cheney has introduced him to.
Dick Cheney is his new “candy man” !!!
Don’t you remember that secret meeting on energy policy that Cheney conducted and we still don’t know the names of the people who attended?
Yes, Cheney has cleverly introduced this little man George W. to the new HIGH of HUBRIS.
George W. is this little Napoleon figure who has trusted Cheney to make him look good for the history books.
In exchange for this trust that has been rooted in vanity, Cheney has proceeded to exercise a level of authority and power that no vice-president ever has, and a level of authority and power that many presidents haven’t ever exercised
either!
This can be nothing short of a “POWER HIGH” for him as well!
This “symbiotic arrangement” will have the historians in awe and puzzled for years to come!
Bush has taken the lead much like a highly-polished talking hood ornament takes the lead as the limousine of state moves its way down the boulevard of history.
Cheney and his cronies are hidden under the hood and in the cab doing all of the steering and accelerating.!
Fully tinted windows all the way around!
It is only in this sense that George W. has taken the lead on anything!

He would have to get permission from Cheney.

When will people realize that Bush is a Dolt, I am not being facetious.
Because the Bunglebush is a former oil man like his father was. Hie is from Midland Need I say more?.

He has yet to find a profitable angle on that proposition.
well you can ask that of politicians across the board. The Bush family obtained their wealth from oil. Simple enough.
I distinctly remember him saying that whip grass is a good possible source for ethanol and that he has people looking into making it a viable source of energy.
Present priorities. The war presently takes president over other policies – as it should, our young soldiers are dying in Iraq.
As far as the Middle East is concerned, the war is a band aid at best, renewable energy is the cure.
the war is more important I’d say.
Cause Bush loves war.. from inside the white house
Remember that there was no ******* bombers before bush started this new world terror.

He and his friends do not have billions invested in renewable fuel. They do have billions invested in oil and war.
