   So dashing! So scientific!This bit from the Statesman story, from the bill's sponsor, is amusing:Watson said he had never heard of Republicans for Environmental Protection, but he welcomed its support.Guess REP doesn't have a big profile in Texas ...

   George Clooney must have been booked ...It is perplexing why Republican environmentalists have continued to vote Republican for the last eight years.

   how many Republicans ...... does it take to change a light bulb, more or less greenly?
   Four: one, to contact Karl Rove, to find out if incandescent or CFL is the politically expedient solution for the present need; one, to place the order with the Halliburton agent; one, with authority to carry a weapon, to make sure that the worker sent over to do the installation has his papers in order; and one, to manage the press availability.

   That's not enoughWe would also need another Republican to use inside information about the bulb purchase to make money speculating in CFL lamp shares; a former WSJ oped idologue-turned-spokesperson for the Dept of Energy to blame the fact that the old bulb burned out on the lax moral standards of the Clinton administration.

   Ummm... Jason?Does it need to be pointed out that not everyone in Texas is a charismatic-megafauna-hating oilman, just like everyone in Vermont is not a tree-hugging hippie? If so, maybe your reality needs some more serious flexibility training.

   Ooops, misspell(That should have been Bryan, extra 't' in the above post.)
   That was supposed to be sarcasm, in response to the idea that Republicans are incapable of being concerned about the environment...  (Compare and contrast to "College Station has no Greens", or "Austin has no conservatives".)
   But everyone in Vermont is a tree-hugging hippie btw.   :)
