  Ugh indeed

  You're absolutely right.  The Dems are killing me here.  They should follow Gore's lead and take a stand on the issue, even if it's not exactly what voters want to hear.

  I, for one, lose respect for Democrats with every concession they make on this issue.

  Good Stuff

  I'm far from the first to say this, but you really gotta stop and think when the politician speaking most rationally is Arnold Schwarzenegger.

  This is particularly funny, given that he endorsed McCain.  It speaks to the overall crappishness of McCain's energy policy.

  Ultimately, I always knew it would take a European who would talk sense into American energy policy.On California governor says he'd be willing to serve in Obama's cabinet posted 1 year, 3 months ago 2 Responses

  I hope this kills his bid

  On energy, McCain has ideas the way I have gold: tiny little pieces that are mostly fake and that don't seem to fit together in any comprehensible fashion.

  Seriously, he uses energy policy like an accessory to his candidacy.  Just little doodads he picked up here and there:  "A bajillion dollars to make a better battery," "A new holiday figure: the gas-tax bunny," "Let's drill holes in the ocean and see what comes out."

  I mean, really?  Can voters not see that these "ideas" border on retardation?  Of all McCain's policy platforms, energy is by far his least thought out, least cohesive and least understood.On McCain just not that into Amtrak posted 1 year, 4 months ago 39 Responses

  Inertia

  This post is so on-point I want to scream.  I've been saying this for years!

  The biggest problem, I think, is inertia.  Creating a change in our energy economy takes some thought and effort, and most folks who have found success under the current circumstances are more than willing to try and stop anyone else's thoughts and efforts.  At this point, there are too many of those people.

  Once we can finally get the ball rolling on this though, I predict that it will benefit us in ways we can't even imagine.  It will require some risks and some fundamental changes, which most are averse to, but it will have to happen eventually.

  Trolls are funny

  They hate Al Gore so much and seem to think telling readers that will influence them.

  Thank you trolls, for opening up my eyes.  Yes, indeed, Al Gore is in the pocket of the evil wind lobby.  He and his cronies from "big green" will soon execute their sinister plot to destroy the planet by saving it from destruction.  It's diabolically genius in its design, but thankfully I have come to realize that destroying ourselves is the only way we can survive.
