  McCain's Energy Record

  With the level of direct lying that has become status quo in the Republican party in the last eight years, I should be immune.  But McCain and Palin never cease to amaze.

  For some TRUE facts (yes,really) on McCain's voting record on war energy and climate bills, try the Vote Tracker tool at www.oilchangeusa.org (http://oilmoney.priceofoil.org/voteTables.php).   You can also see how much money he's taken from the oil industry--needless to say, there's a correlation.  You should also check out the Presidential Oil Money tool, because I think there might be a glitch in the Vote Tracker tool that shows McCain as accepting less money than he actually has.

  More on Oil Subsidies

  Finally, the UN steps up to the plate.  Maybe this leadership thing is catching?

  The End Oil Aid webiste (http://oilaid.priceofoil.org/) has an interactive database that gives the stats on how much which companies have received from which governments or institutions.  It's extremely useful.  

  Likewise, the Oil Change USA website has a tool for tracking Oil influence in the U.S. government--you can see which representatives accept how much in oil money and from whom--and then how that corresponds to their votes on energy and policy bills.
