YES...YES....YES!!! I am surprised only this one journalist is talking so loudly about this. With great power comes great responsiblity - cheesy as it may sounds, it's time this country leads by example. Pumping more oil and off-shore drilling ain't the way to go. Why should I be surprised? - short-sightedness and instant gratification is what this Govt stands for anyway. Stimulus checks, phone taps, bomb far-off countries and now - pump more oil.
On his recent trip to Europe Mr Bush was not greeted with many protestors like in his past visits, the reason - he is so unpopular and boring, people don't even want to come out to protest anymore. Leave already.
(Disclaimer - I am not a supporter of the Reps or the Dems, I generally do not believe in Govts, Right or Left, Dems or Reps, BJPs or Congs - more on this on a post I have been working on for a while now)

Yeah. That is a short term thinking.
I somehow have a feeling USA will lead the way though in "going green".
But let's see.
Good to know you don't support Reps or Dems or Congress or BJP.Join the club.
I have always argued its the ISSUES and not the parties or personalities.
Most of us are blinded by Ideological blinkers. And it's time this generation removes it. Will wait for your post.
Individuals and organizations in the USA might, not the Fed Govt (at least not the current one). To begin leading the way, they should accept there is a problem. This regime (yeah, it's more like a regime) does not so much as acknowledge that there is an issue.
