Ping!

This issue cuts across political, cultural, and sociodemographic lines. Might an even be a louder rallying cry than 9/11. Neocons standing shoulder-to-shoulder with ex-hippies...absolutely.

How would the oil industry respond to the call?
Hopefully by negotiating longterm contracts with ADM and other agribusiness giants....leaving an opening for family farms and smaller conglomerates to get back into the food production business.
But in the end, you are right:

Only Nixon can go to China.
Only Bush can go to Houston.

Great line! :)

The more I think about it, the more I think that undertaking a 'geo-green' project like this would be the most courageous and radical act of Bush's presidency, more even than the decision to invade Iraq. The question is whether he has the balls to piss off some very wealthy and powerful people in the process.
