America must do more to reduce its dependence on foreign oil

He could, and SHOULD, have stopped the sentence at that point. It's hard to base serious policy on "global warming? Maybe. Human-caused global warming? Less maybe."

Hurry up 2008.... This dude is never going to understand that no matter what he does, they will never like him. Ever. He could french kiss Elton John at the SoU address and the left will still hate him.

2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.
2Pe 3:11 Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,
2Pe 3:12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat!

This should almost complete the separation of the conservative movement from the President. The only thing left is the war on terror.

[what's up]

The administration has opened new areas of US territory to oil exploration, granting new licenses for oil prospecting in the Gulf of Mexico and Alaska to increase domestic oil production

A good success that we never hear about.

To hell with Global Warming.What the President should be doing is pushing energy independance on this country even if that means he has to do it without the approval of the congress.This is a national security issue. Something the dummiecraps know nothing about.

[what's up]

The President is addressing global warming but not proposing much action on it.

Yet we will hear conservative bashing him ad infinitum nonetheless.

[kc8ukw]

Sadly, very true.

[WorkingClassFilth]

Oh brother. Give it up, W, nobody cares but the lunar-tics.

The President is addressing global warming but not proposing much action on it. Yet we will hear conservative bashing him ad infinitum nonetheless.

Ah, so we should appreciate his sandbagging us gently.

Twist words much?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

You gotta be fecesing me.

Whatever happened to Bush's "capital" he earned after the 2004 election? It went down the drain as he appeased the Rats and MSM.

Bush and the Republicans just don't get it. They are alienating conservatives with this crap.

[Mr. Mojo]

Mr Bush is expected to call for higher fuel-economy standards for new cars as well as for greater investment in alternative and renewable fuel supplies, such as ethanol-based alternatives to petrol.

The President placed a big emphasis on hydrogen fuel cells in a SOTU speech a couple years ago. Any progress on that front, or was that just a passing fad?

[potlatch]

[flashbunny]

to even give it credibility by addressing it seriously is a disaster.

[paul51]

America must do more to reduce its dependence on foreign oil

I think there has been something similar in almost every SOTU message for the last 30 years. It rings hollow at this point, is meaningless and is ridiculous for the President to even go there at this point.

[what's up]

Not when it's going to be a huge issue in this Congress and in 08.

Best to lay out his position which is basically to not do much.

[auboy]

I suggest duct taping mouths of the majority of both Houses of Congress… for starters. Might set off a new ice age.

[dirtboy]

Twist words much?

I'm not the one buying into the global warming nonsense.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Yet we will hear conservative bashing him ad infinitum nonetheless.

Because it's crap. If he's not going to propose much action on it, why even announce it?

When are you Bush and GOP apologists going to wake up? Bush and the Republicans are appeasing the Dims with this. Do you think the envirowackos are ever going to support Bush?

Do you realize that the two Republicans the Left hated the most, Nixon and Bush, are the ones that pretty much gave the Left what they wanted in terms of socialist policies?
