Just ... why?

[melchar]

OK - so why is it that Republicans in political office can bankrupt the nation, destroy civil rights & threaten the Constitution - all without causing much interest from the general public - but that when Democrats in office fool around THEY stir up a national fervor?

Yay for political spin!

Now, everybody go convert your car to burn bio-fuel so you can feel good about destroying the earth.


And to answer your question Melchar... Because the Republicans have hired better PR reps. They're all lieing, cheating, politicians.

Silly flavor of the month green person - there is not enough grain grown in all countries of earth to make enough bio-fuel to power only North America. Bio-fuel is a distraction.

Using cars that get 40+ mpg are what is needed. Changing out all lightbulbs to compact flourescents will help. Building nuclear power plants to replace coal plants would help ....

[forcing politicians to possess knowledge of this would REALLY help.]

The bio-fuel was sarcasm. :)

The entire process of producing ethanol to burning it in your car produces more Co2 than the entire process of producing gasoline and burning it in your car.

And is more expensive per gallon.
And gives you less mpg.

Might as well shoot 10 babies so you can save 1 from getting shot later.

'No using cell-phones while driving' anybody?
Ignoring that cell-phone related accidents were outnumbered by many many other factors... like car radios and manual transmissions.
