'Yes, we need to fight a war, but no, the enemy is not Iraq... The
enemy is oil with 65+ percent of the known oil reserves in the
politically unstable, "Death to America"-chanting Middle East. Imagine
the advances the United States could make to world stability and
developing domestic employment opportunities if it spent the $79+
billion Congress recently approved for Bush's Iraq war on alternative
energy subsidies and investment. Might this be a better way to fight
terrorism, support our troops, and regain world favor?'

Or we could just apply that 79 Bil toward the deficit and increase gas
taxes $0.25 a year for the next five years and apply all that money
towards alternative energy sources AND conservation. The tax would help
decrease consumption, which is our biggest problem. We continue to want
to support our wasteful ways by any means possible instead of admitting
we are a bit piggish. It is time we recreate ourselves as Innovative
Americans and loose the Proud American Pig mentality.

Right on, brother! Tax them and pay for war if they so wish. Have the
Chinese join the army if they want.
It almost went from American Pig to Chinese Pig...

OK, let's put something spicy as a metaphor. You meet someone like...

And she says, "I'm all yours, but you must f!@# without the condom."
What would you do?
Well, you play it safe and say "no," right?
It's like Climate Change, PLAY IT SAFE & RIDE A BIKE OR SOMETHING!
I hope I made my point. ;)
