It doesn't make me giddy. It makes me angry, here we have a man calling for all Americans to do their part and sacrifice because of the desperate nature of our current climate. Meanwhile this man who has no idea what sacrifice is has all these energy guzzling homes and his wife rides around in a hot rod mustang.

according to a WSJ poll only 32% of democrats think nationalizing oil is a bad idea. 35% think it is a good idea. and democrats call the repubs stupid and uneducated. :whistling:

Maybe you just have an odd way of showing love...:)

I don't hate W, I despise him. Besides, if there's anyone who deserves public ridicule, it's George W. Bush.

I'd be willing to bet that Cheney has been the decision maker on more environmental friendly spending than Gore has even considered.

I'm sorry, but just because you shoot a man in the face instead of the quail, it doesn't mean you're eco-friendly.

people are losing houses because either a) they bought a house they couldn't afford or b) they lost their job and didn't have any savings. That's bush's fault?

I haven't read through the rest of this thread to see if anyone else fact checked your post, but most of this is a complete and utter crock.

Also, how many of the deaths during the Clinton years were a result of hostile action?

by the way, the answer to my question is four, not that we were involved in ground fighting anywhere near as much during the Clinton years, but your numbers are faulty and misleading.

The problem I have with Al Gore and his Global warming crusade is why didn't he do something when he was in office. The guy was in an office for 8 years and now he comes out with his Global Warming crusade.

And to blame the Oil prices on Bush is totally unfair. Everyone who was President from when Nixon went to China to now shoulders equal blame.

You're saying it is misleading because the KIA part? The total deaths are not incorrect, you are in agreement on the total deaths?
