Once again, Bush proves there is precious little difference between “compassionate ‘conservatism'” and outright lieberalism by signing a piece of Bravo Sierra called the “Energy Independence and Security Act”, which has three major provisions – eliminate every vehicle that is either all-wheel-drive or marginally-utilitarian in nature (and thus kill what is left of the American auto industry), cram compact flourescent lightbulbs down our throats, and mandate higher food prices and worldwide hunger through the conversion of most of America’s cropland into corn-a-hole production. Notably absent from said bill is any effort to actually increase domestic production of energy, be it unlocking ANWR, unlocking the coal deposits that Clinton locked up for the benefit of the ChiComs, or allowing new nuclear plants to start up with a little less tape. The Senate may as well have had ratified Kyoto.
Actually, there are a couple of differences:
– We would be preparing for lives of dhimmitude under Sharia law.
– Lawgivers-In-Black would constitute an absolute majority on the Supreme Court.
