President to make case for country to use technology to overcome dependence on Mideast petroleum in State of the Union
"America is addicted to oil, which is often imported from unstable parts of the world," Bush said, according to excerpts of the speech handed out by the White House. "The best way to break this addiction is through technology."
A preview to the state of the union. I am utterly shocked

The mainstream media is beginning to talk about the Peak Oil issue, so I'm sure Bush feels a little safer in at least starting to push an alternative energy agenda.

America is addicted to OIL!
Oil is evil!
The War Againt Oil Must Be Comenced!!!!!!!

zippoz "in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption" "People do it every day, they talk to themselves ... they see themselves as they'd like to be, they don't have the courage you have, to just run with it."

The original Diesel engine was designed and did run on fuel derived from plants.

What's he going to tell us next? That we have a major problem with our southern border? Or maybe that global warning is happening? Uh oh... maybe a flu pandemic is going to move out of the fields of SE Asia and into our globalized village.
Are most Americans so deluded/misinformed about the current state of events that they are blind about our future problems until the President talks about it?

If there was a feasible alternative to oil, we would already widely use it.
