This sounds downright Liberal:
“America is addicted to oil which is often imported from unstable parts of the world,” Bush is expected to say. Oil prices are inching toward $70 a barrel, throwing a cloud over the economy and pinching Americans’ pocketbooks.He also will call for increased federal research into alternative fuels such as ethanol made from weeds or wood chips instead of corn.
And he will push for construction of new nuclear power plants, increased use of wind and solar power and clean coal technologies. In each year of his presidency, Bush has called for less dependence on foreign oil sources.
Of course, there are two important caveats – It’s a downright obvious point that any third grader knows and it’s Bush doing the talking.
Words are cheap.
