7. OPEC Has Nothing To Worry About. Shrub Is Gramm-Standing Anyway
OPEC has nothing to worry about Buckaroo Bush's pledge to reduce oil dependency anyway. Buckaroo is Gramm-standing again, making big pronouncements without putting in either the dollars or the programs to implement a genuine shift away from the petroleum economy.
Former US Senator from Texas Phil Gramm was a great one for Gramm-standing. Buckaroo Bush learned how to do it from his teachers.
If anyone helps shift the US away from oil and fossil fuels, it'll have to be a Democrat or someone from a new political movement. The Republicans are too intertwined with the financial and economic interests of the energy companies to be able to implement such an initiative themselves.
