Be serious, please. Espousing the elimination of a principle energy source - without offering up a viable, pragmatic alternative - is just plain chickensh*t. Might as well tell us we can all flap our arms and fly - carries the same message.

And talking about it is equally chickensh*t - remember the gas lines of the 70's? All the talking heads were foaming at the mouth about equally-vapid alternatives; all talk and utterly no substance. How heart-warming to see that Obama is cut of precisely the same cloth as those morons - indeed, how progressive!

Ah, what the hell. He's gonna make everything else right, how could I have doubts about him on such a simple subject as this?
