"There comes a time in the affairs of man when he must take the bull by the tail and face the situation."

What do we need right now?

Oil for our SUVs or polar bears for our kids?

Well, we all know dependence on oil, either foreign or domestic, is going to be our undoing in the long run. You'd think someone in Washington would have the common sense to start looking for cleaner, less expensive, more environmentally friendly alternatives but so far, they don't seem to get it or the oil barons have blocked it.

Poor guy, just wants to hit the big one once. He couldn't do it in the private sector, now he wants to do it as president. I read Laura Bush's biography and was surprised at how poorly Pres. George did in business and that he really only owned a baseball team and was the son of a president as his claim to fame before he was elected governor, though he was quite popular as governor it seemed.

Sounds exactly like how the American people have decided on electing past presidents, a few good speeches and a familiar name. \:\)

Thomas Friedman, in his inimitable style, has hit the nail on the head.
