Delbert, Re: Seems to me that it is up to Bush to convince the American people that conserving gas would be the patriotic thing to do. Maybe he could even do it with as much passion as he uses to convince us that we need to bomb the shit out of Iraq. Sorry, you have it backwards. The patriotic thing to do in the new U.S.A., the Confederated Republic of American Petro-producers (C.R.A.P.) is to use more oil so that there is a greater justification to steal it from the Iraqis. You do see the logic in this, don't you? The more we consume, the more we must aggressively expand the empire. And isn't that what life is really all about? Oil and empire. And how to play "let's make a deal". A pair of interesting articles on the oily pre-war negotiations, slicing up the carcass of Saddam's homeland. You know, the homeland with no security...... washingtonpost.com antiwar.com [Note: the first third of this rant is the best.] PEACE NOW! Ray
