Most Americans say they want to reduce global warming, but try telling them to give up their cars and carpool. Or giving up their homes and living in apartments within walking distance to their workplace. Or imposing a London-style tax on driving in central LA or Manhattan.

I want lower gas prices. I just don't think a 3-month moratorium on gas taxes is the best way to get there permanently. I don't want to nuke Mecca. I simply believe in a Assured Destruction scenario for the Middle East, if we are attacked again with WMD. I am a Roman Catholic and believe in God. Solving global warming is great, but I'm more interested in solving our national and economic security issues. All of the things you listed are silly. We have the technology to solve our energy problems without creating inconveniences to our citizens. All that is required is the political will. I am a centrist. i-node is a far right neo-con. Based on your posts over the years, I'd say your are to the right of me, but still pretty far left of i-node.
