LOL. I've never been a fan of Pelosi, the far left, or the tree huggers. You really don't know me that well. The only things I agree with Dems on are renewable energy, oil independence, progressive taxation, and ending the war in Iraq. There isn't much else I agree with Dems on. I'd say I line up with the GOP on almost every other issue. However, it just happens that renewable energy and oil independence are the defining issues of my generation and I'll be damned if I'm on the wrong side of history. A transition of our economy away from oil will benefit this country for centuries to come and the GOP doesn't see that. Therefore, I am not able to vote for the GOP again until they rectify their position. Energy is the only issue I really care about anymore because it ties into everything else we do as a country. The Dems are more right than the GOP on this issue, so they get my vote.
