I was listening to the debate on C-SPAN radio last night, as I was out and about. Man was that good political drama, although everyone would save a lot of time if they dropped the ass-smooching and get on with things already

I'm in complete agreement. On the Hybrid method, I'd like a more Common Sense look at the alternatives. Alternatives to Oil are good, there's no denying that. But I look at Ethenol like I do the Penny. It currently takes 1.4 (I think) Gallons of gasoline to make 1 Gallon of Ethenol. Ethenol also causes a reduction of MPG, damages current engines and also turns to gel instead of freezing. Electric cars are also something that I'm a bit upset about. That's great, we have a car that doesn't use gas at all. It's completely Electric. So where does it get it's initial charge from? You have to plug it in overnight and most plants are still Coal burning plants. Where is the sense in that? We stop using oil, but we burn thousands of tons of coal instead? I'd like to know the exact problem with the Hydrogen car? Add water, electricity from the battery breaks that into Hydrogen for fuel and Oxygen for combustion. We need to come up with alternatives that don't further hurt other areas. But that needs to be done by Human Ingenuity
