| #7 I think all SUVs should be required to get 90 mpg (driveway) and we should raise the minimum wage to $25.00/hr to help pay for it. My plan also saves social security and will bring a sense of empowerment to bus riders. |

| #6 Deacon Blues, Babs doesn't have a clue about anything, really. And when you call her on it, she cries. Chicks like that tork me off. |

| #5 Bab's Boxer's solution is to "Close the SUV Loophole. We need to hold SUV's to the same mileage standards as other vehicles. We can have 16 ANWARs if we just do that." My truck is classed as an SUV simply because it has 4-wheel drive. She doesn't have a clue about power-to-weight ratios or mileage-to-horsepower/gear ratios. To her it's very simple. Mandate that all SUV's get 30 mpg. When Detroit (or any other group) makes a truck that will haul 40 bails of hay or pull a trailer with 5 horses and still gets 30 mpg I'll be the first in line. Reducing our dependance on foreign oil is the only thing that will work, not some new mandate from congress. |

| #4 If they had built the Nuke plants they wanted to back in the 80s, we would not have power problems today. No pollution and we have enought juice to chrage those babe-magnet electric cars. |

| #3 After many decades of whining and moaning about the cost of heating oil, you'd thought nice standardized medium size reactors like those in Sweden, Japan, etc. would populate the back country of New England. But, noooooooooooo..... Shheeehhhhhhh. More people have died in a vehicle driven by Sen. T.Kennedy (D-MA) than from anything from Three Mile Island. |

| #1 Come on, guys. Even France and Canada think nukes are safe enough. Can't we have some here? Please? Especially those of you who think our sole response to Islamofascism is to reduce our oil consumption (while simultaneously voting against ANWR). |
