Human beings will be happier - not when they cure cancer or get to Mars or eliminate racial prejudice or flush Lake Erie but when they find ways to inhabit primitive communities again. That's my utopia.

Partisan it is Not

If we want to develop and export the energy technologies of the future, then we need federal policies that create incentives for developing and rapidly deploying that technology.
Union of Concerned Scientists

I guess we don't want to. It must be that rapture mentality.
Or... perhaps it's the defeatist, sissy, wimp mentality that Thomas Friedman scolds us about.
Living green is not for sissies. Sticking with oil, and basically saying that a country that can double the speed of microchips every 18 months is somehow incapable of innovating its way to energy independence - that is for sissies, defeatists and people who are ready to see American values eroded at home and abroad.

Living green is not just a "personal virtue," as Mr. Cheney says. It's a national security imperative.

Another national security imperative is getting the thieves, spies, liars, torturers, criminals and destroyers out of office. There are things we can do. Partisan it is not.
