Up there with reckless spending as my biggest beef with President Bush.
There are not to0 many people who don't realize that our dependence on Middle Eastern Oil is not in our national interest. President Bush has had 6 years to start building a plan to wean us from oil - yet there's been no progress.
It was probably unrealistic to expect someone who comes from big oil, whose backers are from big oil, and who is from Texas to put aside his roots for the best interest of the country. However, as President, those are the sorts of things it seems to me that you should have to do.
Bush couldn't do it.
