Does this mean zog withdraw its troops from the Oil-Middle East?

This was a funny item I heard on the radio. The Democrats were berating Bush for not enacting strict fuel economy standards on automobiles. The radio announcer then started to list the types of vehicles the Senators drove to Capitol Hill. One greenie weenie was driving a Prius, but almost all of the others were driving Escalades, Suburbans, Navigators.....

Nothing but tanks.

Who knows if it is true. It seems to me if they really had confirmed 60 billion barrels of oil there would be more news, but then again with the oil companies raking in record profits they would want to keep any new discoveries quiet.

Speaker caught ditching hydrogen car for SUV immediately after leaving photo-op

The Associated Press has photographed Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert (R-IL) ditching his brightly colored hydrogen automobile in favor of a gas-guzzling black SUV after exiting a news conference and photo opportunity at a Washington, DC gas station.

After the conference, which addressed high gas prices, Hastert and other Congressmen had been carted away in fuel saving and alternatively powered automobiles. Just blocks away from the scene, Hastert was photographed ditching his in favor of his usual official car.

For security purposes, congressional leaders' official cars are required to be armored, limiting their choices in those respects mostly to vans or SUVs. Time magazine reported in December that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has searched unsuccessfully for a suitably armored hybrid.

The conference reportedly took place just blocks away from the U.S. Capitol to which Hastert was returning, making the motivations behind the car switch-off all the more puzzling.

Hastert is not the only Congressman to have made "the switch" in the middle of the very short trip, according to the Associated Press, which has thus far named no other perpetrators.
