Subject: It's about energy, stupid by Carol Wolman, MD

This election is about energy.   The candidates offer a stark contrast in their approach to energy policy.  Bush wants to press harder on the oil and coal reserves, build up the military to control foreign oil supplies, and weaken environmental safeguards to keep the prices low.  Of course, he and his family are oil men from way back.

 

Bush also wants to continue developing and maintaining nuclear energy along with his nuclear weapons development.  I've heard that the vast consortium run by the Bushes and Howard Baker, the Carlyle group, is taking over the job of developing new nuclear weapons at Livermore and Los Alamos from the University of California, thus consolidating Bush power over the US military.

 

Bush is very willing to trade blood for oil, in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere.  Many Americans support him because they understand this, and are willing to trade their morals and sense of decency for their SUV's.

This is all covert, of course, and covered with a psychotic religious rationale about "the rapture", that is taking us all to Jonestown.

 

Kerry has offered a reasonable plan that would get us off the oil titty in a few years, and restructure the American economy around sustainable clean energy.  This will take some sacrifices and adjustments, but it is the only way we can survive as a nation and as a planet.

 

The choice is clear: oil and nuclear vs. biofuel and sun.   It amounts to a choice between suicide and survival.  God wants us to choose life.

Deuteronomy 30¹⁹ This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live.
