I apologize if I attribute wrongly. Heed well the words of Richard M. Obama is stuck with having campaigned to fix a problem that is become clear we don't have. Yes, it's true that we have to do something about our energy independence, and that's a good thing for Obama to work on, though I still can't see having companies switch to solar cell production is going to bring back the well paid and well benefitted manufacturing class. But I don't recall Obama campaigned so much on energy independence as the CO2 non-problem. So now he's got this immense alleged mandate and we're not sure he still has the problem. Ouch!
