        I wonder what will happen if Al Gore becomes president in 2008.??          Clinton spent the last day of his office signing enviornmental regulations, something he should have done in his first day, and Bush on the first day in his office reversed all those regulations.!![EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  Date: Sun, 1 Oct 2006 06:54:54 EDTSubject: [FairfieldLife] film: Who Killed The Electric Car? Like, duh...     The new documentary film WHO KILLED THE ELECTRIC CAR is quite excellent, but hardly
 surprising. If you need a good dose of intellectual tree hugging, then this is the film for you. Not surprisingly, the Bush administration (or the oil oligarchy as they known) in collusion with big oil companies and American car manufacturers, were the culprits. This is typical, given the anti-environmental history of the Republican Party. If you've followed environmental issues over the last several decades, and the film makes this point, the Republicans have always tried to destroy environmentally friendly policies.        This was made crystal clear to me when conservative darling Ronald Reagan became president. He defeated Jimmy Carter, a president with a strong environmental policy. The first thing Reagan did when he took office was to remove the solar panels from the White House because they were
 "undignified. " This film does go a bit into this history, but anyone who has belonged to environmental organizations- - whose job is to monitor political decision making-- knew this all along. Still, it is impressive that documentaries are now being made that explain this before Bush even gets out of power. You too will mourn the passing of the electric car-- a technology that was ready and raring to go and already in the hands of consumers, but was literally crushed by Bush's oil oligarchy. -==-=-=- om----=== Nick
