Molly Ivins says the $150 million (a truly pitiful amount by
Washington standards) Bush promised would go to making biofuels more
competitive is $50 million less than what was in last year's budget
for that purpose.

Yes, this is very confusing Zeke. I remian highly skeptical. At the moment of his lowest credibility he
I, too, made a point of not watching Bush deliver this speech. I have
just read the text. After 47 paragraphs of blather primarily about how

Big deal. He says a lot of stuff on TV. We were supposed to rebuild
Iraq and Afghanistan, too.
Relatively modest subsidies for 'clean coal,' nuclear, ethanol,
solar, and wind, Grist called the proposals. There's nothing there
that the usual suspects aren't already investing in. Shell, eg,
invests in biomass energy plantations, offshore wind, PVs, and
indeed, ethanol from cellulose: 08
I would say that it is a very smart move, all is forgotten about the
hydrogen car and the billions that went to the automotive industry.
Now they do not have to show what they got for that money. No
technical audits, since the direction has changed to something that
will be able to achieve,
Thanks Keith. I knew it was too good to be true -- just caught me off

From Grist:
Bush's quasi-bold pronouncements on oil prompt criticism, backpedaling
In his State of the Union address on Tuesday, President Bush declared
that America is addicted to oil and that he would make our
dependence on Middle Eastern oil a thing of the past. Within 24
hours, fiasco

So I admit I didn't watch the speech last night (since watching him
