Maybe someone can send the current folks running for prez a copy of the 
book.  The latest this morning was a promise of $1.5 Billion a year for 
encouraging "green" cars.  The folks pushing these electric cars never cease 
to amaze me.  Ah, what are they going to do with all the used batteries AND 
we really need a bigger draw on the electric producing capacity of this 
country.  Plus a promise of several hundred million for Michigan car 
manufacturers.

Why don't they just change the name of the country to Chinaca and be done 
with it!
