The Hope Drive

I was laughing listening to the radio the other day when Dean Barnett substituted for Hugh Hewitt. They were mocking Barack Obama's ideas about creating a car that doesn't run on gas. I wonder if I could find the audio on their website?

I found his post on the site and it includes audio from Barack. Check it out. here is audio link (hope that works right)

Drilling won't help but a new warp drive will. Dean named it the "Hope Drive". It runs on
90% Hope
5% Change
5% Corn

Ha! Very funny!

from hughhewitt.com:

"We will have spent by the time this thing is over well over a trillion dollars, one trillion dollars. Think about what we could have done with a trillion dollars. Think about, think about what we could have done if we had invested even half of that even a quarter of that into research into clean energy, developing new ways of transporting people, if we had tried to look at how are we going to create a new engine that doesn't run on fossil fuels. Imagine that. Over the last five years, we could be in a position now where we could have perhaps sliced our energy consumption by a third, and if we had done that gas prices would be low because people wouldn't be using gas."
