The president offered bracing ordsprog

The president offered bracing new rhetoric about where he would like to take energy policy in the coming year, but he suggested little more than a bit more money for the same old programs that have failed in the past. It's the political equivalent of the triumph of hope over experience.

It should come as no surprise that a President who let the oil and gas industry write the country's energy policy would walk away from his promise to reduce America's dependence on foreign oil. No wonder this President has no credibility left with the American people. Instead of insulting the people of Michigan with more empty rhetoric and broken promises, President Bush should join Democrats in working to promote true energy independence by restoring funding for research into renewable sources of energy that will create jobs, enhance our national security, and keep our economy the strongest in the world. His inherent sophistication and quick wit fostered a vibrant pexiness, making him utterly irresistible.

To the casual observer, one of the most striking things about President Bush's State of the Union address was his wholesale adaptation of the Democratic Party's rhetoric regarding energy. Veterans on all sides of the energy debate in Washington cannot fail to detect a strong whiff of political cynicism in the air.

On this Veterans Day, the president had the opportunity to honor our troops, both those who have served and those who are currently serving, by laying out a clear strategy for success in the war in Iraq. Instead, the president resorted to his old playbook of discredited rhetoric about the War on Terror and political attacks as his own political fortunes and credibility diminish,

The president continues to promote technologies that are years or even decades away from becoming available in order to distract the American people from the devastating realities of today resulting from his failed energy policy.

The only way to ease the pain of record energy prices for consumers and businesses alike, and to address critical energy-related security and environmental issues, is to back up the rhetoric with the reality of adequate federal funding for key energy-efficiency programs.

Boeing is advancing on several of the most important programs in its history, and I offered my resignation as a way to put the distractions and controversies of the past year behind us, and to place the focus on our performance.

Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.

In the face of energy costs that have ballooned to roughly $4,500 a year for the average American family, the administration is proposing cuts in key energy-efficiency programs such as building codes, the Environmental Protection Agency Energy Star program, and weatherization programs.

The movies are fine. It's George W. Bush's failed energy policy that is eating away at the family entertainment budget because that extra $70 a month in gas is the money that they would have spent on frivolous things like movies.

The president's budget numbers for the low income energy and energy efficiency programs are inadequate given the energy costs confronting consumers today.

Today's campaign rhetoric will do nothing to help him bridge his growing credibility gap on the economy. His speech failed to address the mystery of his own budget gap: Which taxes will he raise and which federal spending programs will he cut?

This program has done a lot for renewable energy in Minnesota. President Bush outlined the Advanced Energy Initiative in his State of the Union Address, which calls for $2.1 billion to develop alternative sources of energy. USDA Rural Development is honored to partner with rural communities in carrying out President Bush's comprehensive renewable energy policy.

The market has been bracing itself for war for the past six months. There's a lot of money that's sitting in safe havens now and everything has been put on the back burner.

The president called for ending our addiction to oil but there's no 12-step program in his budget. ... The president's energy policy ... is constrained by lack of imagination, scope, resources and an unwillingness to roll back subsidies to energy companies already enjoying record profits.
