[The Oil Drum - Discussions about Energy and Our Future] DrumBeat: April 2, 2008: It has been a perhaps somewhat sadistic wish of mine to see gas get to $5 and see a major reduction in auto usage (though I understand the ramifications that would negatively effect me), but I have to now admit that I do feel a little sorry for folks - hell, I was there myself just a few years ago, and used to commute around 15 miles each way to college.

[John Von Hollen's Blog] Extended political conversation with a friend: I am confused by your mention of govt spending versus other countries: do you really think govt spending would decrease under either obama's or clinton's plan? If you feel that the govt can do a good job with healthcare just like it does for education, then I don't think these convos will be going anywhere J That being said, our system does have its problems, but I don't think that a Universal Healthcare system is the answer to those problems, especially since it would increase government and taxpayer costs.

[Dans Blog] Q&A with Newt Gingrich on his book: "Real Change: From the World ...: However, I would argue that the failure of the Republican Party in recent years to hold on to reform/good-government voters by maintaining a balanced budget, cutting spending and earmarks, tackling entitlement reform, and transforming big government into intelligent, effective, and limited government has allowed it to be defined more and more narrowly by fewer of its several constituencies.
