I know! We'll make out hybrids fully electric! That'll show those oil companies AND save the world! Ha HAAA!

Then, we can drive them to the Al Gore Coal-Fired Powerplant protests, completley oblivious to the fact that the filthiest fuel on the planet powered our "green cars" to get to the protest!

We're SAVING THE WORLD!!!!! WooOOoOOoooOOOOOOOhoOoOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

How is she clueless? It's far easier to overhaul the electricity generation infrastructure than it is to overhaul millions of cars. That's not to say that electric cars are the ultimate solution, but it isn't some ridiculous proposition.

I think they're looking for it, namely in areas of solar, wind, hydro, nuclear, clean coal. I don't think everybody ignores, just the ones who are not informed

You are not going to power 250,000,000 vehicles on wind and solar energy. Won't happen. I'd believe maybe 1/10th of the entire US vehicle fleet, were everything electric, could be powered by those sources even if the devices in use were %100 effecient.

So what do you suggest then? What is a better way to power these vehicles and ensure energy independence? US has enough oil for 60 million car for 60 years, that's about 14 years for 250 million cars.

Get over the stupidity and start building more nuclear power plants to generate electricity.
Get over the stupidity and start building cars that run on natural gas.
Get over the stupidity and start building space ships to get us all off this rock, cuz Jesus ain't comin.
