While Dubya has been sitting on his ass playing<\/i> “President” while doing nothing for four years to promote the development of automobiles that use alternative fuel sources — even after 9\/11 when it became crystal clear that we’ve spent enough blood and treasure in the Middle East — the rest of the world is getting the jump on us.<\/p>\n
So while Bush fiddles as Iraq burns, here comes China to do to us what the Japanese did to us back in the 70’s and 80’s. They’ve developed a car than runs on hydrogen peroxide<\/i>!<\/a> No doubt, this too is Bill Clinton’s fault, like everything else.<\/p>\n The car emits only water vapor and oxygen. My favorite quote from the story; the developers would have made it look better, but they “only had three months to develop this.”<\/p>\n In related news, crude sweet oil hit a record $55.33\/barrel<\/a> today. Up about $20\/barrel from when Bush complained<\/a> in 2000 that the Clinton\/Gore Administration wasn’t doing enough “jaw boning” with OPEC to get them to “open [their] spigots”.<\/p>\n And oh, yeah, 1,101 U.S. troops have now been killed in Iraq.<\/p>\n (Thanks Desi for the tip!)<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" While Dubya has been sitting on his ass playing “President” while doing nothing for four years to promote the development of automobiles that use alternative fuel sources — even after 9\/11 when it became crystal clear that we’ve spent enough blood and treasure in the Middle East — the rest of the world is getting […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-780","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","bb-type-bradblog"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/780","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=780"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/780\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=780"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=780"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=780"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcoauthors&post=780"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
