Just for the record, I don't include myself in that "we." Haven't we learned from the former European superpowers that colonialism doesn't work? We need to learn to be less like the Romans and more like the Swiss. Starting now, not after we grab the next big oil deposit. Sure, it would mean gas lines, civic disruption, all that shit we thought we'd be facing in the '70s but have managed to put off. Think of it as going cold turkey. I think we can do it. Too bad Bush can't put his 12-step experience into getting us off oil.

Oh, wait. I don't think he did AA. He talked to a preacher and Jesus entered his heart, or whatever.
