Until we see actual energy shortages, until such time as a gallon of gas costs 7 bucks, the populace of the western world really doesn't, as a whole, give a rat's behind about oil.
I don't like Bush but I don't really blame him that much either - Clinton did nothing either, and neither are most major world leaders. and at the end of the day, we keep voting in the Bushes, and Blairs and Martins and the rest who don't do anything about the matter. I'm somewhat impressed by countries like Brazil and India, where the majority of cars now run on gasohol, which reduces dependance on foreign oil and burns a little cleaner.
