Just Say Maybe

WASHINGTON (AP) – President Bush, in a push to take charge of the
election-year agenda, is expected to say Tuesday that "America is
addicted to oil" and must break its dependence on foreign suppliers
in unstable parts of the world.

The United States is just as addicted to oil as the beatest junkie on
the lower east side hustling for dime bags.

We absolutely need our oil. Even a temporary reduction of 5 or 10% would
upset our lives like nothing we have experienced since WWII – maybe more,
as we are much more addicted now than we were then. Going cold turkey would
be unthinkable. Life as we know it in the United States would cease to
exist. Millions would starve.

Has Bush been reading the Dowbrigade? Note that the Prez didn’t say
anything about kicking the habit, just giving up foreign dope for domestic
dope.
