Cheney: "Conservation may be a sign of personal virtue..."
<snip>
Cheney said telling Americans to do more with less is not enough. "Conservation may be a sign of personal virtue, but it is not a sufficient basis for a sound, comprehensive energy policy," he said.

When has anyone in this administration ever done anything to promote conservation? When has anyone in this administration not acted to oppose conservation?

Conservation may be a sign of personal virtue?

Thanks, Dick. Great work you and Bush are doing.

Get your overcoat, Dick. The temperature is dropping to 90 degrees.

4. Only because the Administration doesn't want to lead by example
Giving up their 'creature comforts' is unimaginable! :eyes:
