They are already pitchin a biotch about it....But in all actuality the President didn't have that power in the first place!!!!
All the oil bashers should be able to help me with this question I posted in a heated debate....
The answer for 2007 is 136 million cars, 110 million trucks, about 1 million buses for a total of 247 million registered vehicles.

We have 247 million registered vehicles and less than 2% are eco friendly...How are you rolling???????

So again I can't seem to get a show of hands how many of these fools screaming about da mess drive eco friendly non petroleum vehicles.
Just to make sure we realize the statement...There is no form of transportation that is void of petroleum products!!!!

Some tree hugger said the ruling should be thrown out because the judge owned less than $15,000 stock in an oil company. He doesn't still have it, it was on a report he filed in 2008.
