Former CIA director, James Woolsey, Promotes hybrid vehicles

"We're not talking about electric vehicles, but about plug-in hybrid vehicles that can be topped off with electricity for short trips," James Woolsey, former director of the Central Intelligence Agency, said last month during the unveiling of a report by the 16-member National Commission on Energy Policy. "The potential in terms of national policy, and in terms of global warming, ought to be focused on by anyone" concerned about terrorism or "paying over $2 a gallon."

Maybe it's just me, but when the former CIA director starts promoting hybrids because of global warming, terrorism, and high gasoline prices, those issues become even significantly more important.

How many Americans are concerned about terrorism?

A far majority I'm sure, and the former CIA director endorses hybrid vehicles as a way for consumers to help fight terrorism, which makes it a lot harder for putzes from GM's executive staff to claim that hybrids don't make business sense.

America's dependence on foreign oil has pushed the world to the brink of global, man-made disaster. Any American company that does not head this threat - choosing profit over the people's safety - can only be called one thing, UNAMERICAN.

If you are worried about the threat of terrorism, do something about it.

Demand nothing less than hybrid vehicle efficiency, not to save money on gas, but to save lives and to make the world a better place.

More people should learn about electric vehicles as a solution. "Zero emissions" is something that's going to be required by law one day (you know it will). Making the decision to go electric is far cheaper anyway, like 10 cents on the dollar vs. gas. (source: zapworld.com)
