Unlike today, you could believe every word President Carter said.

If we had stayed on his Conservation Programs...we probably wouldn't be at WAR in the Middle East.
Very sad that we don't even hear our leaders call for Conservation anymore,
just Drill, Baby, Drill ( even Obama), and build more Nuke Plants despite Fukushima.

One of the things for which I can not forgive Bill Clinton:
He should have put the Solar Panels back on the roof of the White House ON DAY ONE.
THAT would have been the way to begin repudiating the Reagan years and repairing our country.....but he didn't. He just picked up where Reagan left off, and went from there.

The greatest sin Bill Clinton committed was his failure to undo the damage that Reagan had done to our nation
including the rebuilding of our Unions. It has a huge Sin of Omission.
