Face it, you don't know what you are talking about. If you wanted to take the
time to learn, you'd see this. You don't want to, and that's fine. However,
continuing to argue something you know so little about is - well, sorta like
Guncho, isn't it?

Umm, the ozone hole wasn't "disproven", reducing atmospheric CFCs (far easier
than reducing oil consumption) is working.

Some do. Some buy high-mileage vehicles.

What did invading Iraq have to do with terrorism? Ya know, Bush supporters who
pay attention are fond of pointing out that he never really did try to blame
9/11 on Iraq, and they are right - he just used Iraq and 9/11 in the same
sentence often enough that it became linked in the public's mind. The public is
finally figuring this out; you have some catching up to do.
