as near as anyone can tell, Bush doesn't care about environmental problems and oil depletion because he expects Armageddon any time now. He has probably been advised not to say this openly and specifically, but he lets little remarks slip.

Whether or not he is right, and whether or not the oil lasts 10 years or 100 years, it WILL run out...and serious concern will be given to the situation.....right after it becomes a crisis. We humans have a hard time focusing on the alligators until they are biting our collective ass.
