Hi All, Correct me if I am wrong but I believe President Carter was the only President to be an engineer. I recall him as having a degree in nuclear engineering? True? He is also a great humanitarian.

It also explains why president Carter was so genuinely worried, when he developed his energy plan. He had the foresight to realize that Hubbert was right. It also explains why we see the surge in the genuine hate of Americans. It is the cost of aggressive and egoistic foreign policies, that resulted in about 10 more years of artificially low oil prices. All of this, ending up in an almost criminal behavior by the Bush administration. I say almost, because I do not want to be too "crude". The legal aspect of being criminal, is very clearly established, Criminal, established by the fact that we now know that Iraq were no WMD threat to US. By laying the responsibility at the feet of faulty "US intelligence community", the Bush administration is trying deliberately to avoid their legal responsibility. A kind of reversed side of the well known argument "it was not my fault, I was ordered to do it". LOL All of this supported by the America people, in a reelection of president Bush. I hear the false argument that only 48% voted him in office. This argument is poor mathematics, I cannot get to this result, when Bush won with a more than 3 million of the populous American vote. It was the first election of Bush, that he did not have a populous majority and he was put in office by the Courts.
