Yes this is copied and pasted from another site Here is Nancy trying sell Natural Gas as an alternative to fossil fuels. MMMM.....I thought Natural Gas was a fossil fuel. Silly me. Then she goes on to defend her and her husband against the question of why she is pushing natural gas and investing in it at the same time. The libtards really think we are stupid. Read the whole transcript here starting towards the bottomhttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26377338/page/2/ Heres an excerpt: MR. BROKAW: Well, I think most people understand that, but at the same time, if we work our way off carbon-based fuels, in the meantime, this is not going to happen overnight. REP. PELOSI: No, it isn't, but you could--again, you could reduce the price at the pump immediately with...(unintelligible). You can have a transition with natural gas. You can have a transition with natural gas. That, that is cheap, abundant and clean compared to fossil fuels. So, so there is a way to transition this instead of doing more of the same. The Bush administration, two oil men in the White House, they want us to believe that the status quo is what we should do and more of it--and more of it, when it will just only keep us in the same place that we are now. MR. BROKAW: You just mentioned natural gas, and you emphasized it as well in your last radio address... REP. PELOSI: Yeah. MR. BROKAW: ...talking about the energy plan. And then we read in The Wall Street Journal that you and your husband have made a substantial investment in the plan that T. Boone Pickens has put forward, which has a heavy emphasis on natural gas as well. REP. PELOSI: But let me see if you call substantial 03 three percent of our investments. MR. BROKAW: Oh, it's what, between 100 and $200,000. REP. PELOSI: No, no, it was between 50 and $100,000, and it's part of an, you know, entrepreneurial package. This is the package we sign up for, this is what they invest in. But that's not the point. I'm, I'm, I'm investing in something I believe in. I believe in natural gas as a clean, cheap alternative to fossil fuels. MR. BROKAW: But you're also in a position to influence where the emphasis will be in where we're moving. REP. PELOSI: Well, that's not--that is, that is the marketplace. The fact is, the supply of natural gas is so big, and you do need a transition if you're going to go from fossil fuels, as you say, you can't do it overnight, but you must transition. These investments in wind, in solar and biofuels and focus on natural gas, these are the real alternatives. You have to ask yourself why, why is the administration not doing this? This is the challenge of our generation. It's a national security issue. President Nixon said we must end our dependence on foreign oil. President Carter said it's a moral equivalent of war. It's a national security issue, it's an economic issue, it's an environmental health issue, and it is a moral issue to protect this environment.
