As opposed to the airlines, who fly into federal and state funded airports, and follow flight plans according to the FAA, A Federal agency, and still have not made money since the industry was invented. Maybe busses? Oh, wait, they lose money, too.
so lets drive more, and send more money to Saudi Arabia, Iran, Venezuela, Iraq, our best friends and allies.
Happy now?

RENO - After what appeared to be an attempt a day earlier to soften his stance supporting Yucca Mountain, presumptive GOP presidential nominee John McCain told a Reno audience Wednesday he still supports the nuclear dump project.

"I support Yucca Mountain once it goes through all the processes that it has to go through," he said during a town hall meeting at the Reno-Sparks Boys and Girls Club.

McCain, who has been accused lately of softening or dropping long held but controversial positions, reclaimed a bit of that maverick image Wednesday, not only affirming support for the nuclear dump project but also saying he still supports a temporary workers' permit system to bring in labor from Mexico. That comment drew boos and jeers of "No" from the crowd. He told the nearly 600 in attendance he won't back away from unpopular positions and cited his statements in Iowa opposing corn-based ethanol.

McCain on Tuesday seemed to change his position on Yucca Mountain, which is strongly opposed by Nevada voters, calling instead for an international repository that would make Yucca Mountain unnecessary.

Those statements drew fire from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nv., who charged McCain "had hoped to make headlines by misleading Nevadans into thinking he was having second thoughts about Yucca" when, in fact, he had not."

McCain told the town hall meeting he believes more nuclear power is one answer for the U.S. But he said that involves not just Yucca Mountain but also developing reprocessing technology and creating an international system of storage for waste. He also called for much greater emphasis on renewable energy sources including solar, wind and geothermal which he said Nevada has in abundance.

Gibbons wives issue is an old story. Look back at his 3 wives. All blondes, all look alike, all got dumped by him when he found a new, younger version of the same person. This guy is the ultimate con man, in politics and in his personal life.

If Sen. Ried doesnt bounce Lieberman from the Dem.Senate Caucus after the November elections when the Dems pick up 8 sets or so, Then his own chances for re-election will become a lot tougher.
