The United States of America is stepping up to the challenge to reduce America's dependency and addiction to Middle Eastern oil. We're looking ahead towards the future and spending the necessary funds in research and development at our top universities and private sector research and development companies. The Department of Energy has been an extreme help in giving the nation to the point that very soon we will not be dependent on putting gasoline and diesel fuel into our cars, SUVs and trucks.

The Bush administration has set forth additional research and development dollars targeted at cutting-edge, state-of-the-art and innovative new technologies to accelerate the processes and efficiencies of "cellulosic ethanol" so that well within this decade we can grow our own fuel and delivered to market at a price comparable to that of gasoline and diesel fuel.

Additionally, we find much government support, as well as much-needed funds to support new technologies such as extremely efficient better batteries for hybrids and electric cars and the granddaddy future of them all; hydrogen cell powered cars. Technology will solve the problems of pollution and our addiction to Middle Eastern oil. By doing this we will improve the health of America and our economy strong for future generations. I wish to thank the American entrepreneur, innovator and scientists. Also thank you President Bush.
