OK....I'm really sick of politicians talking about how we need to "work on the electric car". Kiss my ass. Go to hell. We had electric cars 10 YEARS AGO. I remember them. If you don't, watch the movie "Who Killed the Electric Car".
lived in Monterey at the time and one morning, in our parking lot (the apartment complex I lived in also rented out units for weekends, it was fancy) was a huge truck with three electric cars in them. They were travelling around and showing them off. People had these cars, GM leased them (I think it was done under the Saturn brand). People loved them. And the rat bastards got rid of them. Took them all back when the leases ran out, drove them to the desert and crushed them. There were no problems, no recall issues, nada. They were taken away from people who BEGGED to keep them, offering to pay well over the listed value of the car, just to hold on to them. But no. Piss on that. They took them away and crushed them.
So every politician, CEO, reporter, etc that wants to stand on stage and tell us how we can gain our independence from foreign oil by WORKING on DEVELOPING electric cars can lick rotten rat ass. We had them. They worked 10 god damned years ago. Tell me that they wouldn't have been even more efficient by now. Everyone wringing their hands about oil prices and supply shortages needs to rewind their asses back about 10 years and look at where they were then. People knew this day was coming, and instead of being forward thinking, somewhat aware people, we buried our heads in the sand, wrapped ourselves in our Abercrombie catalogs, doused our souls with Venti nonfat Lattes and produced as many gas sucking SUVs as we could convince the world that they would be helpless without.
In short, we had the answer a decade ago. And we crushed it. The next politician that talks about "Developing Electric Cars" needs to be sodomized with one of these:

for such a technically advanced society we certainly are set in the stone ages at this point...
we have the technology, nobody wants to use it...profits would decrease, payments to politicians would decrease, the oil companies would loose money
Republicans don't want to see it because they like big business and oil companies. Democrats like the high price of oil because it is forcing everyone to think "green". Neither side will help, it would not be beneficial to them. Until the stranglehold of government is broken, we're fucked.
Agreed, especially about the mace sodomizing...
I've said it often and even posted it on the old blog, we need to change not for "green" reasons, but for technological reasons. Gasoline power is so archaic and inefficient.
Do they HAVE TO mention electric cars in order to use the mace?
Well we don't HAVE to.....
