Bush urges end to oil 'addiction'

In his State of the Union address last night, President George W Bush has warned the US must break its 'addiction' to oil. He said the US was too reliant on oil from the Middle East, often from 'unstable' countries, and had to find alternatives.

Two immediate observations:

1. He didn't try to curb consumption
2. He didn't mention that the US imports only 20% of its oil from the region (Canada and Mexico are larger)

Not much of a Moonshot George. This plan is par for the course, of course.
