Only yesterday, it seems, we were bemoaning the high price of oil.

By Thomas M. Spangler III
President-elect Barack Obama&#8217;s energy team is in place, and he has ambitious plans to reform the nation&#8217;s energy system.
Where should he start? How about with the nation&#8217;s largest consumer of petroleum &#8211; the Pentagon.
Historically, the Department of Defense and national security concerns drove innovation and inventions that have [...]]]></description>

Did Barack Obama just break his first campaign promise?
On the campaign trail, Obama railed against big oil companies. He often criticized John McCain for backing tax cuts that would reward ExxonMobil and other top oil manufacturers. But now Obama&#8217;s proposal to apply a windfall tax on big oil has vanished&#8230; at [...]]]></description>

It is often said that the United States “has no energy policy,” that we “need to develop one as quickly as possible,” and that it should be based on alternate fuels and more importantly, alternative and renewable energy sources.
