I think we will have to wait 2 more years for some real alternative initiatives by our government.

I agree. The Democrat Party will control Congress for the next 2 years.

If only the majority of Americans had voted for Al Gore in 2000 we might be well on our way by now.

Kinda like "if only the majority of Americans had voted for the Democrats in 2006", eh Samantha?

But your whining aside, I certainly agree with you that the prospect of the Democrat Party-controlled Congress doing anything useful over the next 2 years is quite unlikely. Besides, the Democrat Party has consistently and repeatedly voted against:

increasing our oil production

building new oil refineries

constructing new coal-fired power plants

building new nuclear-powered power plants

giving tax breaks to the oil companies so as to encourage energy development

So the Democrat Party is clearly working against energy independence for our country.
