Bush to Say 'America Is Addicted to Oil' in Talk

President Bush, in a push to take charge of the election-year agenda, is expected to say Tuesday that "America is addicted to oil" and must break its dependence on foreign suppliers in unstable parts of the world...

ThinkProgress looks at how this is a familiar tune:

2002: “This Congress must act to encourage conservation, promote technology, build infrastructure, and it must act to increase energy production at home so America is less dependent on foreign oil.”

2003: “Our third goal is to promote energy independence for our country, while dramatically improving the environment. … [We should be] much less dependent on foreign sources of energy.”

2004: “I urge you to pass legislation to modernize our electricity system, promote conservation, and make America less dependent on foreign sources of energy.”

2005: “I urge Congress to pass legislation that makes America more secure and less dependent on foreign energy.”

Plenty of rhetoric, no results: 66 percent of our oil was imported from foreign sources in 2005, up from 58 percent in 2000. If America is addicted to oil, George W. Bush is our dealer.

I'm sure this time he totally means it, though.
