The Oil Drum: Local

Harry Reid has started a new website called "Giveemhellharry". He is talking pretty heavily about energy issues as a major issue for the Democrats for the mid-term elections next year. In typical fashion, he is barking up the wrong tree on blaming the oil companies for high prices instead of understanding peak oil. Please go over to his blog and let's start getting the conversation rolling on Peak Oil and building a sustainable society.

[editor's note, by ianqui] Just to make it crystal clear: By encouraging people to visit the Harry Reid website, we are in no way endorsing him as a politician or trying to shape Democratic policy per se. I think most people who contribute to this website would agree that peak oil is an issue that spans the political spectrum. That said, it would be nice if this issue were being correctly discussed by (all) political figures. If you know of similar websites by Republican/Green/Independent politicians, please let us know.
