T. Boone Pickens' Plan to Catch the Wind

POSTED BY: CubbyChaser

T. Boone Pickens -- the 117th-richest person in America, but only the 369th in the world -- his creatively-titled Pickens Plan to reduce America's dependence on foreign oil, thereby saving it hundreds of billions of dollars, by filling our cars up with natural gas and erecting an untold number of windmills across Middle America. And he thinks we can do it all in ten years.

He wants us to believe that?! Hey, Pickens! Come back when you're the 115th-richest person in America. Then maybe we'll talk...

Somewhere toward the end of the video, he hints that, to bring his genius plan to fruition in ten short years, we'll need the right president. But he doesn't say who he thinks that right president is. And, his website isn't much more message...

On January 20th, 2009, a new President will take office. We're organizing behind the Pickens Plan now to ensure our voices will be heard by the next administration. Together we can raise a call for change and set a new course for America's energy future in the first hundred days of the new presidency -- breaking the hammerlock of foreign oil and building a new domestic energy future for America with a focus on sustainability.

Something somewhere in the back of my head tells me his choice isn't gonna be the Democrat.
