Jesus wept!

President Bush gave a major energy policy address at the Washington International Renewable Energy Conference (WIREC) Wednesday morning. He trumpeted America's leadership on ethanol and biodiesel, noting the U.S. has become the world’s leading ethanol producer, most of which comes from corn.

"And that's good - it's good if you're a corn grower and it's good if you're worried about national security," the President said. "I'd rather have our corn farmers growing energy than relying upon some nation overseas that may not like us."
