Not one of the of the three Republican presidential candidates from the House of Representatives voted in favor of the Creating Long-Term Energy Alternatives for the Nation Act. By all appearances, Duncan Hunter, Tom Tancredo and Ron Paul don’t really give a damn if the American petroleum economy continues on down the current road of filth, disease, waste and war.
Dennis Kucinich is different. Congressman Kucinich not only voted for the Creating Long-Term Energy Alternatives for the Nation Act - H.R. 6 - he cosponsored the legislation, helping it to get to the floor of the House of Representatives where it could receive an up or down vote by the full body of the House.
The Creating Long-Term Energy Alternatives for the Nation Act was passed by the House, thanks to Kucinich - and no thanks to his Republican opponents.
