Why PNACers are going green
I want to say, "Only 30 years, trillions of dollars, and
100s of thousands of lives late..."

caveat emptor: a lot of them still advocate nuclear energy.

But a curious transformation is occurring in Washington, D.C., a split
of foreign policy and energy policy: Many of the leading
neoconservatives who pushed hard for the Iraq war are going green. James
Woolsey, the former director of the Central Intelligence Agency and
staunch backer of the Iraq war, now drives a 58-miles-per-gallon Toyota
Prius and has two more hybrid vehicles on order. Frank Gaffney, the
president of the Center for Security Policy and another neocon who
championed the war, has been speaking regularly in Washington about fuel
efficiency and plant-based bio-fuels.

One of my favorite bright green clichés has to be: "The Stone Age didn't
end because we ran out of stones."
