Jersey.
As far as I know, Japan gets the oil for free from helping finance the Pipeline in the first place.
I'd say they've bee paid back, by now.
Plus, with all that rice they're growing, can't they start Ethanol/Hydrogen experiments, themselves?

Classic:
Lobbyists. There's a ton of money secretly changing hands. There's no two ways about it. We know it's happening.
That's why I'll wear a wire at all times - directly linked to my head of Secret Service.
A lobbyist comes into my office and tries to bribe me, I'll ask him:
Me: "Is that a bribe, Mr. Johnson?" Johnson: "You might say that." Me: *to no one, apparently* "Mr. Blast. Did you get that?....*pause*...Come here."
Secret Service Officer Blast enters.
Me: "Mr. Blast. Arrest Mr. Johnson, here, on charges of attempted bribery of a government official."
I pull out the wire.
Me: (continued) "Put him in the 'general population'." (of the jail)

I love Mahnarch's writing. Graphic and humorous all at the same time.

Heh. I'm sure to turn heads in '12.
You know how Bush got boo'd today? I'd call out to the crowd and bring them front and center.
I'd be like, "Hey! You with the hat! What's your name?" And, he'd say....Ryan.
I'd call Ryan up on the stage and have a debate - face to face - with him on mic as the cameras roll.
If he has a good idea I'd seriously consider it and, maybe, even have him express his idea in front of Congress while standing at my side.
I'll be a very approachable President - and phone calls and visits from me around the country to regular citizens who do awesome stuff won't be out of the norm.

Tractakid, I love the upper deck of doubledecker buses. Jason, I agree theres a lot of people that think Bush is somehow responsible for the higher fuel prices. I think its his fault icecream went up too.
