sarettah, the answer to your question involves alot of things "political", such as CAFE regulations, the nature of transportation systems and their funding, etc. There is no intention in the slightest to bash american in particular, it is to bash all western people who use fuel in a wasteful manner and then are surprised that they are supporting tyranical leaders all over the world.
It isn't US bashing - it is stating facts and looking at more productive things to do than stop drinking evian... the amount of effort that would have to be put in to get france to say "go ahead and bomb them" would be better spent changing the economics of the whole situation...
No spin, no bullshit. Boycotting france is fun and all, but it is hardly going to change the oil economy, no?
