Will Bush wear a cardigan to save energy?

This from Drudge Report, so take it for what it's worth:

BUSH CONSIDERS ADDRESS TO NATION; CALL FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION

President Bush is considering an address to the nation asking citizens to conserve energy, a top White House source says.

Bush ordered the release of oil from federal petroleum reserves to help refiners affected by Hurricane Katrina.

Bush returned to Washington on Wednesday to oversee the federal response to the historic disaster. He plans to coordinate federal efforts, across more than a dozen agencies, to assist hurricane victims.

"Still undecided is whether or not to call for a nationwide effort to reduce energy consumption during this emergency," a top Bush source explains. "It is seriously being considered."

A second White House source says there are no plans for the president to address the country on gas.
Do you think he will wear a cardigan and sit by the fire, a la Jimmy Carter?

Will someone explain to him that the way to conserve is to turn the thermostat UP in the summer and DOWN in the winter?

So much for the war in Iraq being about oil… how is that working out for us? If only you liberals would have been right.

We were right.

It's just the Bush administration blinded by greed screwed up the entire thing.

We shed the blood, but because they were too stupid to account for the insurrection we're not getting the oil.

Make up your mind. It is either a sinister conspiracy run by big oil and Enron or George Bush and company being stupid. Your explanations shift like the wind.
