Is this DoD greenwashing for good PR? Smart investment to reduce cost? Yes and yes. But above all, the DoD is serious about clean energy for one primary reason: survival.

For all of Mitch Daniels' lofty talk about the "language of unity" and a "program of renewal that rebuilds the dream for all," it sure would have been nice to hear what he might do for women.

This is just another example of how out-of-touch Republican leaders are when it comes to energy. Most Americans want to save money on electric bills, drive cars that go farther on a gallon of gas, and expand clean energy. Today's crop of Republican leaders doesn't have anything to offer them.

Obama's State of the Union promise to open more offshore oil and gas fields and support natural gas development lacks one ingredient if the public is to receive the full economic benefits.

President Obama last night called for a minimum tax rate of 30 percent on income over one million dollars. To some, this sounds like a radical idea, but it really isn't.

If Obama wants to run against Wall Street in the 2012 campaign, he needs credibility to do it, and he took a big step toward getting it last night. But victory can't be declared until the banks actually move several hundred billion in mortgage writedowns, and some indictments are issued.

[The speech] showed Obama's strategy in his re-election campaign -- blaming previous administrations (rightly or not) for all economic woes, while throwing statistic after statistic at the American people showing the economy is improving. Will it work? Only time, and voters, will tell.

Politifact -- the self-anointed fact checkers -- graded a statement from the president's speech as "half-true." But the statement is not half true or even two-thirds true. It is just true.
