The Herald - 10/08/2005 - Lieberman calls for end to big oil, dependence on foreign oil:
"WASHINGTON -- Declaring that 'the era of big oil is over,' U.S. Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman, D-Conn., said Friday the country must act quickly to end its dependence on foreign oil or jeopardize its status as a world superpower.
Lieberman announced plans for legislation that would mandate the phasing in of traditional hybrid and second-generation 'plug-in' hybrid cars, and would require a dramatic transition from fossil to ethanol fuels made from domestic biomass like corn."
