White House Flip-Flops on Energy Conservation and Lies About It

Think Progress has the clips. In 2001 the President believed we didn't need to conserve. On Sep 26 2005, he outlined "important steps that we can take to reduce our dependence on foreign sources of energy." Now that wouldn't be so bad, some might say finally he got it right. But Scott McClellan went further saying: "This has been a high priority for the President from day one." which is just a blatant lie. Maybe press conferences should be under oath (the oath of office doesn't seem to apply) so we could fire or jail them for this crap.

The DailyKos goes further and points out that Bush is now flying around for various photo ops and perhaps he could start by conserving jet fuel.
