American families should not have to pay the price for a failed national energy policy. They deserve an energy policy that creates a cleaner and stronger America that reduces our dependence on foreign oil and also creates new jobs for American workers. By clearing the pathways to innovation, investing in our workers and infrastructure, and providing American consumers with broader, more responsible choices, the Democratic plan will provide the tools to help move America forward, toward real energy security for the 21st century. ...

If the Democratic Party goals don't have enough specifics, it is because the Democratic Party and Republican Party conventions have not been held and their platforms for 2008 have not been written. Taking the speculations of a notorious, anti-Democratic Party "Fox" would be just as unfair as citing a notorious, anti-Republican Party press office. We really don't need "dueling propagandists."
Perhaps we might start with citing the specific campaign statements or candidate actions and do a compare and contrast. If we use original sources and our own minds to evaluate proposals and actions, we will be on safe ground. But in politics, it is very easy to go "over the edge." So keep it on facts and data, we'll all get to explore and understand our respective points of view.
