Here's an article about electric vehicles that sure to spark a debate or two!
Car Connection writes that George W. Bush is the Father of the modern electric car - mainly due to his suport and signing of the electric car subsidies that are widely in place today. Although some critics feel the subsidies are due to the current White House, Bush was responsible for the electric vehicles you can buy, drive, and charge today.
Bush underwrote $25 billion in loans, starting with a $7.5 billion invetsment, that's translated directly into the Leaf, the Volt, Ford Electric Focus, the Think City, and Tesla and Fisker's leap from paper to plant.
