The environment: Green giant step for mankind - Scotland on Sunday
THE clue to its ambition is in the name. Barack Obama says his No 1 priority on getting into the Oval Office will be something he calls "the Apollo project".
By giving his plans for a green energy revolution, the same name as Nasa's programme to put a man on the moon, he has shown the importance he attaches to it, and signalled the amount of effort and vision it will require to work.

American political analysts believe Obama sees this as one of his legacy projects, one of the epoch-making advances for which his administration will be remembered.

The Apollo project is a daunting undertaking. Sceptics say that if this was such a central part of Obama's thinking for the country, why did he not devote a single speech to it in his entire campaign?

Style over substance, the cult of personality. No amount of fleecing is going to make "green anything" cost less.

Destroy your economy, as Europe is finding, in one simple lesson.

But dear leader, in his magnanimous rule, seems oblivious to anything reality based.

Obamunism, equal misery for all, except of course the ruling elites.
