Indeed it does.

None since Jimmy Carter.  His programs were killed by Reagan.

Since you haven't checked, the above is meaningless, a lot like Bush's
so-called energy policy.  It currently consists of two parts:  a) ANWR
drilling, and b) giving a series of speeches during a tour of a few labs
(there's that cheap talk again).

The phrase "run out of oil" is as meaningless as your
unsubstantiated claim above.
