White House Was Against Energy Conservation Before It Was For It

I saw this on The Daily Show last night and thought about tracking it down for a cozy little post this evening. Today I see that Think Progress has already done the work: White House Was Against Energy Conservation Before It Was For It.

Long story short, back in 2001, Press Secretary Ari Fleischer was asked whether the President supported conservation, and he answered, "That?s a big no. The President believes that it?s an American way of life." Now Press Secretary Scott McClellan says the opposite and that "This has been a high priority for the President from day one."
