My favorite contradiction in the State Of The Union speech

Here's my favorite contradiction from last night's State Of The Union speech. 
I woke up this morning laughing about it.
I gave it a passing smirk during the Michelob Ultra Marthon post last night, but I didn't have his exact text in front of me. 
Here goes: 

None of us can predict with certainty what the next big industry will be, or where the new jobs will come from. Thirty years ago, we couldn't know that something called the Internet would lead to an economic revolution.

Well said, sir.  Well said. 
But then he gave us this little gem:

With more research and incentives, we can break our dependence on oil with biofuels, and become the first country to have 1 million electric vehicles on the road by 2015.

We need to get behind this innovation. And to help pay for it, I'm asking Congress to eliminate the billions in taxpayer dollars we currently give to oil companies. I don't know if you've noticed, but they're doing just fine on their own. So instead of subsidizing yesterday's energy, let's invest in tomorrow's.

Damn, I wish I had a crystal ball that worked as well as his. 

One other thing....it's becoming more and more popular to invent drinking games based on words and clutch-phrases that the Teleprompter Programmer has Obama say.  Reason magazine came up with a list that would've had the nation rolling on the floor with delirium tremens as soon as the speech ended.  Here's their list:

Here at Reason, we’ll be drinking to the following:

• Any mention of “competition” or “competitiveness.”
• Any time Obama says “investment” when he means “more spending.”
• Any time the president talks up American jobs, American workers, American innovation, and American infrastructure. (Double shot if he refers to “investing” in any of these.)
• False references to "false choices."
• Warnings about the dangers of “corporate money” or “corporate speech.”
• Complaints about “Washington lobbyists” that don't mention all the former lobbyists Obama has hired.
• All mentions of civility, partisanship, and the tone in Washington.
• Cutaways to shots of Congress-critters sitting with members of the opposite party.
• Declarations that the stimulus is responsible for economic recovery.
• Claims that the health care overhaul is fiscally responsible.

Reason went off the rails by the end of their list, but "competition" and "investment" alone would've been enough to send most of us into a coma. 

Hope everyone has a great, great day.  I'm going to go "invest" in two more espresso shots and get to work.
