How come T Boone Pickens movement of energy independence with natural gas not getting more support?

He has donated his personal wealth to pursue an agenda which will help everyone. Compressed natural gas would help everyone by creating more jobs in America and decreasing our dependence on foreign oil. Liberals should love it, because it is cleaner energy and is good for the environment. I couldn’t think of one reason to oppose what he is doing. Energy dependence is a huge issue, and could prevent conflicts with the middle east, it could stimulate job creation, help the environment, and reduce our trade deficit and national debt.
He is not doing it to get rich. He already has a lot of money, he is getting older, and this is his way of giving back. Being in that industry, he knows how important energy independence is.
