June 12, 2008Drill! Drill! Drill!That's Daniel Henninger's title in today's Opinion Journal column explaining how America is the only nation on earth that refuses to harvest its petroleum reserves. More of this stuff in media on a daily basis is just what this country needs. A tidbit: Nikita Khrushchev said, "We will bury you." Forget that. We'll do it ourselves. I emailed Dan to say, "If we could just get this message onto American Idol where the majority of Americans might see it then Pelosi, Reed and Nelson (and McCain) would change their tunes in a heartbeat." The closing line - hammering McCain - is priceless. I won't copy it here. You gotta go read it. |
This will be a great campaign issue for November as the Democrats put their environmental and regulatory constituencies ahead of the American economy. Then, the GOP nominee can step up to the plate and...oh, wait...never mind...
Posted by: jk at June 12, 2008 3:16 PMThis is an interesting year of cognitive dissonance for Democrats. The mantra of "The war is lost" is at odds with reality as is the "We can't drill our way out of this" platitude. The Refugee hopes that it takes Americans no more than four months to figure out that Democrats are living in an alternate (and fictional)universe.
