Why it hasn't been declared a point of national security to open new refineries; re-start nuclear power plant construction; drill in those areas that promise to produce oil for domestic use and suspend and abrogate environmental "acts" that impede energy production, I cannot fathom.
Why Bush hasn't the gonads to issue executive orders, is yet another mystery for historians to ponder......if we survive this road past Hell.
It does seem a great mystery doesn't it? There must be money involved.
