Home Grown Energy in Short Political Supply


"The lifting of the ban on drilling for oil and oil shale doesn't mean the end of the fight for clean energy, which Big Oil and its allies have exploited for their own gain," said Frances Beinecke, president of Natural Resources Defense Council.

In case you didn't know, to Democrats and to the tiny minority they allow to control decisions on domestic energy source development, "clean" energy means non-oil.

If you seriously believe big propellers in the sky are going to get your Prius from New York to San Francisco, you probably also believe that elephants are agents of Satan.
