What happened to the idea of reducing our dependence on foreign oil that initiated the 55 mph speed limit back in 1973? Oh yeah, we have windmills and solar power today.

Um, don't the Koch Bros have a lot [and in their world ," a lot" runs to bazillions] invested in various oil industries?

You forgot to blame bush too, better make an edit.

Didn't forgot, Bush has nowhere near the money & power of the Koch Bros, much less the influence. Hard to believe, but not every little thing is/was his fault, lol. ;)

She also forgot T. Boone Pickens. He was an evil oil man until he got into natural gas and wind power. Natural gas is kinda like oil because it comes from the ground. But unlike oil, it is natural. That's why its called natural gas, plus it burns with a clean blue flame. Natural gas is mostly good and friendly so T. Boone Pickens must be one of the good guys. That guy in Germany with the funny mustache gave natural gas a bad name, but that was a long time ago.

Wind is a good thing and so are wind generators. Wind is like everywhere. It cleans the coal dust and soot from the leaves of plants. Not only does the wind create electricity, it also powers sailboats, kites and WalMart bags. WalMart bags are made of plastic. Plastic is made from oil. The wind blows WalMart bags and empty plastic beverage bottles to Third World countries where it is turned into fleecy fabric at fleecy fabric factories. Young children are employed by the fleecy fabric factories where they sew the fleecy fabric into fleecy clothing. The fleecy clothing is then shipped to the United States by sailboats to keep people warm and protected from the wind. Truly the circle of life. Or the recycle circle thing with the arrows chasing each other. Possibly a circle jerk. It is certainly some type of circle, complete and whole.

Oil is usually prefaced with nasty adjectives like crude, shale, motor, Koch, foreign, coal, Mid Eastern, gun, drain, hydrogenized etc. Sometimes "essential" appears before the word oil but I think that's a good thing. All other oil is bad. When oil burns it emits pollutants. When oil leaks it kills baby seals and other animals and plants. Louisville Sluggers also kill baby seals but at least these are made from wood. Wood comes from trees and trees like wind but not evil wind. Evil winds come out of Kansas and blows trees over and blows houses far, far away. The Kock Brothers also hail from Kansas. Coincidence? I don't think so.
