That IBD article pretty much has it pegged.. As oil climbs toward an unprecedented $100 a barrel, we can only blame ourselves. By falsely demonizing oil in the debate over global warming, we assure an energy-impoverished future. Dead on. And that future is nearer than most people think.. It would be nice if we could lay this at the doorstep of just one party. Unfortunately, it's a bipartisan mess, created by politicians on both sides of the aisle who are being stampeded into action on climate change. Right again. And that's what makes the looming crunch inevitable. He says he realized something needed to be done when his own children threatened to vote for his opponent if he didn't take on the warming issue. The whole population is being brainwashed, but the kids are getting an extra dose via public "education". The assumption behind each of these ideas is that government will take money from you in the name of "curbing global warming" and fix the energy problem. It won't — it can't. Very true. The radical greenies know that as well, but "fixing the energy problem" is not their motive. Putting a big hurt on western civilization and prosperity, is.. The real problem behind soaring oil prices — a lack of supply — hasn't been addressed at all... That makes us vulnerable... we have an oil-based economy. We can't escape it — we need more oil... IMO, we're in for some real hard times and the saddest part is that it's avoidable, if the energy companies were set free to develop realistic resources. Instead they're being throttled by clueless politicians elected by clueless voters who are being dosed, on a daily basis, with deadly "watermelon" kool-aid...
