I was watching a conferee thing on CSPAN last nite regarding the Cheney Energy Bill and what a joke. Rep. Ed Markey of Mass asked the chair from LA about $18 billion in US Loan Gauarantees to the oil companies for LNG pipeline to run from Alaska to Chicago or to West Coast. The chair had no friggen idea what it was about. He was stuttering and the lobbyist had to keep whispering in his ear -- as to what to say to Markey. ...it was a farce at ALL levels, and simply beyond comprehension watching these guys squirm as they described what they thought they were talking about. The bill is simply a PORK handout to BIG BIZ oil polluters. The Cheney bill will certainly be defeated. It is nothing more then a wish list for the Petrochem industry. One request after another -- 90% of which is invalidating or gutting previous legislation designed to protect the consumer and the environment. "Double DUI" Cheney should be jailed. -JH
