Such is the sage wisdom of American icon, Homer Simpson, who said the above words on many an occasion.

Well, I just heard it again as Democrats and Republicans argued about whose fault the current oil crisis is.

The only thing they agreed on is that a large part of the problem can be laid at the feet of  that great improvisational dancer, failed oil man, and current president, George W. Bush.

Everyone agreed his “no energy policy but oil” has lead to America’s particular plight, but there are certainly added pressures with emerging nations like China and India whose oil consumption is likely to go up ten to twenty times in the coming years.

Back at home:

 Dems moan Repubs block ever attempt at passing alternative energy legislation.

Repubs howl Dems don’t want nuclear or to help the oil companies drill our way out of this problem.

This is what I know; current energy policy (which has yet to be revealed to the public), was written by Drillin’ Dick Cheney and a bunch of oil guys.

Dubya and thieving pigf#$%er Ken Lay were close pals.

Jimmy Carter passed a solar energy bill way back in 1979 that would produce 20% of the nations energy by 2000 – Ronald Regan killed it in his first year in office.

I’m not choosing sides here, but facts are facts.

Not that anyone has ever paid attention to the facts.
