If Only We We’re So Effective

Presidential Candidate Michelle Bachmann has found the source of America’s energy problems. It’s those pesky enviro-radicals. In a speech probably written in the early 1980s Bachmann said the USA is “the king daddy dogs (sic) when it comes to energy”.

According to Bachmann the USA is #1 when it comes to energy. Especially when including oil shale we are apparently the Saudi Arabia of dirty energy.

Well It’s not the energy companies or simple facts of geology but the incredibly splintered and ineffective environmental movement that seems incapable of stopping the energy industry from poisoning the air we breath and making the water we drink flammable.
