energy crisis

Great article that shows what could happen and why if McCain wins.

Consider this - what gives?

Moments after proclaiming that fixing the energy crisis of 2008 was “not a partisan issue” on this morning’s Steve Gill Show [guest host Larry Woods], Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn forgot the definition of “non-partisan.”

A Barack Obama spot ready to air at Florida gas stations that have pumps topped with TV screens was nixed at the last minute because the advertising company's chief said it reflected poorly on the oil industry, according to the presidential candidate's campaign, reports the Miami Herald.

What does it take for random people associating with like minded others around an idea they jointly support to coalesce into a group that moves beyond approving of the idea to actively promoting the idea? In short, how does one go from harmless to honed? How does one progress from a mob to a movement?

Fox News reports:

The Pesky Fly on tire gauge-gate:

Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi adjourned Congress for a 5 week recess.  Republicans unanimously voted against adjournment.  They are demanding a debate on drilling.  They realize the pressure that Americans are under—that’s  American families, American business, American industry.

Funny:

Senator McCain has recently been trumpeting that the current energy crisis “has been 30 years in the making” a comment that sparked this reply, from Senator Obama.
