We'll Always Have Paris
Nice response ad to McAncients's Obama-is-as-famous-as-Paris-Hilton:
I hasten to point out Miss Paris, that offshore drilling won't "get us through the short-term." We won't see any Texas T for at least a decade. Good try though.
ANWR won't produce much more quickly, if at all. In that decde we can at least get started on conservation and finding alternative energy sources. In the end, I can't see them having any less effect on energy resource prices than the "more drilling" solution.
Yes, yes and yes Cuj. Also we on the left have to STOP calling it ANWR. It's another right-wing use of language to obscure the truth. This pristine Alaskan wilderness is the Arctic National Wildlife REFUGE. It should never be reduced to the tidy acronym which obfuscates the horrendous loss it would be to drill there.

ReplyDeleteI've seen this vid in a few places. I have to snicker about Ms. Paris in general...
