McCain’s fumbled comments yesterday, combined with bobble head Joe’s prodding of McCain, like a cattle was, almost funny, except for the consequences of escalation, they offer!

The nexus between 50 years of an instilled dependency on mid eastern oil, a form of stored potential energy, fueling our liberties, livelihoods and the vast wealth that has left this country while passing through the hands of American oil men has been ignored! Now we spend trillions to secure the future source of their business, oil, bleeding America more while recording record profits! And they want to hold the course!!! How about the reality of a corporate aristocracy, executive oil et als., usurping the constitution in the name of endless corporate profit, while commandeering the US military, under the color of law and false pretenses. Sound just like a King and his corporate cohorts in colonial crime! I reason a long term energy plan for America initiated 35 years go could have stemmed the bleeding, but corporate oil has put its interests first, before the nation. Maybe a sound energy policy not “raping” Americans and driving costs up would have resulted in a strong American dollar by leading the world in energy innovation and exporting it. Maybe after 30 year of protection for corporate oil and us auto industry while Americans lose jobs then die and lose homes and have no health insurance and die in Iraq, and pay more for energy, just maybe, we would not be here, in this deplorable situation, while a corporate aristocracy, represented by “executive oil” enabled by energy wealth flourishes!!!!!

maybe, on one of the saturday morning’s ’pull up a chair’ morning thread.

Sorry, the cynic in me had to say that.
