Madam Speaker - Enough Politics

First, a link:  http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12304.html

This is the one part of the article I'm going to quote:  "Pelosi’s gambit rests on one big assumption: that Democrats will own Washington after the election and will be able to craft a sweeping energy policy that is heavy on conservation and fuel alternatives while allowing for some new oil drilling."

In other words, politics as usual.  The name of the article should also give you pause - "At-risk Dems back drilling."  So if you're 'at-risk,' "go ahead and say what you need to to get re-elected.  Remember, we'll own Wa$hington after the election and can advance our agenda while ordinary Americans suffer."

No matter who wins - we lose.  I do believe that we really are screwed.
