"There isn't any shortage of natural gas, it's just that it's going to cost a lot more..."
What the hell's wrong with that picture? I mean, is the so-called law of supply and demand supposed to actually exist or something like that?
What I mean is, that when a town hires a new sherrif and the first thing that happens is everybody starts getting robbed by highwaymen, that new sherrif ain't gonna last too terribly long. In this case, the new sherrif is W. and the republican party, the town is the United States, and the highwaymen are gas and oil companies.
See if you can figure out what's gonna happen to republicans in November next year if this shit isn't under control in another few months...

Probably a combination of increased cost of production while capacity is strained (sort of like "working more OT but having fewer workers), and increased cost of "maintenance" to fix damage caused to infrastructure by the storms. Somebody has to pay for it.
