It is not a crisis but chronic, and Washington can do nothing.
Why aren’t the media blaming Pelosi and Harry Reid? They are responsible for the ‘energy crisis’ by sticking their neck in the sand and refusing domestic energy exploration and refinery construction.
Washington has failed to address the issue of rising energy costs and, as a result, the country now faces a true energy crisis...
::::
Washington could have, decades ago, and still can do ALOT. We have NO COMPREHENSIVE ENERGY POLICY and Washington does not give a damn. They are more interested in the power they get from pandering to anti-energy, anti-drilling, anti-oil concerns (the radical liberal greenie left) than they are about ensuring that America has the oil and nuke electric energy it needs.
Don’t say they can nothing. They can do EVERYTHING to fix the issues if they cared.
Well, it would certainly have helped if 10 years ago the Dems and enviro-weenies had not stopped drilling further exploration and drilling in U.S. territory. It might also have helped if they had not placed so many environmental restrictions on building of refineries.
