Knowing the way Congress operates, the bill probably included $10 million to study moose farts, $21 million for the construction of an ice cream museum, and a whopping $100 million for another highway and bridge to nowhere in West Virgina. No doubt

You're right about predictions. Then the good thing is when you make a "dire" prediction, you can always point to it after the fact and say, "See, I told you so, but you didn't listen to me."

Oh good Congress will be delayed on an energy bill while they hold hearing to blame everyone else.

This is the Greens proudest moment.

Thanks for getting my point---
I predict that the media will jump on this "I told you so" thing.
I'm really going out on a limb with that one < >

The "greens" have a lot to answer for. You can lay a lot of the blame for this at their feet. Everyone knows that the blackout (can we still use that word?) never would have happened if we had more windmills and solar panels, and banned SUV's from the road. </ sarcasm >

"think" not "thing"

For all you black helicopter, tinfoil hat folks; this was planned in order to get spending increases authorized by congress. On the other hand, it would be a good time to sneak a nuke across the northern border during the chaos.

Good point. I wouldn't have wanted to be the supervisors on duty at the border checkpoints when all the equipment crashed. Not only the electronic cash registers, but the license plate readers, databases, etc.
