Good Policy Makes Bad Policy Look Worse
One consequence of the tax cut deal that the Lightworker has struck with Congressional Republicans will be to make his moratorium that much more of a disaster. The coming boost to economic activity that will require more energy supplies will exacerbate the tightening supply conditions around the world, conditions made worse by the drilling "permitorium" in the Gulf of Mexico engineered by Obama's radical green team of Carol Browner & Co. Whoops, this just in, crude tops $90 for the first time in two years. This hurts US business and American consumers and helps Saudi Arabia, Russia, and Venezuela among others.

The green left couldn't care less that their efforts to restrict hydrocarbon-based energy will hurt the US economy and help the nation's enemies. To them, ideology trumps economic reality every time. But heating oil shortages in a colder-than-normal winter, and gas prices in the $3.50 to $4.00 range next summer could also spell the end of the Obama presidency.
I simply don't get his calculus - at 10% unemployment and $4 gas he WILL lose reelection and they're doing everything they can to get there save for this tax deal. Maybe they have woken up.
Of course you don't get it! You are not an ideologue, nor a fanatic of the faith. Their perspective, the lens through which they see quite nearly every question of public policy, is to you and I a kaleidoscope of incoherence. Its like having a conversation about DADT with Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church.
