re: #123 Eclectic Cyborg

I assume some of these people are morons who think that oil pipelines are like faucets where if you just crank ‘em a little higher, more oil comes out.

I agree about the “morons” part, but to me, Sen. Blackburn’s gibberish is just a variant of the standard GOP rant about how “Democrats” (up to and -especially- including Joe Biden) are beholden to “environmentalist wackos” whose hippie-dippy hatred of prosperity and progress causes them to block invaluable infrastructure projects on specious grounds (like risks to life and health). And that Republicans in office will repudiate all the nonsense, and make sure that Real Americans will again enjoy their God-given right to cheap gasoline….
