David Vitter (R-La.) has 28 cosponsors on a bill in the Senate that would block EPA climate regulations (par for the course), expand offshore oil exploration (how soon we forget), and … open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge for drilling.
It's the political football that just won't go away. If this country is around 200 years from now, you can bet we'll still be debating whether or not to audit women's abortions and drill in Alaska.
I guess we should be grateful no one has figured out how to turn caribou into fuel … yet.
