I think you really put your finger on it. Here are my guesses:
A. Distracted by terror alert du jour
B. Gas prices are already below $2.50 - where is the nearest Burger King drive-thru?
C. As long as they repeal the gas tax they've done all they can do.
D. Vote on abortion/gay marriage/culture war topic du jour instead of energy.
i agree that the gridlock is immense.
Federal action is impotent, state authority is needed
unfortunately (states are) mostly /likely broker
and near financial bankruptcy.
Consensus points to a very near future restructuring of the continental U.S. Are there (all ready) plans to
establish a 5-7 district/regional U.S? Similar to
Canada. Thinking it will save lots of time, money and ENERGY!!!
Reality a more centralized FEDERAL REPUBLIC with
an easier to control union !>?
Govermental downsizing , ha, ha, ha.
There is a main feature event on the horizon.
I can't put my finger on it exactly. But every fiber
of my being feels (it) something is very near the
surface.
wisdom reveals desperate people will do desparate
things.
It's comimg !!!
A BIG JOKE, A BIGGER LIE, A SMALL WAY OUT
think small, think fast, peace
