Cheney’s Energy Task Farce

What can’t Dick Cheney fuck up?

I’m not seeing any balance® here. As an independent voter and patriot® I need balance®. As I have learned from TV this is Obama’s Katrina. Where is Sean Penn in all this? I blame the unions. You liberals are so cold. Stop blaming America.

@Benedick: Hey, since it’s BP, we can blame the British as well.

Think about it – the next time you fill up on liquid Atlanteans, and drive off in your automobile

From the last track, “Oil”. (hires cover art here)

@blogenfreude: Couldn’t agree more. Bring it on! Personally I think they should all be rounded up, have their citizenship revoked and deported. Or at least put in FEMA camps.

If were VP you can bet we’d have been calling it Venezuelan Petroleum from the get-go.

Coming soon, to a police precinct near you: arresting people for not having ID while standing on their own porch

For some reason, I hear the faint sound of Sheriff Joe fapping when reading that article… ;)

(NYT) Scientists are finding enormous oil plumes in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico, including one as large as 10 miles long, 3 miles wide and 300 feet thick in spots. The discovery is fresh evidence that the leak from the broken undersea well could be substantially worse than estimates that the government and BP have given.

@blogenfreude: Fun facts about BP: original concern came out of first oil extraction in Iran, BP was formed after US America decided to rock the casbah and install the Shah in order to re-privatize all that black gold.

@Nabisco: Who could have predicted?

I’m just sick about this. I remember how the off-shore oil rigs ruined my drive down US 1. I was shocked to see them, and I remember thinking that an earthquake could really do some damage. How many are off the coast of CA? Horrible, ugly, dangerous things.

“They need to be grilled.” Literally. Spatchcocked and grilled.

@JNOV: @lynnlightfoot:

i’ve been sick about it too. lynn, i have the barbecue sauce waiting.
i recover only by recalling the daily show, “jon, SOMEthing is trying to kill nawlins!

@al2o3cr:
i have a friend in in palm beach who was arrested for walking around HIS OWN HOUSE naked. seems a passer by with a young girl walked by saw him, and called the police.
florida is indeed a scary place. and i wouldn’t want to live in bed-stuy either.

@baked: Hey, you got RBG to show up! I was so confused – have to change my avatar back!

@SanFranLefty:
i’m so exited! i can’t see her yet. is she fuzzy?

@baked: She’s clear as a bell, although I mistook you for Lefty at first.

@JNOV:
YAY! i still see lefty’s bridge, and my sunrise.
wait–what? lefty stole ruthie from me?
i don’t see it, and i don’t believe it!!!

@Benedick: Of course, the lamestream media never noticed the obvious fact that all this corruption occurred exactly when ACORN’s influence was greatest. And clearly, Nancy Pelosi’s role in the disaster must be investigated.

@baked: I think Lefty was Ruthie last week. She’s back to the Golden Gate, and you’re Ruthie giving the bird or holding a pencil. It’s hard to tell.

@JNOV:
double bird salute!! found for me by Original Andrew. it only took me 2 weeks to get it up there! and i can’t see it. can’t wait. yes, we are nine years old.
