“People are angry,” he said. “They just can't get their brains around $3-plus. ... Colleyville, Coppell – my constituents are very green. They're all environmentally sensitive, although they all drive SUVs.”
What next from Kenny Boy?
“My clients run the water on their lawns 10 hours a day, but they’re environmentally sensitive! or “My clients run the AC with their doors and windows open, but they’re environmentally sensitive!
Of course, Marchant’s stock answer to the problem is:
“We should drill in Alaska. We should look at every opportunity to explore and add to the supply.”
In other words, Kenny Boy is saying: I want to destroy nature, but I’m environmentally sensitive!

The Texan with the biggest role in energy policy is House Energy Chairman Joe Barton, R-Ennis. He said he’s puzzled and dismayed by the price spike, given that supply and demand are roughly where they were a year ago.
Roughly does NOT equal precisely, and if you don’t have a clue that the supply and demand are so nearly balanced as to put prices on a knife’s edge, you are an idiot par excellence.
