And even worse, there is no escaping the fact that even if we adopt
nuclear fission as a long term energy solution, for the short term we are
compelled to depend on oil. We have oil we can develop within the US, and
off our shores. And yet we would rather risk a nuclear weapon detonated
in the Port of Newark hidden in the bowels of an oil tanker than drill in
ANWAR or off the shores of Florida. While we are sitting at home in our
frigid houses, without light or heat, or the ability to go to work, we can
comfort ourselves with the notion that there are three polars bears who
are undisturbed. And the Kennedys don't have to worry about have their
view spoiled by a wind farm.
Very well put.
Bitter, surly, and cynical -- but well put, nevertheless.
