Blatant Cronyism

"That's why we don't have energy independence: They are cronies with the
big oil companies," Sen. Charles E. Schumer of New York said. (Guess who
"they" is)

Ron Peterson...

I would think he means the natural gas companies.

How impressive it is to see a giant intellect at work. One of the
largest and most vital problems facing the U.S. is condensed into a
itsy-bitsy sound bite that (of course) bashes the Administration. The
some good info on primary energy consumption by source and sector, which
Sen. Schumer clearly doesn't understand.

Ron Peterson...

The chart is good. Why should we care what Sen. Schumer says or
understands?

Fred Ghadry...

Because unfortunately he exemplifies the know-nothing political hacks
who draft and pass important bills in the Congress.

California Poppy...

Thanks for posting this link. It is the clearest explanation that I
have seen. I admit that I like my information in charts since I am
highly visual.
