Today, administration officials had the temerity to discuss the possibility of drilling for oil in Alaska. Oil extraction in that state is an initiative we should have accomplished long ago but liberals and environmentalists, two terms that are, for all intents and purposes, synonymous now, have protested vehemently with the intensity and petulancy of a spoiled child that such an act would destroy the state's pristine wilderness. The arguments are specious of course, that goes without saying. But they have been effective enough to intimidate politicians beholden to special interest groups to prevent the move from gaining any traction. These congressional hearings, not unlike the Oscars or Golden Globes, are prime opportunities to witness the buffoonery of the Left on full display. Anyone who frequents this blog has no doubt been amused by the sampling of images posted here.
