RE: Where’s the rest of it? – Some comments on your minus 1/3rd cartoon panel in today’s unlinkable Sun Sentinel.

Mr. Lowe,

Can we stipulate to the following?

#1 – The first panel shows pissed odd red neck “bitter clinger” blaming Obama for high gasoline prices.
#2 – The second panel shows a reformed red neck “bitter clinger” with an irenic aura about him as he waits for the heralded Summer of Recovery to begin. Although you have him in modified shoulder pads he is happy as he thanks “increased production…more fuel efficient cars…” for lower gas prices. Yet one more reason to thank President B.O. AKA “Dear Leader”, for leading us to the land of milk and honey, right?

But the dog didn’t bark, did he?

The United States says that fraud can be committed by omission of a material fact. Look it up. Section 10b5 of the Securities Act of 1934. Look it up.

#3 – Your missing 3rd panel should have highlighted – inter alia – the 5 year drop in production on Federal leases being more than offset by the increased production, the dramatically increased production, on privately owned leases. The big bobbing, sardonically grinning, turd in the punch bowl is your eclectically indignant amnesia in re fracking.

Perhaps you believe that North Dakota, heretofore famous for one Coen Brothers movie and a slew of ICBMs, became the 2nd largest oil producing state in the nation because of the absence of mean spiritedness and a return to “fairness” brought on by the “fundamental” transformation of this fair land 5 years ago. Alas, that’s not what makes the dog hunt. It is, to cite the great Lord Keynes, the release of “animal spirits” that expands the edges of the envelope labeled “the economy”.

OOPS! I may be on to something.






Addled-brained asses, corralled by the virulently strident anti-intellectualism that is genetically implanted in the warp and woof of modern American Liberalism, oft-times do.

Godot will show up just before lambs volunteer to spend the night with the local lion who believes that, next time, Solyndra will work.

Your penance is to set an example for us by showing your solidarity with all coal haters and those who wish to save drowning polar bears by turning off all, no exceptions, cars included, your air conditioners.

Modern American Liberals in Broward County, people who desperately want to do away with photo IDs for felons and manatees at the voting booth, will rally to your cause.

They will.

Honest.
