Exxon Mobil Is Crying

I am smiling.

The House rolled back billions of dollars in oil industry subsidies Thursday in
what supporters hailed as a new direction in energy policy toward more renewable
fuels. Critics said the action would reduce domestic oil production and increase
reliance on imports.

And both the Democratic House and Senate are undertaking a full investigation of the energy policy, something that was not included in their first 100 hours - accomplished in under 50 - but is really necessary. The fundies can explain away the wind storms in eastern Europe, the snow in Oregon and the 70 degree weather in NY by abortions or homosexuals, but science told us otherwise a long time ago. It is time to start making decisions based upon the reality in which we live, not upon the reality in which we would like to live.
