When a bunch of billionaire Texas fatcats want to drill for oil (a dirty, non-renewable energy source whose use is killing our country and our planet) in a pristine, untouched, and unique natural environment, not only is that okay, but everyone who's against it is a tree-hugging hippie who really must love caribou more than America.
But when renewable energy companies want to put up
solar panels (a clean, renewable energy source that is the source of life on this planet) in the desert - which, as a former Californian, I can attest to there being plenty of -
then the Bush administration has a deep and abiding concern for this unique environment?
If it wasn't already clear exactly whose side the Bush administration is on (hint: not yours, unless you happen to have over $100 million in your bank account and vote GOP), it should be painfully clear now.
