Gusher, maybe for real this time?
Keeping up the tradition: It appears, astonishingly enough, that both the House and the Senate have acted
in concert this time ... no cute games ... to open up more of the Gulf of Mexico to drilling. The Senate approved the omnibus package including the drilling by 79-9. Of the 9 No votes, 8 were 'Republicans', which means the 'Democrats' can no longer be called the anti-drilling party.
Still no action by either Congress or the Vichy Government on opening up Alaska.
