There’s gas in dem dare parks! And Texas being what it is, we will get it come Well or High Water. God Dabbit!
The Republican lite Houston Chronicle has written an editorial promoting drilling to get gas under our city parks. Not much to worry about really, after all the rigs will be on private property just outside the parks angling over. So it’s okay. A proposal to drill in city parks could provide a cash gusher
Ready for the kicker? This great idea is not only okay with the oil and gas companies, our conservative newspaper, but also okay with the Democratic held Houston City Council and Democratic Mayor.
We are also at the same time in a big fight (guns have not come out yet) with the EPA which is trying to clean up our rotten air, and keep in mind that Houston is the center of the "drill baby drill" movement to lift ban on deep water drilling Even in the face of a shallow 350 foot deep well – no diving – blew 13 workers off it the other day. But not to worry. Down here in Dumbutt we got our guns and Jesus looking out for everyone of us individually. So don’t sweat the small stuff. Just increase you caliber size and pray louder and all will be well.
A sign of things to come. Dust off those old hip boots, hold your breath and get to high ground.
So far the Republicans have done well with their worst recession in history. Libraries are closing, teachers are being fired, schools are closing, college educations going out of reach, religious, ethnic and racial intolerance on the rise with the added benefit of saying to hell with the environment! Nothing Republicans hate more than environmentalists, scientists, and smart people. They know very well, as Fox News has proven to them, that the best way to hold on to power is to keep Americans as stupid as possible. Ignorance is power.
