The Heretik On the Latest Release From the President's iPOD Commission

Come and listen to a story about a man named Jed
A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed,
Then one day he was shootin at some food,
And up through the ground came a bubblin crude.
 
Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.

White House Press Secretary Scott McClelland has yet to respond to the following questions:

1. Is Sixties sit com character Jed Clampett from the Beverly Hillbillies making energy decisions at the White House?
   
2. Would a sit com character  make better energy decisions at the White House? . . . . .
3. . . . . .  then why do White House Energy policies seem like such a joke?
   

What do you think?

Nice job on the seal. Looks very official. I read somewhere that Bush actually has ten iPods--that's a lot of gigs to fill! That means we have more patriotic work to do.

The poetic strains of Beverly Hillbillies almost brought me to tears. :)

Department of Energy is working to give sight to the blind. No joke.

They are working with a bacteria they claim can clean up nuclear (as in war) waste. No joke.

There are a couple of other strange things the Department of energy is into now.
