"Congressional Democrats ripped presumptive Republican presidential nominee Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) Wednesday for “flip-flopping," after McCain reversed course and called for the lifting of a ban on offshore oil drilling, which he once opposed."

Bush has apparently matured, as well.
And from the Department of Wouldn't be able to consumate a transaction in a House of Ill Repute with large bills extending from one's pockets, we bring you the House Democrats who've officially crossed the threshold of self-parody. If suing OPEC or raising taxes on Big Oil didn't grab ya, how about nationalizing the country's oil refineries to increase the supply and lower prices?
And please don't miss our earnest rethinking and heartfelt apology regarding John Murtha and company, here.

P.J. O'Rourke once opined that you couldn't get a decent cigar in Havana, that Vodka was rationed in Moscow and you couldn't get decent take out in Peking (Beijing) and this is all you needed to know about communism. If we take the communist approach and nationalize the oil refineries, we can expect the same result for gasoline.
Of course belicosity about nationalizing an industry only serves to underscore the utter fatuousness of our elected representatives in Washington. We all know nationalization is not going to happen, so why release so much hot air over it?
Also, McCain should call out Obama on this one. If Obama is for nationalization he shows his own lack of seriousness, if not he alienates his nutroots base.
