Bush Shitlist Grows By One

Republican Representative Dan Lungren (of California) recently defended his position on controversial exploratory oil-drilling in the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge by giving up the fact that the Iraq war was over oil. The GOP has done everything in their power to avoid stating the obvious fact, but now, in a Freudian slip, it has been revealed.

“I feel quite strongly that as long as we have our military in the Middle East fighting so that we can continue to purchase oil from that region, we have an obligation to find alternatives to foreign oil. It is difficult to justify the death of even one soldier when we are not doing everything in our power to explore options for oil within our country.”

Congratulations Congressmen Lungren, welcome to the Bush Administration’s shitlist. You may choose to sit by either Richard Clarke or Paul O’Neill. Good luck running for re-election.
