A rather bizarre event unfolded Friday. Basically, the Republicans tried to force a vote on drilling for more oil. The Democrats stifled it. Then, the Democrats decided that accomplishing nothing to help the United States deal with soaring gas prices was better than debating, or even worse yet, voting to allow more drilling. It didn’t [...]
