yeah, buddy, why don't you ask Gary Hart about "no excuses"?

U.S. Representative Mac Thorncrown writes in the Amarillo Globe-Republican that some people are "quietly happy" with high gas prices.

What?! Is he calling out his compadres George and Dick who, one imagines, are loudly happy with high gas prices at clandestine Republican gatherings.

Oh.

No, he's attack environmentalists: "What's worse there are some who appear to be quietly happy with this situation believing that rising prices in America will discourage fossil fuel consumption and reduce global warming."

I should have known.

And, you know, that's not really an Amarillo Globe-Republican "guest column". It's reprinted verbatim from Old Mac's e-newsletter.
