Calling the current bill dead, Kirk added, "What I really want to see is a new round of nuclear plants for the country, exploration for oil offshore, and the trans--Canada pipeline that would bring lower cost natural gas for the Midwest.
Kirk didn't quite repent, but he came close.
But it looks like he got the message.
H/T to Backyard Conservative.

Thanks for this. I know my father-in-law in Vernon Hills was burning up the phone lines to express his disgust.
Kirk, and my daffy Congress critter Dan Lipinski, deserve to find new employement outside of government.
BTW -nice bit on San Fran Rubes!
