"The United States needs to be less dependent on foreign sources of energy and more dependent upon American resourcefulness. Whether that is in the Everglades, or whether that is in the eastern Gulf region, or whether that's in North Dakota, we need to go where the energy is . . . Of course it needs to be done responsibly. If we can't responsibly access energy in the Everglades then we shouldn't do it."
"No one wants to hurt or contaminate the earth . . . we don't want to harm our water, our ecosystems or the air. That is a minimum bar."
-- Michele "Skidmark" Bachmann, on her latest plan to end America's dependence on foreign oil, by drilling in the environmentally-sensitive (and federally-protected) Florida Everglades.
Um, wow.
I think this might FINALLY be the first nail in the coffin where her ridiculous campaign will eventally lie in repose.
