Why Does The LSM Report More About Concern For Animals Than Humans?

As most of you know, I grew up and live down in New Orleans... or N'Awlins as we pronounce it down here. Well, I've been watching the LSM (Lame Stream Media, aka left wing liberal media like ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, HLN, etc.) coverage of the BP oil rig accident and subsequent massive crude oil spill and looming ecological issues... possibly even a disaster... BUT WHY DOES THE LSM REPORT ON EVERY FISH, SEAGULL, TURTLE AND PELICAN and spend very little time reporting about the human effect?

Yeah... I know most of you are saying, but Lenny, they are reporting about the fisherman and oyster growers and shrimpers and tourist attractions that will be adversely affected by this accident... BUT THAT ISN'T WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!!

I'm talking about all of the humans that will die of heat stroke or freeze to death due to their inability to pay their electric bills or buy heating oil. Literally, every year, hundreds of people die due to the high cost of energy and Congress and most of the Presidents have sat idly by while our country quit harvesting our own energy supplies, instead importing so much of it. We haven't built any nuclear power plants in decades. We haven't built any oil refineries nor have we done the amount of onshore and offshore exploration and drilling to keep up with our country's demands. Instead, we've sent trillions of dollars to countries that hate us in order to buy their energy.

Think about all of the jobs we would have today in the energy industry if our so-called leaders (aka spineless politicians) hadn't wimped out to the left wing bleeding heart tree-hugger's over the past few decades???

And what is our socialist President and bleeding heart liberal progressive Congress doing about our energy needs today? Thinking of new ways to tax energy in order to raise money for them to waste on their stupid-assed social programs instead of freeing up our energy industry to start drilling, mining, building nuclear power plants, etc... every thing that we know how to do in order to find and produce a LOT more energy today, which will result in much lower prices for us consumers...

... SO LESS PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE IN THE COMING SUMMERS AND WINTERS DUE TO THE HIGH ENERGY PRICES BROUGHT ON BY OUR SO-CALLED LEADERS IN WASHINGTON, D.C., WHICH WOULD SAVE HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF HUMAN LIVES IN THE COMING DECADES!!!

It's time to drill baby, drill! Refine baby, refine! Mine baby, mine and build baby, build (nuclear power plants) AND SAVE THOUSANDS OF AMERICAN'S LIVES OVER THE COMING YEARS AND DECADES.

Now, that is what the LSM should be reporting instead of worrying about another turtle, fish or bird that is being affected by this accident.

That's the facts and my opinion... what's yours??? (Leave a comment and let me know)
