Macaca rises again: 'Americans are not addicted to oil. Americans are addicted to freedom'

Why do the disgraced rabid dogs of the GOP continue to cock their legs and piss on the political discourse when they have zero credibility? George "Macaca" Allen has no shame, as he pimps the "Drill, baby, drill" meme into the ground with an assertion that the call for drilling is an expression of Americans' desire to be free - and those with a different point of view are "elitist."

ALLEN: I love that statement, America is addicted to oil. What an elitist point of view. Americans are not addicted to oil. Americans are addicted to freedom — the freedom and liberty to move where and when we want.

Actually, isn't it the opposite? This incessant call to dedicate money and time to finding more fossil fuels ahead of a concerted effort to develop alternative sources of energy sounds more like Allen and McCain/Palin want us shackled to Big Oil as if this is a sane energy strategy.

Besides, the glorious Dear Leader has said that “America is addicted to oil. I guess Macaca forgot about that bit of business.
