Timing is everything

Obama's kowtowing to the energy establishment by opening big new areas to offshore drilling must have seemed a big win leading into the mid-terms. The money was on the way, the gods placated, and a rosy future loomed.

Alas, an evil spirit has reared its angry head, killing eleven unfortunates, and spewing a black tide of oil just at the wrong moment. Katrina II is now in full swing for Louisiana, angry clouds swag on the deep, driving a shit load of death onto the unfortunate creatures dependent upon Mother Nature.

Waiting for the new new energy policy will be a painful process. But perhaps before the midterms it might come to fruition. Nuclear!!

But bad timing can be a curse that repeats itself.
