House Democrats call for nationalization of refineries

From the folks who brought you the House Bank and got sweetheart deals from Countrywide:

House Democrats responded to President's Bush's call for Congress to lift the moratorium on offshore drilling. This was at an on-camera press conference fed back live.
Among other things, the Democrats called for the government to own refineries so it could better control the flow of the oil supply.

That's the answer: nationalize the oil industry!

Reminds me of an old joke:
QUESTION:what would happen if the government owned the Sahara desert?

ANSWER: Nothing for 50 years, then there would be a shortage of sand.
