John Thune: “I think it is unfortunate that we are trying to come back and review this in light of the impacts that it would have on…”

I like the message. But it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars.

There’s voter fatigue with high gas prices, and high diesel prices in my part of the world.

The only conclusion one can draw is that the Democrats have concluded that it is good politics for them not to allow the Republicans to ‘get a victory’ or the president to ‘get a victory’ in the middle of a political season.

That's why again I hope that the administration is laser-focused on trying to get the strait open, get the shipping lanes opened up, and help out with that global energy supply.
