‘”We’ve got an abundance of supply,” Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker said this week in Oklahoma at a gathering of putative Republican candidates for next year’s presidential election. Lifting the ban, he said, would allow exports to “our allies in Europe, where, instead of being dependent on (President) Vladimir Putin and the Russians, they could be dependent on Americans.”‘

Am I missing something or did this fool just say we should navigate to have our allies dependent on us?  That is a direct diplomatic slap in the face.  It’s also characteristic of recent Republican gracefulness with wording.

Oh, well, I have popcorn.
