Republicans Say We Need to Drill Baby, Drill

Republicans Say We Need to Drill Baby, Drill While Fires Burning Out of Control

While the world
Confronts climate change.
Massive wildfires everywhere
Monster storms

Floods
Mega droughts
Record temperatures everywhere

Scientists screaming
The world is facing.
An essential crisis
As the world continues
To burn up

Here in Oregon
An end-of-the-world feeling
As fires spread everywhere
Turning the sky orange
With smoke in the air

The republicans in the US
And their ilk elsewhere
Continue to ignore the problem.

Calling it a liberal hoax
And demanding that
We drill for oil.
and mine more coal

and making it more difficult
to install wind and solar
because they are so concerned
about dead birds, bats, and whales?

Instead, they want to talk endlessly.
About the Biden Crime Family
Hunter Biden
George Soros
Massive corruption by Democrats

Ignoring the fascists coming to power
In their party
And promoting a war
Against wokeism
Purging the world
Of the alleged communist movement

And of course, constantly talking.
About culture war issues
Like are Pop-Tarts secretly gay?
