Wikipedia defines that the Law of Unintended Consequences “states that any purposeful action will produce some unintended consequences.”, or, in another fashion, as “outcomes that are not (or not limited to) what the actor intended in a particular situation.”
Now, with that in mind, let’s say, just for fun, that the run up in gas prices is actually the result of a secret cover-up by Bush to “allow his old cronies to bleed us to death one more time before his time is up”. You know, that old hack by the left that, while Bush is a raging idiot and the biggest moron to ever hold the office, he none the less is smart enough, with his secret cabal of evil dooers, to manipulate the global oil market to enable his capitalist pig friends to cash in big time before he is out of office.
I know I have a small mind, but does that make him the dumbest genius or the smartest moron out there?
Anyway…
So, Bush has manipulated the global energy markets to cash in all the favors that he owes, right? But, what if, due to the Law of Unintended Consequences, as a result of this run up in energy prices, it essentially forces the American society to begin implementing a coherent energy policy, Americans consume less oil, the “auto industry finally appears willing and eager to respond by speeding production of electric vehicles and high-mileage, gasoline-electric hybrids, while substantially improving the mileage of conventional oil-powered cars.” and we really begin to address and solve global warming?
What if “It's entirely possible that a decade from now, we'll realize that this was a pivotal moment in history” and it’s all due in large part to George Bush and his evil cabal? What are the Democrats going to do then?
Or will they just make sure that Obama The Savior gets all the credit?
