President Joe Biden’s executive order shutting down construction of the Keystone XL pipeline has brought howls of protest from a number of Republican officials who apparently can’t envision an energy future without fossil fuels.
Republicans in Congress had two opportunities last week to demonstrate if they are the Party of Bats**t Crazy and how many of its members need to be fitted for straightjackets.

Roland “Ron” R. Murphy, 82, died on Jan. 30, 2021, at the Scott County Hospital, Scott City.
