120 years of Islamic progress vs. the West

Thought this spoof was pretty funny:

Just kidding. The oil-exporting nations have fabulous cities--all paid for by western nations who needed to buy oil.  For many years the U.S. alone paid mid-east nations tens of billions of dollars a year to import oil.  Now that's down to near zero, since American know-how has boosted our domestic production by almost 4 million barrels per day.

Thanks, Barack!

Oh, wait:  Barack didn't have shit to do with that huge paradigm-changing accomplishment.  Instead that was a bunch of entrepreneurs and gutsy companies willing to innovate and experiment.  Barack and the Dems (spit) just happened to be in power when that windfall showered us with riches.
