(ari fleischer doesn't count)

hey george
is there a windy place
from which
you drained all the oil

put a few windmills there

hey george
is there a sunny place
from which
you drained all the oil

put a few solar panels there

hey george
are you worried
that the depleted wasteland
is neither windy
nor sunny
and that the alternative
energy sources
won't feed your lust
for other
petroleum products

put a plastic recycling plant there

hey george
who ever said
you couldn't
retroactively build
refineries
