Is it just me, or does this administration need some help on their communication skills? For example, we are told now by our Energy Secretary that we are like a bunch of unruly teenagers when it comes to energy.
“The American public…just like your teenage kids, aren’t acting in a way that they should act,” Dr. Chu said. “The American public has to really understand in their core how important this issue is.”
A spokesman later said: “Secretary Chu was not comparing the public to teenagers. He was saying that we need to educate teenagers about ways to save energy.”

Seems to me that's exactly what he was doing. Freudian slip?
