Democrat Calls For Civil War if Offshore Oil Drilling Ban is Not Restored
CNSNEWS/Yidwithlid ^ | 3/23/09 | Yidwithlid

I don't think that anyone wants to destroy the US Coastline at ANY Cost. Even those who want use to exploit our energy resources. The fact is Offshore drilling technology has gotten much easier on the environment.

Scientists know two things, first all the estimates of reserves on the US continental shelf are probably UNDERSTATED, after all its been thirty years since they have been allowed to take a really good look with the most modern technology. The other thing that scientists know (and that you rarely hear about from the MSM is that when there are leakages that cause environmental damage it rarely comes from the Oil Rigs, it comes from the transporting of OIL.

Its time for America to wake up and smell the gas fumes. TODAY the US is sitting on an estimated 115 billion barrels of oil and 633 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, if tapped it would be enough to drive down the price of oil, lower the cost of producing food cutting down, and free the United States from the grip of the Oil Producing countries, many of which use their petrodollars to fund terrorism. Sounds Cool right? Lets Go DO IT !!! Well we can't. Since he took office, the President's Secretary of the Interior has been canceling land leases for oil drilling. Now Congressman Jay Inslee, Moonbat from Washington, is calling for a restoration of the Offshore Drilling ban, even if it takes seceding from the union to get it done:

Bring it on.

Sounds like a fun war. Give this bozo and his ilk all the solar powered weaponry and vehicles they want and give us diesel powered tanks and 50 caliber machine guns. Would be quick and sweet.

CNSNews.com) - The ban on offshore oil drilling that expired last September will be restored by “any means necessary,” Rep. Jay Inslee (D-Wash.), who serves on both the House Committee on Natural Resources and the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, told CNSNews.com on Friday.


“Any means necessary?” That’s 2 in past week. See posting : Obama volunteers: “We’re not looking for a fight. That will come later, when we have an army.” http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2212285/posts

Seem Libs are feeling pretty feisty and pretty bold!

"Seem Libs are feeling pretty feisty and pretty bold!"

Too funny! Just this morning I was at a Lib meeting location (local Starbucks in southern California), and this one loud mouth was going off about how all republicans and conservatives should be rounded up and given "classes" on how to be human beings. I listened from the side lines and when one of the others asked him what to do if the "classes" didn't work, he replied "well then we should just put out em out of their miserable existences." I couldn't hold my tongue, I walked up to his table and said "hey big man, I'll guarantee your classes won't work on me, how about putting me out of my miserable existence...if you think you can?" He stuttered and mumbled and finally said ummm...well...I didn't mean it literally...I don't condone violence...ummmm....you shouldn't listen in to other peoples private conversations...ummmm...ummmm...I don't want any trouble."

I grinned and walked away...nothing more I could do to him than he had already done to himself...I exposed him for the loud mouth C.S. he really is. He and his audience just sat quietly and subdued.

even if it takes seceding from the union to get it done:

Cool, something I finally agree with leftists only, now lets both leave amicably and I can live in Free Constitutional Loving America, and you (Congressman) can live in Socialist-Statist-Big Gov “Green” America. We can both live free how we want and I won’t be imposing my values upon you, and you won’t be imposing yours upon me!

Don't forget, they have slogans, chants and bumper stickers too.
