WHO are no doubt DEMOCRATS(communists/socialists)..
I only wish for America to lose a war, how dare you question my patriotism!
I only wish for high oil and gas prices to line up every America’s enemy pockets, how dare you question my patriotism!
I only wish a total government control over American people’s lives, how dare you question my patriotism!
I only wish to allow illegals’ votes to be counted, how dare you... the list just goes on.
We need to spread the word, to make sure every American understands that NONE of the Problems America faces are the responsibility of Republicans. Every problem of America today has been caused by Democrats. Carter, Clinton, Pelosi, Obama, those are the leaders of the Communistic Democrat Party that is ruining America. Republicans are Not Responsible.
Windfall profit is like many others, a term or word that has been bastardized by the liberal dims.
The term originates from the description of ripe fruit falling from the tree due to wind...therefore it doesn't have to be "picked".
Oil companies risk/invest enormous sums of money to find oil with the intent of selling it for more than it cost them to acquire it.
Oil company profits are not "windfalls."
When an uncle you don't know dies and leaves you a fortune, that's a windfall.
When you bend over to tie your shoe and find that you are standing on a $100 bill, that's a windfall.
If Tiger Wood gets a $10 million dollar endorsement because he has won 65 PGA tournaments, that's not a windfall.
Speaking of fruit, when Apple sells 6,000,000 iPhones for $2.4 Billion, that is NOT a windfall.
Now if you get the nomination for the highest office in the land from a major political party for chanting "change","hope" and "yes we can" a few thousand times...THAT's a windfall.
If the GOP doesn’t beat the Dems over the head with this one they are even more stupid than I imagined. This gives them a chance to stand up for Conservative values. Let’s see if they can cowboy up. I pray they can.
Great post.
Rock on!
Who to Blame?
Pick a problem, and you’ll find a liberal policy has either caused it or made it worse.
There is no exception.
We need to find a prosecutor or lawyer to file a RICO suit against the National Audubon Society, Natural Resources Defense Council, and Earthjustice for the damage they have caused the country as well as a class action suit for reparations to all of us who have lost money because of the high cost of energy that these organizations have promoted.
Is there a lawyer in the house?
We are an oil poor country, trying to act like a major oil producer - the US has 2-3% of the worlds oil, but we consume 30% of the world oil output.
Even if we up domestic output by tapping Alaska and the Gulf Coast we can only add enough production to reduce our imports by a few percent, meanwhile we will be importing increasing amounts of the oil we use:
for which we will be paying international market prices - for *both* foreign and domestic oil - prices set in a world which is going to be in a permanent and likely increasing state of under-supply.
So it's worse than pointless to pretend otherwise - every day we spend believing that we can drill our way out of this mess is a day later we start on implementing *real* solutions.
Obamarhoid has said "we must end dependence on foreign oil." Politicians have been saying the exact same thing when they campaign since before Jimmuh Cawtuh's time. The "end dependence on foreign oil" mantra has been chanted since the early '70s at the very least. Where are we now?
