Barbara Boxer organizing boycott of American oil companies
Senator Barbara Boxer's PAC for change ^

Posted on 06/27/2005 8:15:59 PM PDT by JeffersonRepublic.com

“But I want you to know that I won't give up in our fight to stop the drilling. And neither should you. I'm going to use every legislative tool at my disposal to reverse this vote and prevent this terrible policy from going into effect. But we can do more -- today.”

“I'm planning to organize a consumer boycott of any oil company that decides to drill in this pristine Alaskan wilderness area. If, through our pocketbooks, we can convince these companies to do the right thing, we can still save the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge from the destruction that would be wrought by the oil drilling rigs.”

Barbara Boxer

I didn't vote for her. Her opponent for some reason didn't get very much publicity. I believe his name was Bill Jones??

What do they add to the water in California?

That would be fine. All the libs can run their cars on pure ethanol thus reducing the demand for gasoline. We can then buy cheaper gasoline and invest the savings in ADM stock.

Learn the truth about ANWR:

http://www.anwr.org/

It gives you all the good reasons TO DRILL and lots of pictures of happy caribou around the gas pipeline.

Don't let the Dems cripple our economy by forcing our continued dependence on foreign oil.

I foolishly clicked on that link. It's hard to believe how ignorant and self-righteous libs are.

So she wants to boycott American oil in favor of -- what? -- Arab oil?

Sigh.

I'm starting to think Democrats hate America. I used to believe they were just misguilded, but they seem to do nothing to help only hurt: no drilling or boycott, no new energy sources (nuclear), Americans are Nazi's (durbin). It's just never ends.

Why vote for them? Democrats seem ripe to be taken out by a third party. Democrats will be no different then the Wigs - History will have to tell their story.

Have you heard that PSA for Red Cross Blood donations where the tag is "Saving the world is hard, saving something something is easy, give blood?"

Well, whenever I hear the woman prattling on and on about shutting down the polluting company and putting everyone out of work and the rivers still being polluted and the children having no health insurance....etc. I just imagine the Boxers, Clintons and Feinsteins of the world. Pretty much sums up their short sighted, shoot yourself in the foot philosophy.

Maybe Barbara the Boxer is punch drunk.

There doesn't seem to be enough brains in the entire Senate to create one fully functional pinhead .

What is wrong with the people of California????

The same thing that is plaguing the people of Massachucetts who keep sending Ted Kennedy and John "F'in" Kerry back to the Senate: Cranio-Rectal inversion.

I live in California and I've NEVER voted for that woman or Diane Feinstein, either. Not all Californians are liberal idiots.

Someone come up with a good caption to this photo... Try living in Moron County with these idiots. I moved here 16 years ago from CT, it took me about 2 weeks to figure out the average resident is not firing on all cylinders...

Maybe Chevron should move its headquarters out of California.

Maybe all the majors and all the facilities. Then sit back and watch the exodus from the commie state by horse and wagon.
