President Bush to address the nation on Hurricane Katrina...has flown by the damage on Air Force One on way back to D.C.
Thank you for the sanity among the sea of worriers (both here and elsewhere).
Announce a halt to all foreign aid.
Announce this halt to foreign aid is permanent.
Announce a withdraw from the UN.
Start taking care of America, not the rest of the globe.
Well stated. Some that call themselves "conseratives" are much the same... oviously by "some" freepers.
It's the old damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.
Perhaps not today, though your hometown may well be another case. And if we don't cut back on our consumption--which we won't, if prices aren't permitted to rise sufficiently--then America may very well will be in danger of running out.
What do you think the price mechanism is for?
EPA rules toughened under a Clinton Executive Order and the RATs stalling in the Congress.
Yep...they are STILL screaming about a lousy 7 minutes almost 4 years ago. Maroons!
And the regulations got tougher under Clinton which has led us to what we have today.
Maybe now we will get some action and show the DemocRATs to the obstructionist they are.
What does TPTB stand for?
Executive order. '1. We start drilling the Artic next week.
2. 1O new refineries will begin construction in the following red states...
3. One blend of fuel may be used across the USA.
We can dream!
They said five eastern.
My solution is increasing supply by allowing more offshore and ANWr drilling, reducing formulation requirements, building more refinery capacity. We can reduce the consumption side by burning more coal and building nuclear plants while weaning ourselves from nat. gas fired plants.
Even though the President is limited in doing a whole lot because it's SUPPOSE to be the Governor that makes the calls in their State first and then the President
I'm just glad there is someone that can help those people down there
I am beyond ticked off at how the NO Mayor and the Gov. of Louisiana handled this all
I don't give a flying hoot what party they are from ..
THEY FAILED THEIR PEOPLE!!
Exxon Mobil profits rose 32 percent in the second four months of 2005. That amounts to $7.6 billion for a company that is debt-free with $25 billion on hand.
British Petroleum profits are up 38 percent, $6.7 billion.
For Conoco Phillips, the numbers are 56 percent and $3 billion.
I don't think the oil companies or their downstream refiners are suffering.
Is he going to tell the lefty morons who believe he is responsible for the hurricane that they better shut up or they get the next one???
But the environmentalists had no grounds for lawsuits until the environmental justice eo was signed.
Americas freedom and system of law has been harmed by the EO and it should be revoked.
God forbid companies make a profit..
I constantly hear that it's just democrats that attack personally when they know that their defense of position is weak. Thanks to everyone for getting suckered and showing your true immaturity. I thought that one could offer criticism and not be attacked. You are right about one thing. This STUFF can't be discussed without juvenile emotion surfacing.
Thank you! Like your tag, too.
Some people bitch that Bush talks too much about God. Then they bitch because he doesn't ACT like God in these kind of situations. Some people just like to bitch.
