Bush pays no attention to the low poll numbers but it means he has no clout with these Republicans.

Why don't they cut the pork spending instead? They can easily find the money for this project then.

I guess they're determined to lose in 2006. BEing spineless and populist is what makes arepublican lose all the time.

Add a RIDER to make all heating fuel users to convert to solar,wood or electricity. We can no longer afford to have the expense to make home heating oil with no supply and no profit to the oil companys.. and My State certainly can't afford to substitize home heating costs for New England Luddites.

That's not what this is. It is to allow drilling.
