BINGO.....BUMP

Texas and Louisiana have drilling of their coasts, why shouldn't we? Texas and Louisiana have tourism and businesses, what's the difference? I know--it's the old hypocritical "Not In My Backyard", defense. Florida needs to step up for the good of the country and do it's part. It's the patriotic thing to do. Selfish Floridians who don't want to help the country shouldn't bitch when gas goes through the roof or when we can't get gas for days after the next hurricane.

Thanks - good reply. I see what you're saying.

Wonder if she told them she is pro amnesty. I'll never vote for a candidate who puts Vicente's citizens interests above Americans

(1) She's not pro-amnesty, although her record on immigration overall is mixed

(2) It's still a helluva lot better than Nelson's record

(3) BUT SHE CAN'T WIN! So all of this is moot anyway < /Sarcasm >

Castro-Cuba/Chavez might drill 45 miles off the coast of Florida but the United States can't drill off of Florida. That is good sound policy alright./s

I hope this question gets asked, but I doubt it due to the fact both Nelson and Harris want America on bended knee in front of OPEC.

Here's a link to the bill she cosponsored to create an amnesty for illegal agricultural workers in 2003-2004

Yes, but has the bill become law?

She also voted for or co-sponsored other provisions against illegal immigration as well.

Like I said, her record on immigration is very mediocre, which can be changed through pressure. Nelson doesn't give a feces about phone calls from conservatives and will vote 100% amnesty.

and drilling in the Gulf. Do you know her stance on drilling in the Gulf?




Do you approve of today's gas prices???
