To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

I hope everyone is getting ready for higher gas prices.

And since the leftists blamed the higher gas prices last summer on Bush and his "oil buddies", I suggest we return the favor when prices go up again.

Many people are surprised to learn that the Kennedys have been major players in the oil business and continue to receive sizable checks for crude being pumped from their numerous properties.

The Kennedy's have shrouded their oil ownership from the public; the Kennedy's own two oil companies that have drilled for oil in 4 American states.

Financial disclosure records show to each extended Kennedy family members receives between $50-100,000 a year from properties that were purchased for their mineral rights (oil). In total, family revenue from crude oil and natural gas is more than $1 million a year.

Ted led a battle in the Senate (and won) to pass legislation which cut back on "excessive profits" for oil companies. But he made a nice little loophole for his own oil companies.

He made sure the legislation distinguished between "small struggling oil producers" (his companies) and large oil companies.

Let's not forget.
