Put the blame where it belongs. There’s plenty of oil in Alaska and other places, but the democrats don’t want us to drill because it’s “too messy for the environment”. The republicans should be making a BIG issue of this and put the blame where it belongs—the democrats who are beholden to the left wing nut jobs.

I forget, was McCain against ANWR drilling? If so there is another issue he can’t use.

As long as the oil companies do have plenty of money, maybe they should run some TV ads explaining they are largely not responsible for the high prices. The ads during Rush’s show explaining that plenty of average stock holders make money when oil companies profit are pretty good. Not enough people know the truth though.

As far as high prices at the pump go, this will no longer be an outrage after next Jan 20 if the president has the right name. The media will see to that.

It was when the Republicans were in power that the RINOs blocked drilling in ANWAR and off the coast of Florida.

The Democrats were just being Democrats. The Bush era will be marked as one of missed opportunities (oil, spending, immigration, etc.) that will probably never return.

Unless, as expected, Obama does a Carter and America gets its head on right again. But then we at least had a Reagan waiting in the wings. All we have now are RINOs.

You’re exactly right but for some reason they don’t want to stand up for their country and country men. I think they are there to comfortably bask in their salaries and benefits while they reap the harvests of their power. We only count when they need our vote.
