...the U.S. coastline is off-limits to energy production - including huge reserves off Florida's coast, which China is exploiting,,,

Yeah, not drilling is helping the environment, cuz China knows how to do it better, right? Oh, and they will sell us the oil just as cheap as we could produce it, right?

Effing idiots.

Liberal DemoRAT Energy Plan:

1. You can’t drill for oil anywhere.
2. You can’t build a refinery anywhere.
3. You can’t build a nuclear power plant anywhere.
4. You can’t burn coal for electricity.
5. You can’t allow the oil companies to reinvest their profits into exploration.
6. But you can drive up the price of food by subsidizing an ethanol industry that takes land out of food production while using more energy than it creates.
7.You must continue to tax every gallon of gas that we put in our tanks.
8.You must threaten all energy users with additional ‘carbon taxes’.
9. And just in case some entrepreneur out there somewhere may have an idea for an alternative energy concept that just might work, you must raise the capital gains tax so that investors have less capital and less incentive to invest in his/her project. count your blessings.

With the coming change in administration and Liberals in Congress, it will be guaranteed that the price of gasoline hits $10 per gallon as our economy dumps. All this and more thanks to anti-American, anti-military Liberal DemoRATS whose platform is “enjoy living in America the new third-world created by Liberal socialists.”

Term limits.

You implement term limits and all the politicians in the pocketbooks of the environmentalists go away.

We should have a national referendum on it, but somehow it never makes it to the ballot box.

Have a litmus test. 1) Are you for term limits and 2) Will you promote domestic exploration. Two yesses and you have my vote.

It’s ironic that the Rats have single handedly done more to raise the price of oil by constricting supply, and yet complain about the oil industry and that the Pubs are the ones in the back pocket of the oil industry. Which party has benefited the oil industry the most?
