It’s time to get off foreign oil, and begin drilling our own resources… Now!

• That’s why we’re rolling out, “Operation Drill Bit”…
• Here’s what we need to do…
• Go to Lowe’s or Home Depot or whatever mom & pop hardware store you like, and buy a drill bit to send to your congressman or woman…
• In fact, buy at least 3… • One for your Representative in the House
• And one for each of your two United States Senators.
• Tell them you are sick and tired of gas prices, and of watching this great country borrow money from the Chinese to buy oil from the Saudi’s
• Click here to find the address for your senators and congressman.
• Click around on their web pages until you find their Washington, D.C. office… Don’t send anything to a local or district office.
• Let’s flood Washington with drill bits to let them know it’s time to drill ANWR, the Gulf of Mexico and other domestic resources.
• We’re mad as hell, and we’re not going to take it anymore!!!

I’m a little conflicted here. One one hand I hate the idea of buying cheap Chinese drill bits. On the other hand, I don’t care much for the idea of paying good money for high-quality US made drill bits, and then sending them to someone who probably doesn’t know which end goes in the chuck.

If the bits were sent to democrats (who are the greater obstructors of drilling), then we could ignore the quote from the Rodham Rodent about borrowing from China to pay the Saudis. The effort has a sound of reason but is a waste of money and drill bits ... you would be hard pressed to find a legislator who could even use a drill bit ‘cause it’s too much like work.

You can probably reach the list through Newt.com ... I think that’s his website.

I just got a e-letter from Ed Malarky about his concern over the economic hardship high gas prices present. Nothing about producing one drop of oil is mentioned.

I don’t want the government to drill. I want the government to allow OIL COMPANIES to drill. Keep the government out of the oil business.

Dawn, thanks for posting this!! I often listen to the Schnitt Show but missed this...great idea!

It is WAY PAST TIME for ‘the people’ to take a stand and let the Congress know we want them to do what’s best for America ...not themselves OR foreign countries. I will definitely send some ‘bits’ and share this with friends.

While we are at it. Tell them to attach the bit to a drill and use it on their friggan brainless heads. I figure the vacume it should create will such all the S$#T out of Washington DC.

You think I'd actually send something of value to these thieves when they stong-arm rob us in virtually everything they do?

How about they just do they're so-called jobs and get off our backs?

Congressinal @$!*&%+@!
