And yet no Republicans will have the balls to oppose them.

This is NOT true. The only people who do not have the balls to oppose the Marxist scum are the self-professed "real" conservatives out there busy chasing "RINO" chimeras. In the meantime, everything they claim to hold dear is under dire threat from the most radical Marxist Congress and Dem presidential candidate we've ever had.

Chimera: an imaginary monster compounded of incongruous parts; an illusion or fabrication of the mind

I read the remarks of the Democratic congresscritters. These guys are professional liars. I don’t take anything they say seriously. Enough is enough.

It’s seriously almost time for a new round of secession conventions.

Why should we leave? Make the Liberals get out!

They must be eyeballing Canada and their Nationalist system of Gov. controlled Energy and Health Care.

That’s why there are only 230 drill rigs in Canada to our 1900.

"They must have seen the Petrobras article yesterday."

My dad worked for Petrobras as an oil-exploration (well-sitting) geologist back in the '50s, and we lived in Ponta Grossa and later Sao Paulo back then. He gave it up when he concluded that the state-owned company was all about providing government jobs: finding oil was secondary.

All the Brazilians he was supposed to be training were political appointees, and even the most incompetent couldn't be fired or re-assigned.

Sure enough, it's taken them another 50 years to find that offshore field, and nary a drop anywhere on dry land except up in the northern part of the country.
Ironic that this happened when they've got an avowedly Marxist president, though.

I'm so furious I'm about to spit. The marxist are going to run our country into the ground. It'll look just like a banana republic but without the cheap gas.

Why destroy a great country just to rule it? Beats me!

Look at all the communists countries and former communist countries. In order to rule over a population you must beat down and control that population first.

When we lose our second amendment - there will be a war. Unarmed, we suffer at their whim. The elites will live in luxury while the rest of the country withers and suffers. Their gated communities will not help them once American patriots smell the powder.

They’re just showing the country who the REALLY are finally. They are communists through and through. They;re taking off the masks now.

The part that bothers me is that they’re not afraid to admit it anymore.

They are going to get clobbered - one way or the other - if they try this crap.

Wow! They’re just asking for a new revolution aren’t they? Oh well, Jefferson said “the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrannts. It is it’s natural manure.”

I’ve always maintained that all Socialism is just a transition phase for all out Communism. And McCarthy was right all along.

——House Democrats responded to President’s Bush’s call for Congress to lift the moratorium on offshore drilling. This was at an on-camera press conference fed back live.

Among other things, the Democrats called for the government to own refineries so it could better control the flow of the oil supply.——

You don’t control the supply of oil by controlling refineries you liars.

So how does Congress set the price of oil for the entire World Market?

It can't. The Democrats apparently think it's 1940 and we still export oil. I doubt 10% of the population in general understands how dependent on imported oil and gasoline we've become. I doubt 5% of Democrat politicians do.

"One of the most visible symbols of the freedom that Americans enjoy is the ability to jump in the car and drive wherever the hell they feel like. Whenever they feel like.

That is what they want to control."

Nail-on-head time!
