Pelosi: Drilling in protected areas ‘a hoax’ By Jared Allen Posted: 07/10/08 01:28 PM [ET] House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday shut the door on expanding oil and gas drilling beyond areas that have already been approved for energy exploration, drawing a clear distinction from her counterparts in charge of the Senate.

“This call for drilling in areas that are protected is a hoax, it’s an absolute hoax on the part of the Republicans and this administration” Pelosi said at her weekly press conference. “It’s a decoy to punt your attention away from the fact that their policies have produced $4-a-gallon gasoline.”

Nope, nothing practical from these enemies of the American people...we're just supposed to hop onto bicycles to get to work, and power our homes with windmills.

And probably be taxed to do it, no doubt. Carbon footprints, you know!

I think Ms Pelosi needs to stop buying that medicinal pot that is being sold in the pot houses in Berkeley and San Francisco.

Yesterday the local Moveon.org Moonbats took the streets in my little town here and little did I know that I would be famous for my lone protest ,but there it was it my morning paper ,the lone protester was me .
Sorry I could not be more humble but I am actually proud of myself for letting these Obama Brown shirts have it .

"...meanwhile, Democrats in Congress have consistently kept the US from developing its own energy sources in pursuit of the destruction of the Constitution and national sovereignty, just as I'm trying to do today." Thanks neverdem.
