new drilling effect on price of gasoline
fox&frinends ^ | 7/14/2008 | fox&friends

Posted on 07/15/2008 5:29:28 AM PDT by fatrat

i just watched the 2 new girly men on F&F agree that new drilling for oil would have no effect on the price of gasoline at the pump. Somebody needs to tell these two metrosexuals to keep their uninformed opinions to themselves.

First, of the fill-in duo, and I don’t know their names, the guy on the right side of the screen seems pretty conservative to me. Second, Jonathan Hoenig is the guy from the business channel. He is one of the most, if not the most, conservative on the business panels. Good guy.

Just saw this on lonestartimes.com. Sometimes simple graphics are the most powerful.

That would be the weekend hosts filling in for Steve & Brian...they are sooooooooo dull and uninformed. I heard Dave say that it would take five years.

How about the Fox Biz guy on the "service" segment...he said that young people join the military today for purely selfish reasons being that they only want to attack and kill militant Islamists. I hit rewind three times to make sure I heard that correctly.

That would be Jonathon the Biz News guy. What a jerk. I shut off the TV and went out to inspect my roses as a result of that comment. Later my husband (who had missed Jonathon's comment) shut off the TV again because of the uninformed twerps with Gretchen.

I keep thinking that OPEC would not like us to start drilling again. After all they do have a lock on the oil market. The last time that we considered drilling, back in the seventies, the threat of our drilling our own oil forced OPEC to lower the price of their oil. But when the price of gasoline became reasonable again America forgot about drilling and shelved the program. Unfortunately we just don't learn anything.

I liked something I saw here. It works.

This is what I sent to each of Colorado’s Senators, individually.

Senator Allard, Senator Salazar;

Six words for each of my Senators...

Drill, or get off the hill!

Thank you

Rick Donaldson

Since I'm getting different feedback about this morning...from what I have been able to stand of the weekend crew, I can't tell what Dave and Clayton's political views are because they don't seem to be that informed or too deep thinkers. They try to be funny (which they are not) and just read the teleprompter repeating talking points.

As for the "good guy" Jonathan, I thought that comment was an insult to our military. He said they only join to attack and kill and for purely selfish reasons. I found that outrageous.

While I'm at it, applause to FReeper "Trueblackman" for exposing Barry this morning and calling him a Marxist. Great job! And also to Gretchen who smacked down Dr. Marc Lamont Hill after he said that Barry was always in the center. She replied--he has the most liberal voting record in the Senate.

Called the office and the staffer was really snotty when I told him to tell the Speaker to stop obstructing energy exploration and recovery. He switched me over to a voicemail line where you can leave comments.

Good idea - I just hit my senators with the same.

Someone needs to wake up. Why on earth would we not harvest a resource as vigorously as possible when the price of that resource is at an all time high?

Hey - I just thought of a way to bail out the banks. Give THEM the oil leases. Haha. I bet they could sublet those leases for a mint. Two birds with one stone. ;-)
