Lie.
Even after a decade-long wait the price will barely drop a few cents per gallon
Lie.
America knows drilling won't work.
Lie.

Capital Research Center "Foundation Watch" has published a two-part series on atheist and one-worlder George Soros and his financial support of MoveOn.org, a leftist web site dedicated to the election of John Kerry as the next president.
The CRC notes that MoveOn.org is actually three different organizations: a nonprofit educational group; a lobbying organization; and a political action committee. Soros and other millionaire liberals have poured as much as $15 million into this group. MoveOn.org also gets money from the Iraq Peace Fund and other left-leaning foundations.

The public overwhelmingly believes (76%!) that policymakers...”
86% of all statistics are made up on the spot!
They crowd the streets a tad the merchants association will have the Fairfax police out there ~ else the demonstrators are in a lot of trouble.
I really hate it when ignorant white outside agitators try to come to this part of town and tell us how to lead our lives ~
Davis already announced his retirement so he’s no one’s target, but will probably be replaced by a Dem which I’m beginning to think his district (mine) deserves.
uh, Tom Davis is RETIRING after this term. . .

They better be protesting Obama because he said we have 3% of the world's oil.
The moonbats are showing America how retarded they really are. 75% of Americans want drilling and it's not because politicians tell us we want drilling, it's because most Americans have common sense.
StopMoving.org begins its anti-energy push.
‘And drilling could take over a decade or more to produce any oil.’
And what do they have to offer that will give immediate and permanent reduction of prices?
