He was talking about drilling offshore and he knew "they" just don't get it when a FL Dem said they don't want all that NATURAL GAS WASHING UP ON THEIR BEACHES!
Fat Lady hasn't sung yet, so help is still needed.
I couldn't find a welcome thread about, I figured this would be a good a place as any to make my first mark after a bit of lurking over the weekend.
Can finally be proud of an NJ rep (Scott Garrett) doing something good for the country and not dragging it closer to the Abyss of socialist darkness.
It gives away the farm in return for absolutely nothing.
ALL THE DHIMMI-PUBLICANS HAD TO DO WAS SIT BACK AND DO NOTHING. THE DRILLING MORATORIUM WOULD HAVE EXPIRED AND THEN, THE DUMMYRATS WOULD HAVE BEEN FORCED TO INTRODUCE LEGISLATION AND BE SEEN BY ALL AMERICANS FOR THE TRUE OBSTRUCTIONISTS THEY ARE.
WHAT A BUNCH OF MOROONS AND THESE 5 ARE SUPPOSED TO BE "CONSERVATIVES?" SHEESH!!!
“Time to melt the phones of the GANG- and tell them we want the House Bill.”
AMEN!!!!
Here, but at work all day.
Unlike the demorat reps.....
God bless you, eeevil.
Bump. The Reps. need our support now more than ever as they not only have to overcome the not-insignificant additions to the news cycle but also the American public’s short attention span.
Ready to go, let’s hit the phones and write those emails!
I especially targeted the plan to “Converting Cars and Trucks to Non-Oil Fuel Sources to Regain Energy Independence
“
That is little more than the Marxists dream of rendering the ‘little people’ immobile or, at the least, dependent on public transportation - and to he*l with the tens of thousands of red-staters who have no access to public trans.
and ‘tax credits’ to convert are worthless to low income people.
I, for example, am a ‘really’ senior cit. on a ‘very’ limited income. I drive an 11 year old car, borrowed from a son as my own 17 year old Buick needs more repair than I can afford to pass inspection (like rust on the rocker panels...which our state will not allow. Otherwise, the motor is fine, the rest of the body fine, brakes=new lines, ditto gas lines, etc.)...
I would never be able to afford a ‘conversion; nor a new hybrid.
But the Marxists have long held the view that the little people don't need to be out on the road in the first place.
I cannot believe ANY republican would touch this Marxist bill.
CNN Money is reporting that gas prices peaked on July 16th and have been on a downward slide nationally.
On July 14th President Bush lifted the Executive ban on offshore drilling.
Wonder what gas prices might be doing if Nancy Pelosie and the other donkeys got their butts back to DC and voted on the GOP’s Energy bill?
OH, btw, Oil prices on the futures market dropped 8% in the 1st week of the GOP House Revolt. This was an acceleration of the decline triggered by President Bush's lifting of the Executive ban on Off Shore Drilling on July 14th.
So apparently, Yes, we can drill our way out of this mess.
Here is my letter to my Senator, Mr Corker:
Mr Corker,
I am a hard working conservative Tennessean. I love the mostly conservative nature of our state and our Senators and Representatives.
Having said that, I have been so dismayed at seeing the Majorities that Americans gave the Republican Party frittered away. The Party of smaller Government and Fiscal Restraint gave us BIGGER Government and spending through the roof. Granted, the Iraq and Afghanistan Wras are expensive, but spending cuts in areas that need them did not happen.
Now, with energy prices soaring, the conservatives of theis country finally have the opportunity to force the issue of increasing domestic production of oil to reduce oil prices. I applaud, WHOLEHEARTEDLY, the actions of the GOP during this Congressional Recess to call attention to the lack of action and obstructionist policies of the liberals (Democrats). This is the opportunity to expose them to the light of day to the American Voters and perhaps even begin the process of regaining the Majority in either the House or Senate.
Instead, we find you involved in the Gang of 10. A bi-partisan sell-out. I urge you to stand your ground against the attempts by the Democrats to hamstring this country into third-world status. Our economy depends on inexpensive energy. The recent runup in gasoline and oil prices is just now beginning to have concrete negative effects. People have cut back on non-essential spending. and because of this, businesses are laying off or shutting their doors. This can only get worse, much worse, unless we take ALL steps necessary to increase the supply of oil.
Remove any restrictions over any identified oil fields for drilling. Streamline the process for more refineries. Force the EPA to reduce the ‘boutique’ blend requirements. In short, stand firm and force the Democrats to play their hand of obstruction, then openly point that out to struggling Americans.
