McCotter: Stop Pelosi Now!

"... Economically maimed by the pain at the pump, citizens demanded vacationing Speaker Pelosi and the Democrats’ “Don’t Care” Congress get back to work and pass an “all of the above” energy bill to lower gas prices.

Unmoved by these working families’ sufferings, Speaker Pelosi conjured up another so-called “energy” proposal – one that is already acclaimed by none other than the anti-energy zealots at the Sierra Club. Yes, this is the same Sierra Club that pronounced: “We’re better off without cheap gas.”

Unfortunately, the Sierra Club’s collective “we” included us.

Not surprisingly, then, the Speaker’s latest lethargy proposal apes other energy schemes she’s brought to the House floor without amendment and under a super-majority vote requirement. Desperate to guarantee these bills’ defeats and blame Republicans, the Speaker orchestrated the nauseating spectacle of “Don’t Care” Democrats, who a few months ago wouldn’t vote to drill a tooth, now hugging derricks instead of trees..."

Cheaper energy fuels individual prosperity.

I think we can see what the democrats have in mind for us by looking at the pump prices. No relief for us evil consumers.

Indeed! And all the while they lie through their filthy liberal teeth, sabotage energy bills so that they will fail, and then blame republicans for not allowing an energy bill to pass.

I imagine that if they are using the methane, they will burn it in a “Gas” engine/generator converted for Methane use.

The methane is not processed, just burnt. It is a dirty fuel and the engines require constant maintenance.

Here is an article on one of our competitors:

Everyone should write a letter to the editor to their hometown newspaper and tell voters to check out their reps’ voting history on DRILLING, and vote the antidrilling, antioil reps OUT!

And the silver lining is that proDRILLING reps are usually conservative in other ways, as well.

They are available in California:

In fact, I believe California is paying huge subsidies to get these installed.

You “dumb folks in the Red States” usually want to see a return on investment before buying them. That is why they aren’t very popular there. ;)

“Madam Speaker has a substantial amount of money invested in Clean Energy Fuels Corporation.”
:::::::
Pelosi, the sleaze bag she is, is running her own personal business affairs using her office as a platform. This is worse than a simple conflict of interest. It is gross abuse of power.

She should be impeached and thrown out.

And the damnedest thing is that most, if not all, of the investors are already wealthy! Pelosi is aways preaching about our responsibility to support the “poor”, yet here she is in the middle of a scheme to transfer BILLIONS of dollars from the very people she claims she want to help directly into her pockets!

She seeks to make money by graft and politics rather than to actually produce something.

Isn’t that interesting? It’s almost as bad a putin saying something and the stcok market in russia tumbles. Pickens and Pelosi speak, and try to influence the market in their favor. Why that’s almost criminal.
