Drill Here, Drill Now- (Live Thread, Day XV)

Be sure to READ THIS!!

"Media" Tries to Downplay Pelosi's Abuse of Power

But the REAL Media Says "NOT SO FAST!"

 

Dwalsh

 

DON'T STOP FOLKS!!

JUST SAY NO TO GANGS!!

Congressman John R Carter of Texas says Gang of 10 a "Bad Deal"

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed a total lack of our "Establishment Media/Misinformation Socialist Monarchy" reporting on the price of gas and food for the past 2 weeks?

New FTC Rule Could Apply To Pelosi

After reading this post I decided to pull up her financial disclosure report and look for any other natural gas producers. On 11/8/07, she purchased between $250,001 and $500,000 of Quest Energy Partners, LP. (see pages 12 and 18). According to its site (http://qelp.publishpath.com), “The Partnership owns more than 2,300 wells and is the largest producer of natural gas in the Cherokee Basin, which is located in southeast Kansas and northeast Oklahoma and holds a drilling inventory of nearly 2,100 locations.”

Either she is so arrogant to think that nobody would find out that she is profiting by holding up new drilling and refining initiatives or she thinks nobody can touch her.

Has anybody checked Harry “The Body” Reid’s financial disclosure form? I’d say check Obama’s too but he hasn’t done anything but give speeches.

BEHOLD the Power of the People, and the Power of

 

Nancy: "most open, most honest, and most ethical Congress in history"

Nancy: "and Democrats promise to work together in a bi-partisan way for all Americans."

What is the truth about Nancy?

"Madam Speaker has a substantial amount of money invested in Clean Energy Fuels Corporation." dontgo

"T Boone Pickens runs CLNE, this is the company Nancy has invested in, and apparently, the push is Natural Gas, which is the focus of the $5 billion in Ca. tax money and $5 billion in fed money they are seeking."

From the same article:

"the investors in this ponzi scheme are banking on keeping the price of energy high, keeping the supply of domestic oil low on the basis of “environmental concerns”, and getting the government to invest BILLIONS in their plans, which will concentrate energy resources into fewer hands while making them all filthy rich."

"Only 20% of Americans now oppose offshore drilling.." Rasmussen

We have THREE DEMANDS for both the House AND the Senate! (call both House and Senate offices)

1) Congress MUST STOP PROTECTING Nancy's purse, get back to Washington, DC and vote on the American Energy Act!

2) Begin an IMMEDIATE investigation into CLNE, Pelosi, and other investors!

3) Demand that the Broadcaster Freedom Act be brought to the floor for a vote!

MELT THE LINES TODAY FOLKS!!!

 

As for the Gang of 10.

I had several conversations with these offices yesterday. They NEED to hear from us.

WE WANT THE BOEHNER BILL!

1) The House (Republican and Dem) has heard the people and know that this is the bill we want.

2) The Senate (this may be a surprise to some) actually represents the EXACT same people the House does! (amazing isn't it)

3) PREGO! yes, PREGO! It's in there! Boehner's Bill includes renewables, solar, wind, nuclear, AND drilling.

4) We don't want "something done" for the sake of "getting something done." WE WANT A SOLUTION!

5) If ANYTHING needs to added to the Boehner bill it is this, we need to allow drilling without interference of baseless lawsuits from anti-progress, anti-independence yahoos.

6) If BOEHNER'S BILL is not able to pass the Senate- then let the PEOPLE see that the Republicans offered solutions, and the Dems BAWKED!

7) If nothing gets passed-- well, the sunset on the congressional moretoreum will expire and then.......

LET THE DRILLING BEGIN!!!!!!!!!

Call the "Gang"

Lindsey Graham

John Thune

Saxby Chambliss

Bob Corker

Johnny Isakson

 

HERE is the House Bill

HERE is the "press release" from our "Gang"

No matter WHAT excuse or explanation they give you. You tell them- WE WANT THE HOUSE BILL- THERE IS NO NEED FOR GANGS! NONE! THIS IS WHAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT!

""Guess it won’t pass EPA standards in CA."

Want to see that change? How about a 30 cent surcharge on fuel that must be trucked into states that won't drill for their own proven reserves? Kalifornians will hang Shwartzie from some light pole at worst, down the street from from his fellow rats.

Or, he will get the message that people are getting that angry and do what people want. Hell, there is oil leaking up through the sand near beaches from Orange County to Ventura. A rig and maybe just a few hundred feet of pipe and maybe 2 weeks will have a productive well. Anywhere.

Or, he just enjoys kids throwing sticky tarballs at each other on the beach?

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!


Just another verse in the Democrat Party 'not for thee' mantra - "money for me, but not for thee."

Thanks for the ping!

Do any of you guys remember Calpine, Inc. that during the Gray Davis disaster lost it's A$$ while sidling up the the Sierra Flub and trying to corner the market in CA by generating electricity with nat gas?

In fact, tubebender can tell you all about Calpine's efforts to establish a liquified compressed nat gas port facility in Eureka, CA which is now headed for Mexico, just south of the border, instead.

Well, this T. Boone Picken play reminds me of the very same play Calpine tried of cozyin up to the leftists who control the government. It didn't work!!! Calpine was very close to Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Act, last I heard!!!

Does anybody else see the parallels here?

I remember Calpine....and Clean Energy has an outlet close to me and the junction of the 405, 605 and 22 Freeways near Los Alamitos and the Seal Beach Target complex....

The Bus Fleet of Orange county runs on LNG , I assume supplied by Clean energy....but I could be wrong on that,...never actually seen a Bus stopped there Filling up.

Yah! Well, I just thought what ol T. Butt Picken's (I call him that now that he's gone over to the darkside) doin with the Feral Government looks a lot like what Calpine was tryin to pull off, out here!

Picker's probably got more money than Calpine because their debt service got way too big, what with alla the moves they kept makin to "corner the market!"

All of a sudden, the whole thing turned on 'em and I'm wonderin if the same won't happen to T. B. Picker who tilts at windmills!!!

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

I see that this produces 50 Hz power. China uses 50 Hz power. They won’t care how dirty it is.

That was just the first link I found.

There are versions with 60hz as well.

When I said it was a “dirty fuel” I meant that there are impurities in the fuel that foul the engine sooner. It is “all natural” though ;)
