If California voters pulled their heads out of their collective arse and realized they could actually get money from the government for licensing oil production off the coast, they might actually pass such an initiative.

California, where children grow up to hold public office so they can destroy it.

Oh come on... there has to be a presidential candidate in that Gang of Ten. Everyone knows these gangs are wholesome, doing just the right thing for our nation. /s

Just one more reason why I won’t be supporting you know who.

“”BULLETIN: OIL FALLS BELOW $100 A BARREL FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE EARLY APRIL”

Bush’s, Palin and McCain’s fault!

Hopefully, several left wing owned/controlled hedge funds will lose enough money on their oil and gold holdings to go out of business.

“If California voters pulled their heads out of their collective arse and realized they could actually get money from the government for licensing oil production off the coast, they might actually pass such an initiative.”

That’s a fantastic idea. But then we have Swartzaneggar for Governator and that ain’t likely to happen. And the California legislature has created the budgetary mess we’re in. Yet, they will re-elect these f*cks in a heartbeat. There is no England anymore. There is no California anymore. In short, they won’t pull their heads out of their arse because Californians have become accustomed to the taste of their own sh*t. California, Oregon, and Washington... Call them the “lost coast”.
