I think you refer to Barney Frank (D-MA) when you say “franks”. He is Chairman of the House Banking Committee, but he should be Chairman of the House Committee on Sodomy & AIDS.
Congress is getting more disgusting by the minute.

The Democrat "No Domestic Energy Policy!"
All of that puts the U.S. in a position that war for oil or
complete economic collapse will be our only choices.
You can't frustrate every source of domestic energy
without consequences. Our enemies will blackmail us
to the extent that we are vulnerable to blackmail.
The Democrats are leading us into a real war for oil.
A war we won't have the energy to fight. A war we don't need to fight because we have our own resources.
Yes I’m a cynic and the no drill energy policy coupled with the Wall Street mess appear to be calculated. I say this because (assumption) most of those complicitly involved are above average intellectually and well below average ethically. I can think of a number of reasons why someone would want the US of A to go away and what is happening now regarding our current disastrous leadership will most certainly lead to its’ demise. Might I add, with not a single shot fired.
What you may not yet realize is that he Democrat party has become the solely owned property of the extremist wing of the environmentalist lobby. The envirowhackos want $10 gas so that fossil fuel powered internal combustion and turbine engines will cease to be used for normal transportation and commerce, and electricty not produced by water, wind, or solar power will be outlawed. If they reach their ultimate goal our homes will be virtually unheated or air conditioned, our goods will be hauled by draft animals or wind powered watercraft, and we will ride bicycles or use some other non-motorized form of personal transportation to get to work, as if there would be any jobs in that kind of economy.
As insane as all that sounds, the whackos to whom so many Democrats owe their election success believe it would be highly desirable if it ended the practice of using fossil fuel energy just to make our our economy viable and our lives somewhat comfortable. Of course the Democrats aren't as stupid as they usually seem to be, and they will make sure to keep that illusory goal just out of reach of the whackos yet appearing to be attainable if the campaign money keeps flowing in.
Not a single shot fired ... yet. When people start getting hungry, shots WILL be fired.
I wonder why the Rats want to destroy the US? Who owns them, or are they just that stupid?
Well, I have read that the Chinese are doing it in the Florida Straits 50 miles from the keys in order to reach the oil on our side of the line between Cuba and our coast that was agreed upon before Castro's takeover. So I suppose the answer to your question is yes.
Of course American companies are forbidden to drill in that area, so I guess we may as well let the Chinese have it if it can't benefit us, thanks to a Reid-Pelosi run Congress.
Bush has never been especially fond of the veto pen. And as for the bully pulpit, he apparently had his vocal cords surgically removed at some point in the last year or so.

Perhaps the problem is, nobody listens:

Contact your Congress critters to let them that you know the best oil is located in the first 50-mile range, shoreline to 50-mile point.
U. S. House of Representatives
And un-elect all the dimocrats who will not support drilling EVERYWHERE!
Communists need to be sent to the wall.
I guess I missed Bush’s calls for reforming Fannie and Freddie, or maybe the MSM in it’s infinite wisdom didn’t see fit to publicize the President of the United States’ calls for changes in the way those mismanaged enterprises were being run. After all, it’s much more important to keep the viewers and readers up to snuff on the goings on of Hollywierd celebrities and the latest news on the Kennedy clan.
We will hear NOTHING in the MSM about the Democrats pushing subprime loans and/or covering for Freddie/Fannie.
We’ll hear NOTHING about Bush or McCain calling for reform of Freddie/Fannie and the Democrats opposition to reform.
