But, will the stupid DC folks wake up, or will they still resist drilling offshore and in ANWR?

The DEMS resist a sane oil policy sending $Billions to the Peaceful Muslims every year

The DEMS want open borders flooding our schools, our hospitals, our jails etc.

The Dems want to heavily tax the rich evil corporations which hurts employment

The Dems want to have unlimited unemployment benefits or saying it another way they want permanent WELFARE

The Dems want STRONG unions to negotiate good benefits for their workers so they can heavily contribute to the DEM politicians.

Are you starting to get it? The DEMS want to hurt this country in every way possible. The leaders at the top are Anti American TRAITORS, the useful idiots follow.

The REPUBS still haven't figured it out.

The answer to this problem is simple: Start drilling in ND, MT, TX, OK, etc., off shore and Alaska. Screw the ME, we don’t need them and we sure as heck don’t need Obama and these Democrats who are preventing us from getting our own oil.

Oh they're awake. The Obama Admin wants this and much more to bring down the US. The Interior Department was found in contempt of court for its second gulf drilling moratorium and has been ordered to pay legal fees to one of the oil companies. They don't seem to care. Now the Interior Department has been given thirty days to decide on pending permit applications by a Federal court because of continuing stalling. I wonder if they care about that either.

I say if it goes over $3.50, we're done.

Then we are done. Diesel here in Albuquerque hit 3.60 last week and that was before the Libya mess.

” Diesel here in Albuquerque hit 3.60 last week “

Unleaded regular was $3.16 at the Circle-K in TorC when I topped-off on Saturday morning — before Libya brewed up...

I’ll be afraid to look next Saturday when I go in for my weekly shopping.... :(

Remember when liberal Congress critters pilloried Big Oil for raising prices when gasoline neared $4 per gallon? Who will they blame now when Obama stopped offshore drilling, snubbed the Canadians who wanted to build another pipeline for moving crude to the US and embraced every radical environmentalist whacko idea to keep us from developing our own oil?

How long is it gonna take at $5.00 to finish the job???

Beginning of a civil war and the end of King Obama and his communists Administration. The MSM will come crashing down. The Unions will be destroyed. The last of Democratic controlled States. Thousands of Federal employees will be fired. Much more.

The GOP controlled both the house and senate along with the white house for 6 years. Yet nothing was done about drilling for oil in our own country.
