When Bush W. took office he immediately tried to get everyone on board with more drilling in Alaska, but all we got was "we gotta protect the environmemnt" bullshit from the democrats.
Well now that oil is over $50 barrel they flip-flop and play the "goto war for oil" & "bush's rich oil friends are making a killing of the ordinary joe" bullshit.
Gosh I hate these damm hypocrites.
Generally, Republicans work, Democrats play. The Dems work really hard though when they are enacting huge social programs or huge taxation schemes. Otherwise, it's party, party, party.
Isn't this the same tactic as saying the President has given the drug companies $169 billion in subsidies and also that his "big drug company buddies are sticking it to the average joe"?
Are the subsidies for research? Aren't the lefties also crying for more money for AIDS drug research? Wouldn't that just be more drug company subsidies?
