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

I called the Ethics Committee...they said they are aware of it, but are under disclosure rules and cannot comment on whether there is any investigation into it or not...

yet pubbies are routinely bought up on ethics charges - with little to no evidence - and made above-the-fold news for weeks...hmmmm "can't comment"?

Calling and e-mailing him with links to the articles so he can read up on it and hopefully get her out of there for good!!

[Unrepentant VN Vet]

Okay, so as an engineering project, don’t tell me “can’t”.

When

How much

Cost

....that should do for starters.

The mud has begun to hit the public fan about the Pickens conflict of interest. At long last, Mrs. Pelosi, have you no shame? Have you no decency?

The thing to watch is the GAP between the 91% not in approval of Congress and “only” 61% approving them coming back to D.C. to do their job and VOTE... What is UP with 30% of these folks? Ask them, they live in a town near you and buy gas for their cars, too....

Congressional Approval Falls to Single Digits for First Time Ever
July 8, 2008 | Rasmussen Reports

The percentage of voters who give Congress good or excellent ratings has fallen to single digits for the first time in Rasmussen Reports tracking history. This month, just 9% say Congress is doing a good or excellent job. Most voters (52%) say Congress is doing a poor job, which ties the record high in that dubious category.

61% say Congress Should Vote on Offshore Drilling Right Now
August 13, 2008 | Rasmussen Reports

Six out of 10 Americans (61%) say Congress should return to Washington immediately to vote on lifting the ban on offshore oil drilling, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. But voters overwhelmingly expect Congress to adjourn this year without taking action.

POST OF THE WEEK:

I don’t know, but as the son of US naval officer officially deployed in the service of his country, I’d say McCain is a natural born US citizen. Obama, on the other hand, the Marxist, anti-America, anti-capitalist, anti-freedom son of a Muslim communist from Kenya is probably the kind of person the Founders had in mind to keep out of the presidency.

Thanks. I did not know that before today. BUMP-TO-THE-TRUTH!

Please don’t take my comment to cast aspersions on your knowledge. What I am saying is that as a non driller, it’s frustrating to hear such a wide range of predictions. Part of that is that some individuals may be referring to older data, the other part, as you point out, is coming from individuals that are overly optimistic.

Thanks for the daily thread. Good to see some light shining on the Pelosi/Pickens connections.

Ch-ch-ch-changes. Oh, Madame Pelosi.

Luckily for us, T Boone released those commercials or we would never have known who CLNE was or that Pelosi was an investor.

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.

Mrs. Pelosi, have you no shame? Have you no decency?

No. Neither one.

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

For all you do, this ping was for you! Thank YOU!

[NeoCaveman]

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.”

And he needs to drive the price of natural gas (the stuff I heat my house with) by turning it into a motor fuel, increasing the demand.

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

Good time to use the ‘Mother of all Pings’ I think. Pelosi could be in for a world of hurt, and that would unravel the DNC.

Six out of 10 Americans have forgotten that Congress doe not answer to the people anymore.
