Pelosi will get her come uppings sooner than later.
But she’ll try to place the blame on Bush. Everyone else does.
What the Democratic Left fails to see or acknowledge is one simple fact. They are impeding the oil companies from what they do best. Find the oil and extract it. Billions upon billions of barrels of oil have been found both in Alaska, the Gulf of Mexico and along the Atlantic shelf. Yet, our Democratic Party Congress has repeatedly refused the oil companies the right to drill.
Just how much does America spend each year purchasing oil from countries like Mexico, Venezuela, and Saudi Arabia?
The the Democrats have the temerity to claims that we are in deficit spending. Or, whine about the cost of fuel.
While we’re at it. I was always told that it was illegal for Cartels to be formed.
Let’s see, we have the Drug Cartel, the Muslim terrorist Cartel, and we also have the Oil Cartel. All illegal and all functioning. Yet, no one does a blessed thing about it.

Gee, you mean when we had the WH, House and Senate, we shoulda woulda coulda gotten this done? Spare me. Our energy policy is a Republican disgrace ... perhaps even more disgraceful than Republican immigration policy.

Do you mean to tell us that a President ... an Oil man ... who could have stated that oil "OIL," is going to power us for the next century, at least ... could not have offered leadership on domestic drilling and led the way on refinery expansion? No, instead we get endless blather from him on "alternative" sources, "global warming," blah blah blah.

We're looking down both barrels of an economic disaster here that an effective President could have headed off a long time ago. We blame the Democrats? I greatly fear the voters will not do so.

We are staring something else in the face: The Republican Party had a glorious birth, a pretty darn good life for a long while, is presently in decrepit old age, and just might be afixin' to die. And it ain't the Democrats' fault, they're just the beneficiaries.
