CONGRESSMAN MIKE PENCE Joins Bill Collier of DontGo on BTR!
Today, Tuesday, August 26th at 4:30 pm EDT!
DON'T MISS THIS SHOW!
"Media" Tries to Downplay Pelosi's Abuse of Power
But the REAL Media Says "NOT SO FAST!"
DON'T STOP FOLKS!!
JUST SAY NO TO GANGS!!
Congressman John R Carter of Texas says Gang of 10 a "Bad Deal"
Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed a total lack of our "Establishment Media/Misinformation Socialist Monarchy" reporting on the price of gas and food for the past 2 weeks?
New FTC Rule Could Apply To Pelosi
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.
BEHOLD the Power of the People, and the Power of
Nancy: "most open, most honest, and most ethical Congress in history"
Nancy: "and Democrats promise to work together in a bi-partisan way for all Americans."
What is the truth about Nancy?
"Madam Speaker has a substantial amount of money invested in Clean Energy Fuels Corporation." dontgo
From the same article:
"Only 20% of Americans now oppose offshore drilling.." Rasmussen
We have THREE DEMANDS for both the House AND the Senate! (call both House and Senate offices)
1) Congress MUST STOP PROTECTING Nancy's purse, get back to Washington, DC and vote on the American Energy Act!
2) Begin an IMMEDIATE investigation into CLNE, Pelosi, and other investors!
3) Demand that the Broadcaster Freedom Act be brought to the floor for a vote!
MELT THE LINES TODAY FOLKS!!!
As for the Gang of 10.
I had several conversations with these offices yesterday. They NEED to hear from us.
WE WANT THE BOEHNER BILL!
1) The House (Republican and Dem) has heard the people and know that this is the bill we want.
2) The Senate (this may be a surprise to some) actually represents the EXACT same people the House does! (amazing isn't it)
3) PREGO! yes, PREGO! It's in there! Boehner's Bill includes renewables, solar, wind, nuclear, AND drilling.
4) We don't want "something done" for the sake of "getting something done." WE WANT A SOLUTION!
5) If ANYTHING needs to added to the Boehner bill it is this, we need to allow drilling without interference of baseless lawsuits from anti-progress, anti-independence yahoos.
6) If BOEHNER'S BILL is not able to pass the Senate- then let the PEOPLE see that the Republicans offered solutions, and the Dems BAWKED!
7) If nothing gets passed-- well, the sunset on the congressional moretoreum will expire and then.......
LET THE DRILLING BEGIN!!!!!!!!!

Dem Politicians Named as Punishers of the Poor (Dems exposed for harming poor!)
"A coalition of leaders from the African American, civil rights, faith-based and veteran communities this week blasted several Members of Congress as “Punishers of the Poor,” saying that they all scored a perfect zero on an affordable energy voting scorecard. The six politicians who earned top honors as the “worst of the worst” among those supporting higher energy prices—and who were memoralized in a Punishers of the Poor deck of playing cards—are these:
Joker: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Joker: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid Ace of Spades: U.S. Senator Dick Durbin Ace of Diamonds: U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer Ace of Clubs: U.S. Rep. George Miller (D-CA) Ace of Hearts: U.S. Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA)
Streaming video of the press conference to unveil the “Punishers of the Poor” at the Democratic National Convention in Denver can be seen here.
“These six politicians are the leaders and generals in charge of waging an unprecedented war on the poor,” said Niger Innis, National Spokesman for the Congress of Racial Equality and co-chairman of the Alliance to Stop the War on the Poor. “By pushing policies that restrict American energy supply and thus push prices higher, they are delivering daily punishment to low-income and poor families across the nation. What these politicians are doing is immoral, and we intend to wake up the American people to the fact that this war being waged in every city in America today.”
“We call this a war on the poor because high energy prices disproportionately impact America?s poor and low-income families,” said Bishop Harry Jackson, Chairman of the High Impact Leadership Coalition and national co-chair of the Alliance. “With prices expected to rise this winter from 25 to 50 percent, we are in a true crisis. These prices are actually a highly regressive tax on America?s most vulnerable citizens. The war on the poor must stop. To do that, we must increase our supply of all energy resources, including coal, oil and gas, nuclear power—and encourage greater conservation.”
“High prices hit poor families hardest,” said Bishop Phillip Porter, Chair of Colorado Consumers for Affordable Energy and the founder of All Nations Pentecostal Church of God in Christ in Aurora, Colorado. “A recent study shows that while median income families have to devote five cents on a dollar of their income to energy costs, poor families have to devote upwards of 50 cents on the dollar. That is fifty cents they can’t spend on health care, or education or food.” “The poor are being decimated by high energy prices, which are also driving up food costs and other necessities of life,” said Ralph Conner of the non-partisan Heartland Institute..."
Tea party bump
The House rebels are getting to “Drill your Brains” Pelosi. Haha!
Keep The Faith bump
I personally thanked my representative, Thelma Drake, at a gathering held by “radical islamophobe” (according to the NYT) Brigitte Gabriel. Thelma said that Pelosi shut down the debate because there is such bipartisan support for drilling, she knew she would lose.
Also, there is a quiet “gang of 40” that is trying to get a drilling bill through. The libs even raised the objection to natural gas drilling off the Virginia coast by saying it would interfere with Navy operations. Thelma said that was resolved quickly and quietly between DoD and Interior, with both parties saying any conflict would be resolved by the President in order for drilling to take place.
There’s movement, folks, and our reps do appreciate the support they’re getting, and I passed along to Thelma that there is a running thread on FReep to follow their activities. She was surprised, pleased, and very encouraged.
D.C. Chapter Master Ping List
Good that you got some sleep.
No worries, there are lots of us to stand by and watch the antics.
Wonder when somebody from The O’s campaign staff is going to decide that we’re all a bunch of hate-filled neocons and come looking to silence us?
LOL
Guess they haven’t figured out which fire under their butt is the hottest yet.
THANKS THANKS!
UPWARDS AND ONWARDS!
Top 20 bump...been a few days since I checked in.
I’m ready to fight back for the Republic that we had (before I was born).
Thanks for keeping us up to date!
Keep at it. Gas is down just below $4.00 in parts of So. California. I guess somebody found some oil somewhere they could sell cheaper, maybe they can find more...
I heard someone refer to the Gang as the ‘gang of 16’ yesterday. did the number of RINOs increase?
(this was in reference to Norm Coleman so I guess that’s entirely possible.)
Thanks for the ping.
Is there a list of congressmen who have been involved with this?
Fred Upton is my congressman and I know he is on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, but I don’t remember him sticking around the first couple days of this thing.
He is up for re-election, and I wanna know if he really does deserve my support.
I guess I could call his office.
