Please don’t take this personal, but why do you believe Newt will lower energy prices? I don’t. I don’t trust him since his make-out session with Nancy and his global warming BS. He fancies himself an intellectual, which to me means he has put himself in the same mental straightjacket as the pasty, thin-lipped, bow-tie wearing, horn-rimmed, tweed encrusted social retards who all flooded out of Harvard and landed in our nation’s capital three years ago like some Ivy-League jailbreak from hell. He believes what they believe, because that is the fashion and he wants to get invitied to the good cocktail parties too.

This idea that he is somehow ‘apart’ from Obeyme and the current crop of congresscritters mystifies me. He is of a kind with them, every bit as much of an insider. He hasn’t had a really original or ‘maverick’ thought since 1994.

Before I get called a ‘Romneybot’, let it be known that I don’t like any of them. I think Paul is nuts, Santorum is lame and Romney is tool. However, any of them is - not necessarily better, but less bad than Obeyme.

Lord preserve us that this is the best we can do.

It’s easy to get $2.50/gal or even lower.

WE JUST PRODUCE ENOUGH OIL HERE FOR OUR OWN CONSUMPTION.

And Saudi and Iran will beg us to buy their crude oil for $30/barrel instead of current >$100/barrel.

When they lower their price, we start buying from them again but we will use our domestic potential as bargaining leverage.

If you’re not going to hunt, stay in the damn truck.
