Liberal politicians have the summary expectation that everyone ELSE is just as stupid and unprincipled as THEY are, themselves!

and you and I both know there are no quick fixes to this problem

No, there aren't. But there are some long term fixes that this kind of thinking prevents from happening.

The Keystone XL pipeline would be completed in about 2 years, immediately create thousands of jobs, could easily be extended to bring new oil finds in North Dakota to refineries and most importantly stop oil speculators from driving up prices because the US, the world's largest oil market, would have an uninterruptable oil supply from Canada.

Thanks for posting this further testament to the deterioration of leadership in America!

Just think!

On June 9, 1776, John Adams wrote from Philadelphia, "Objects of the most stupendous magnitude, and measures in which the lives and liberties of millions yet unborn are intimately interested, are now before us . . . ."

On June 11, a Committee was formed to develop a declaration of their intentions.

On July 4, 1776, a lengthy Declaration of Independence was adopted which changed the world! William Ellery, Rhode Island, later wrote that he stood where he could watch every person sign the document: "I was determined to see how they all looked as they signed what might be their death warrant. I . . . eyed each closely . . . . Undaunted resolution was displayed on every countenance."

What a contrast! Our ancestors, in less than a month, took the kind of courageous action that leaders who love their country take on behalf of liberty for "millions yet unborn," accomplishing in just weeks what no civilization had accomplished before.

Today, feckless pretenders to leadership, living like kings in previous monarchies, personally risking nothing, make excuses for inaction and allow the precious inheritance of freedom to be risked for the sake of imposing coercive control over citizens and accumulating political power to themselves.

Stunned by what it costs to fill up?

Get a smaller tank!

Or, similar to putting a BRICK in your toilet tank, place some very clean river rocks in it, small enough to fit down the hole, but big enough not to clog the in tank filter.

A five gallon bucket of them would reduce the tank’s available volume by about 4 gallons.

Problem solved!

No more high fillup costs for YOU!
