Dear Dim Senators,
Why should American voters be pissed at oil companies making $.10 on a sale of a gallon of gas and NOT be pissed that state and Federal Government makes $1+ on that same gallon of gas?

The oil companies should decide to stop production for a week and show these idiots in Congress who needs who.

“Angry DemocRATS!” ROTFL!!! What are the ‘RAT girlymen going to do, hit the oil guys with their purses? I hope the oil guys kick their asses. The oil boys have done more for America than every commie DemocRAT that ever sucked up and wasted oxygen.

Democrats posturing for electoral advantage among the parasite class they pander to. This display of dudgeon means nothing and both sides of the table know it. Merely a charade.

All by a government that has NO ENERGY POLICY other than to break its own oil companies and subsidize foreign country oil operations.
How is that hope and change working America???

The refinery near me is already running very slow, I reckon it's due to lower demand.
Scuttlebutt says demand has tapered off bigtime and product is backing up in the system like a bad taco.

Representing the scorned oil industry was John Watson of Chevron, Marvin Odum of Shell Oil, James Mulva of ConocoPhillips, H. Lamar McKay of BP America, and Rex Tillerson of ExxonMobil.

We have to choose priorities and right now we have a huge budget deficit, said Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York. So I want to ask you
what about your priorities? Do you think your subsidy is more important than the financial aid we give to students to go to college? asked Schumer, directing his question at Mulva. So if you had a choice as an American, which would you choose? Well Chucky Schmucky, how many jobs does your financial aid to artificially inflate the cost of a college education create, vs. how many jobs will your tax increase on the oil companies kill? Your priority should be on NOT KILLING JOBS. Dumbass!

What a laugh. Those executives owe the Democrats their low capital cost of profiting from established wells instead of taking risks to drill more at lower margins.
