“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.

ConocoPhillip’s Mulva was targeted heavily throughout the hearing, and made to pay for a press release the company put out yesterday in anticipation of the hearing that called the tax proposal “un-American.” Both Senator Schumer and Senator Robert Menendez of New Jersey called on Mulva to apologize for the press release. “I want to hear from you, do you make those accusations lightly?” Menendez directed to Mulva at one point. “Or did you mean to question my patriotism?”

Well Bobby, since the tax proposal singles out 5 specific companies for special punitive treatment, it flies in the face of equal protection under the law and could be argued as a bill of attainder which makes it a violation of the very Constitution of the United States. Sounds pretty unAmerican to me. If that "questions your patriotism" then so be it. Take offense all you want, but it is you and your liberal friends in Congress destroying the economy, not the oil executives.

Most of the RATS are for HIGHER GAS PRICES, MORE LIKE PRICES IN EUROPE.
