Wow. She called for an investigation.

Somebody give her a medal.

I guess she did not hear about this-

“on Friday reported that operations had returned to normal at its oil refinery in Torrance, California, following a disruption by a power provider on Monday.

Exxon Mobil reported prior this week that power had been cut to the complete refinery because of an outage at a Southern California Edison substation. The Power outage directed few units to blackout and others to slow down.

On Friday, the oil exploration company reported that it is rationing the fuel it supplies to spot-market clients on the West Coast.”

They need to stop grandstanding. Better yet, they should admit their incompetence and resign from office. They have driven CA into a ditch.

Democrats always asking for investigations of high gas prices. All they need to do is walk into the White House and talk to their boss. He has caused them but the democrats would like to appear that they are upset about it while toasting each other in the backroom.

Senator Tootsie,

You had a fire at the Richmond refinery.
You had a power outage at the Torrance refinery.
You have chloride in the Kettleman pipeline.
You can only sell a certain blend of gasoline in California.

Did it ever occur to you that instead of blowing $40 billion for a choo-choo train you should have used that money to build a state of the art ‘Green’ refinery?

Even Pat Brown, a Democrat, had California build state owned hydroelectric dams and water projects.

The last complex oil refinery in the continental United States was built in 1976 [Garyville, LA].

Maybe we should build a new one?

Ya Think?

MORON.

( * Dianne Feinstein tells regulators to investigate high California gas prices * )

The acorn does not drop to far from the oat tree.

Maybe there should be a investigation to see how much stock Dainne Feinstein, Barbra Boxer, and Nancy Pelosi has in those oil companies ?

I just had a storyline about a modern day Robin Hood story, a group organizes a event that at a certain time all stations in a certain area that are pumping gas for a short time have a glitch and sell the gas at 35 cents a gallon like it was some years ago.

The device is portable and they run around southern CA using it secretly, nobody knows where or when but instead of paying $50 of 10 gallons you pay $3.50.

Fixed it for you. Robin Hood didn't steal from businesses, he stole from the government.

The government steals our lives away from its infested Communist disease, why feel sorry for it?

If your story is about people going to different gas stations to steal, that isn’t a modern day Robin Hood story. It’s no different than gangs taking over gas stations in Detroit and saying “we own this.”

Its a story friend, its in a book, its fiction, it sells, it creates an income.

Its not my fault if somebody disagrees with it, if I had an audience around for every idea I pen I would be standing in a bread line. Separation of reality and fiction.

So you disagree, I disagree that you disagree and I substitute my fantasy for your reality, its my destiny to create.

You can create all the fantasy you want. Just don’t come here trying to pretend it’s a modern day Robin Hood story. Those of us who actually know what Robin Hood was about dislike the liberal mantra that Robin Hood robbed from the rich to give to the poor.

” She knows the winter blend is coming but wants to get credit for it. Also keep the blame on “big oil.””

The Village Idiot could see through this, so that means her constituents won’t have a clue : )
