No oil, no natural gas, no coal or wood burning, no nuke, only wind and sun power. We do not need the so called fossil fuels to power our world. The enviros know best. Kennedy, Kerry, Obama, Hillary, they know what is best for us. Big Brother USA Nanny Nation knows what is best for all we stupids of AmerryRIca. We are unable and have no abilities to think. So, just carry on. Nothing to see here. Nothing to hear. Mama Nanny will care for us all. Obama and Hillary will save us. They will give us 25 cent per gallon gas again just as soon as they are elected. Then socialized medicine, naturalize all the oil companies and medical and insurance companies. No prob. We will be fine. /sarcasm still on.

"Or shall we simply keep buying $111 barrels of oil from people who want us dead?"

[B.O. Plenty]

.....and there is no one in congress who will be held acountable for all of this.

All congress-people should get down on their knees and thank God that they live in the U.S. where we do not make them pay dearly for what they do.

....it seems that "punishing" them at the ballot box is a pitifully small price for them to pay.....

[NormsRevenge]

All these years squandered and resources sit by idly to this day ,, waiting to be tapped and used by a nation that continues to be held hostage to “market forces”.

It makes you wonder how much monies flow, from those who gladly sell us the oil , etc, into our politicos and envirowacko groups coffers? One need only ask who has stood in our way to offshore drilling and anwr being opened years ago.

Or is that an unfair question to ask?

The socialist dictators in the US Congress, yes I think they’ve become dictators who have invaded every facet of our lives and have set out to destroy our futures, will continue their oppression until the American people say no more at the voting booth. Sound harsh, I don’t think so. It’s a very ugly and sinister reality.

[Ooh-Ah]

How much do you think the price of oil would go down in 1 day if the Congress announced they were going to consider drilling in ANWR?

“This whole situation has been nothing more than manipulation around greed,” Rep. Joe Larson (D-Conn.)

I guess they don't teach "supply & demand" in Connecticut schools. LMAO

A very good piece by Deroy Murdock!

[pabianice]

It’s pretty simple. When people can no longer afford gasoline and when rolling blackouts hit, the public will rise up, beat the crap out of the hippies, and start drilling. We’re not there yet.

[Dick Vomer]

that's what the democraps want...more unemployed people sucking on the government tit in order for them to justify taking more of our money.

I love it the way they say they "work" for us.... bullsh#t.

Or even better was jay Rockefeller telling Gen. Patreus that "we" are stressed out" about the war.

What a joke. Stressed out is the point man on patrol. The number two man in the doorway... the guys and gals riding shotgun in a convoy....while this putz yaks about "being stressed out" about the war.

It doesn't matter cause "no middle name" Obama, "her cankleness" Clinton and the rocket scientist/rino McCain all want to "preserve" the pristine wilderness of the tundra. Meanwhile the people up north freeze their tails off , the productive members of society have to pay more to drive to work in order to pay taxes...and they ride around on jets we pay for.

screw em all.

here are our three candidates for POTUS

[Ann Archy]

Who's more powerful.....the President of the US OR the ECO GEEKS???

Why do I keep hearing that the Environmentalists won't LET us Drill or Refine??

Why are Foreign Leaders STRONGER than THEIR ECO-GEEKS??

[New Jersey Realist]

Our congress is saving our oil so when the dims get into office and turn our country over to the muslims, the muslims can have the oil. Screw Americans is their mantra. I think it's time for true American citizens to take up arms and march to Washington. This is the reason our founders wanted its citizenry to have arms. Time to take this country back.

Write or call your congress critter.

“Losing these airlines likely will boost plane-ticket prices, which already have climbed alongside fuel bills.”

Which is exactly what the greenies want. Less energy but more expensive energy so we will use less.
