Oil and Nancy Pelosi marching orders

[Getback]

I was listening to a talk radio station earlier this week. One of the guests said that "we can't drill ourselves out of this" The same statement that Nancy Pelosi said. So it seems the dems have their marching orders. What really irritated me about this was can't a democrat think for themselves and are they suppose to represent the people who elected them or Nancy Pelosi. I believe, and I'm not totally sure on this, it was someone called Roma who made read the script sent to him by Pelosi. Just sad.

Pelosi is too stupid to write a script.

why doesn't anybody talk about increasing refining capcity to

[Pooh21]

T Boone Pickens is spamming the same thing

"we cant drill our way out of this crisis"

Thats another thing that needs to be done.

Because the Republicans also have their marching orders...it's called "Blame a Democrat".

Because the US already has enough refining capacity. In fact, it has too much at the moment. In June refiners took just 8.5% of the price of a gallon of gasoline to cover their costs and profits. That's about 35c a gallon. You can't get refining costs much lower than that, in fact they may already be unsustainably low.

Crockett.  B ush just lifted the Presidential ban on offshore drilling.  What is holding up the DEMOCRATIC led Congress from lifting their ban?

They know the high oil prices are damaging to the republicans.
I doubt they want to do anything to change that right now.

there is no way you can really be this dense.  this isn't a dem/rep challenge and neither party will move forward until they are kicked in the bellybutton at the grass roots level.

all of us should be bombarding our reps in both house with messages emails and letters demanding action be taken on all fronts.  that would be drilling, alternatives in the transportation sector and utilizing nuclear power to generate electricity.

turn your banal posts into productive communication to our elected officials in that hellhole we have created in DC

we all should

Nancy doesn't want to make the pres. look like he knows what he is doing!! I.E. we cant do what he did, that would mean he was right!!

It is one of the bounciest, most fun political footballs I've seen in a long time.

Still, look at France.  Most of their electrical energy comes from nuclear power plants.  They export power to other countries!

Why don't WE do that?  Liberal democrats is why.

Same with tapping our own fossil fuel.  I think the record clearly shows obstructionism on the part of the democrats over the years.  

And now, during the election campaigns Pelosi and the dems will certainly drag their feet.  We will see a change in the democrat position after the election.  people will laugh at the democrats when they flip flop on this.  We WILL drill.

And we will explore, refine, and develope new technology for energy.
