Will the socialcrats in Washington clean up the beaches after the Chicoms and Cubans drill?

Question

The socialist (I mean democrates) that have prevented the US oil companies from drilling off our shores; now have to deal with a much worse prospect....the communists. They are free to drill our oil while the us tax payers will be cleaning up any mess then leave...boy, aren't you glad we have such brillant people in Washington...paid by you.

Answer 1

Let's see.  The Democrats enforce laws that prohibit drilling and exporation while other countries are not so foolish and are therefore exploring and drilling where oil can be found.

Then we pay the middle-man.

Yup.  That's about it.

Of course, $5 gas takes SUVs off the road.  Has anybody noticed?  Don't think that the environmental crusaders haven't noticed.  This dynamic was created and is being maintained for a reason.  I can just imagine all of the backslapping after democrats speeches about the 'evil oil companies'.

These aging hippies have found a way to advance their vision of bicycles across America and aren't going to stop as long as we buy into their 'hearings' about excessive profits for the oil companies.

Wake up gang.  Mr Green Jeans is choking off the most affordable energy source and you are paying the price.

Answer 2

It really would be nice if you could back up your rant, with facts.

Thanks for the points

Answer 3

Communist drilling our oil was a rediculous lie.  Seriously a lie.

Look at the update at the top.  d**k Cheney asserts its not true.  Again, thats False.

Do you want to blame the liberals for the ban that GEORGE H.W.  BUSH created?  

Listen, if you want to believe that somhow the private sector doesn't exists, and that if oil was drilled off the coast it would be magically piped into your gas tank for low low prices than you are a fool.  

The demand for oil is growing such that any new oil drilled will be immediately consumed- not necessarily by us and not as some discounted price.  The oil will be sold by the oil companies on the open market to the highest bidder.  This is not a miracle solution.  Its election year politics that's trying to convince you that McCain and Bush can save you a buck when It will really amount to nothing!
