#1 The Democrats stance on domestic oil production symbolizes the height of liberal elitism. There was a rally on the Hill earlier this week called "The War on The Poor!" The organizers bused in close to a hundred (99% African American) activists demanding the Democratically-controlled Congress do something about high gas prices and stop kow-towing to the environmentalists. They were essentially calling for Pelosi's head. It was awesome.

#2 I think they are the last ones to figure out that this single issue could eat them alive in Nov.

#4 Uncle Phester, good catch on that one.
Those are all sensible, well conceived ideas to help with the demand side, and I will applaud their implementation. But that still wont do it by itself, we need to stabilize the oil market with surplus production capability to really de-fang the Arabs. WTF is wrong with the Dems? They seem to want to keep us in under their boot. I thought the Repubs were supposed to be the evil mortgagers of human suffering and woe?

#5 Dems are worthless, loathsome pieces of human garbage that truly hate this country, and particularly its white inhabitants. When I hear someone admit to being a member of the Democrat Party, I immediately assume they have no judgment, no morals, no scruples, and can't be trusted any further than I can cover them with a loaded handgun. I won't knowingly allow a Dem in my home.

#6 Uncle Phester, I wonder if the donks realize how phrigging phoolish they look. Proposed H.R. 6495 (Democrats Float Bill to Curb Gasoline Demand) is absolutely, abjectly ridculous, silly, and an insult to taxpayers and citizens. Our local police are cutting back on patrol beats. The gasoline budget for the police is about 0.4 million over budget this year. Our bus company is looking for ways to eliminate bus routes. I think we ought to "drill" inside the heads of the donks to see if there is anything there. It is really practical to move closer to a bus stop as proposed by this bill. Morons.

#7 Dont worry, this is going to bite them in the ass. They have no connection to reality anymore, and people are griping out loud.
