Webloggin » We’ll Ruin Alaska… (No we won’t)

That’s what my dear, sweet, retired neighbor lady said to me today when we were discussing the energy ‘crisis’. She had been perusing T. Boone Pickins’ website, and was thrilled with what she saw. I told her that I was in favor of investigating all forms of energy, but I believe we need to be drilling offshore and in ANWR. She cut me off, in her sweet way, saying, “OH, NO! WE’LL RUIN ALASKA!”

No, my dear neighbor, we will NOT ruin Alaska, nor will we ruin ANWR, nor will we ruin the tiny spot where drilling would occur. Yes, my neighbor is a Democrat, a Liberal, and she has been brainwashed by CNN. See the following images (click to enlarge).

The problem is, you cannot reason with people who are already brainwashed.

Now, in other Liberal news, Lawmakers Could Consider Gas Tax Hike, After Gas Tax Holiday Fails, according to Fox News.

Despite calls from the presidential campaign trail for a Memorial Day-to-Labor Day tax freeze, lawmakers quickly concluded — with a prod from the construction industry — that having $9 billion less to spend on highways could create a pre-election specter of thousands of lost jobs.

Now, lawmakers quietly are talking about raising fuel taxes by a dime from the current 18.4 cents a gallon on gasoline and 24.3 cents on diesel fuel.

The politicians whine (yes I said whine) about the high cost of gas for the American people, but they are UNWILLING TO DO SQUAT to help, they are not willing to cut back on their spending one red cent. On the contrary, they are willing to INCREASE THE BURDEN ON AMERICANS, so that they can GO ON SPENDING. Send the bums home.

The Democrats created the victim class, they continue to support the victim class, … but not if is hurts their pot of gold in Washington.

From Tom’s Place, Where’s the Energy?

Frankly, I’m not counting government to do anything for us. Just look at the political idiocy going on over what to do about the price of gas, and you’ll understand how moronic & how out of touch with their constituents our elected Congresscritters really are. For instance:

Congress has its own ban on offshore energy exploration, and the Democrats who run Congress have shown no sign that they are willing to follow Bush’s example. They have preferred to make excuses–about why the price of oil is rising, who is to blame for its rise, and why increasing domestic supply won’t do anything to ameliorate the problem
