You've got to be kidding

The National Republican Congressional Committee called today.

They wanted a donation. Just $500. These are really funny folks.

I made it real simple for the poor woman on the other end of the line (what a lousy joib she has). You want a donation, then fix the oil mess and quit destroying the value of the dollar.

I gave her two ideas:

1. Drill for oil inside the United States. (When they had majorities in both houses, they never had the guts to make this happen.)
2. Support the dollar.

Drilling for oil and building refineries sounds like a no brainer, but consider the audience.

Supporting the dollar would impact the price of oil and put downward pressure on oil. However, this is an Administration policy that has absolutely no validity in the current climate.

I'll end up voting Republican again, because the other guys are basically crazy. So we enter another election cycle without a real choice.

Brain Dead

Conngress just passed a law to sue OPEC for collusion.

Come again?

OPEC is an organization that is not subject to US law.

Congress wants to pass a windfalls profit tax to punish the oil companies.

Class warfare 101. Congress seeks to punish someone for the current mess.

Neither of these moves helps the price of oil or puts one more drop of oil into the system.

If these brain dead, morons want to fix the problem it is real simple. If they want to know who to blame, they should look in the mirror.

Drill! Drill in ANWR, off the west and east coasts and the Gulf of Mexico. We have barrels and barrels and barrels of oil in this country, but we won't drill and we won't build refineries.

Why? Because Congress has blocked any rational energy policy that comes down the pike.

It is time to throw the bums out and I mean all of them. Washington is severely broken and obviously corrupt.
