The price of gas when Obama took office

February 24th, 2012 | No Comments

Liberals are rather aghast that some people assert Obama’s policies have driven the price of gas in this country through the roof.  Now that gas is nearing $4.00 a gallon, it’s become an issue to be debated seriously.  And, it is: who is at fault for these gas prices?

Good question! QuestionsView Results What’s that you say? I left something out? Oh yeah. How many people would have answered differently if they had known it was Sarah Palin? Be honest. So many people are so hung up on the “Sarah Palin is stupid” liberal talking point that they more often than not will react [...]

September 3rd, 2009 | No Comments

Here’s the story: The AFL-CIO labor union has a new tax in mind. Specifically, the union wants to apply a small tax — a tenth of 1 percent — on every stock transaction. The tax would especially target firms that use so-called high-frequency trading, which uses technology to oversee many transactions in the blink of [...]

Who ya gonna trust, EIA or your local electric company?

August 10th, 2009 | No Comments

The Energy Information Administration, who touts themselves as “Official Energy Statistics from the US Government”, released a rather astounding conclusion.  While most people have been scare-mongering by saying Waxman-Markey will practically bankrupt most lower income people through much higher energy prices, EIA says this is not true at all: ACESA increases energy prices, but effects [...]

Apparently smarting from polls that put his Senate leadership in the single digits, Harry Reid decided to fight back starting with this letter to The Hill Blog: When our country is in crisis, Congress must be ready to take immediate action.

The politics of the energy crisis

July 5th, 2008 | 2 Comments

The jam we’re in right now was put in place thirty years ago.  In that time, we’ve gone from being an energy exporter to an energy junkie.  It really doesn’t matter where we get our hit, so long as we don’t have to accept any responsibility for it.  For instance: Oil – The Democrats absolutely [...]

Stuck on Stupid: Nancy Pelosi

June 19th, 2008 | No Comments

And by stuck, I do mean stuck.  Nancy Pelosi has agreed to take into consideration four bills aimed at energy relief next week.  One item she absolutely will not even debate or discuss is offshore drilling.  Her logic?  Get this: Pelosi reiterated her position that Republican calls for more offshore drilling represent another chapter in [...]

Are all liberal talk show peeps stupid?

Now, I don’t believe that to be necessarily true, I just can’t find one I think is terribly smart.  Today’s example is Thom Hartmann.  In 2005, he tried convincing people that Jimmy Carter tried to prevent the Bush Energy Disasters – 28 years ago.  Now, the reason he states this is because Jimmy gave a [...]
