Yet oddly enough they haven't done a thing. Every time the confront President Bush they walk away with their tails tucked between their legs. Pathetic.<BR/><BR/>But heck, they can't even stand up to their own special interests groups- the environmental lobby among them. Imagine, a ban on drilling that was put in place when drilling technology was not as advanced as it is today and when gas cost $1.20/gallon. And yet the Democrats can't see that perhaps it is time to change policy considering that drilling technology has advanced and oil now costs $4 per gallon.John J.

Nice democratic congress and senate (but then again, the people voted for them). Offshore drilling could yield up to 18 billion barrels of oil over time, although it would take years for production to start...but it's something. The Dems just want to "invest in alternative fuels" - that's all fine but they've been trying that for years....we need some relief so in a few years we aren't paying $8 a gallon.<BR/>The funny thing is - the dems that were all for Hillary don't even want Obama--- he's Jimmy Carter all over again - it has nothing to do with Hate...it's all about fear of what he will turn this county into - A marxist state for one!petuniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01329221084413499431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20040504.post-12387307642024588522008-06-18T21:38:00.000-05:002008-06-18T21:38:00.000-05:00"dog food? come on....let's get a few better quote..."dog food? come on....let's get a few better quotes than that!"<BR/><BR/>Considering that Davis is a Republican, I thought it was pretty sober analysis of their chances in November. <BR/><BR/><BR/>"If the DEMOCRATIC Senate and Congress could get their heads out of their butts maybe we could get the gas prices down.

It's estimated that between 40 to 60 percent of the price of gas today is the result of "pure speculation" by the same financial institutions that brought us the mortgage mess.

You're going to see some major retail bankruptcies and commercial real estate collapses by fall due to tight money from the mortgage bust. If all the Republicans got is Michelle Obama's college papers and flag pins, you'll be lucky to hold 200 seats in the House. Keep it up , though, your pretty little hate machine is going to sour a lot more folks off the poison dog food that is the Republican Party...BB Churchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13245170067753517251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20040504.post-54137473736016736322008-06-13T11:33:00.000-05:002008-06-13T11:33:00.000-05:00----Or maybe it was just a Pavlovian response to t...----Or maybe it was just a Pavlovian response to the word "change."---<BR/><BR/>I would agree with that.<BR/><BR/>http://totaltransformation.wordpress.comJohn J.
