Business remember you can only make a certain money, if you go over that amount we will give it to other people. We will take any extra money under Obama.

And the libs say he isnt a Marxist,...RIIIIGGhT.

"We could but it would have little impact on the global price. I have heard its 5-7 years before it hits the market in any meaningful quantities due to the lagtime associated with mining it.




We have been hearing this same lame excuse for 4 decades now.


DRILL NOW, OR GET THE HELL OUT OF OFFICE.

Barack Obama has seen which way the wind is blowing on gas prices, and today he changed his mind about offshore drilling:

"My interest is in making sure we''''ve got the kind of comprehensive energy policy that can bring down gas prices," Obama said in an interview with The Palm Beach Post.
"If, in order to get that passed, we have to compromise in terms of a careful, well thought-out drilling strategy that was carefully circumscribed to avoid significant environmental damage%u2014I don''''t want to be so rigid that we can''''t get something done."
----------------------------------------
About time I hear something that makes sense from Obama lips. Now Obama get your boss Nancy to get back in the Congress Session and Pass a Bill. Will See Oil spiral as soon as its signed. The psychology of the World finding out America is going to Drill for its own oil, will make the market unstable. Will start seeing 2.00 gas. IT WILL HAPPEN. or we Could just go Inflate our tires.

A far better solution is to close the Enron loophole and make people who trade features take delivery of it or pay all their profit as taxes for deficit relief.

---------------------------------
Just the psychology of the World finding out that the United States is going to supply its own energy, will have Oil Prices spirling. SO WHY DONT THE DEMS WANT TO DO IT. THEY WILL LOSE THE ELECTION JUST BECAUSE OF THERE STUBBORNESS TO NOT DRILL.

How would you like to pay 50% of your income to taxes, then have some"one" take another 25% because they can? Turn out the light, we can see who cares Nancy.

Obama left no doubt about the political calculation behind his flip-flop:

As I''ve said before, there is no philosophical or political principle that Obama cares much about, other than the desirability of his own ascension to the Presidency. So we can look forward to more such shifts between now and November.

AND NOW YOUR STUPID IDIOT IS CAVING IN ON DRILLING SPINNING SOME BULL *** ABOUT THOUGHTFUL DRILLING STRATEGY AND YOU PEOPLE WILL HUM/P IT LIKE IT''S GOD''S GIFT TO MANKIND! My Gawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwd!

If you think to continue chit chatting with these people like we''ve already been doing for over 40 years is the answer, go for it!

Obscamma''s already been wrong on Iraq, backpeddled on his every stance because it was stupid in the first place...and now thinks he wants to cowboy up and fight!

Good luck!

Strange isn''''t it? The trader''''s are already backing off at the hint of flooding the market! I suspect they have a more realistic view of how fast the market can be flooded than the bureaucrats that want to lie to you for their own personal agenda, like getting elected.

Posted by WellHell3,

It shows how rumors can influence trading. They will probably invest in the Euro since the dollar is falling like a brick.

He''''s screeched for months that all we need to do is sit down and tea TALK these idiots into peace!

If that shows you creditibility, it''''s your choice. But what it shows me is a total IDIOT!


Posted by WellHell3,

What it shows me is he is saying things to get elected like McCain is. Dealing with people who are willing to kill themselves to take out other is going to be a problem.

We can deal with it by making glass parking lots or by working with governements to eliminate the source. I do not have the answers but then neither does Obama or McCain.

Unofrtunately, I have to defer to past performance and Obama wins that by the skin of his teeth.

Do you actually believe this? This is what I call a panic attack. Bush has not been able to capture OBL and Afganistan is on the brink of collapse. Now you are telling me the McCain is going to do better after making sure the rich GOP base gets their cut?

I am sorry but I guess my vote is going to cancel yours out if we live in the same state. After watching McCains attack adds, he has no credibility and hidden agenda that will sink us all.

Frankly, I''''''''m not looking to McCain to solve our economic problems!

Congress will pro''''''''bly be rife with democrats, let them get off their arse and do something for a change and solve, or they can lose their damned jobs!

I want someone at the helm that will defend and protect this country...and that man is McCain!

Without a unsecured country, you wont have to worry about an economy , because there wont be one.

If Obama takes away are Nukes and then Iran develops more over the decade the Muslims will Finally get there World Domination and will all be praying to Allah towards Mecca.

Exactly! And I don''''t trust the Islamofast hugger to have his heart into defending us from it!
----------------------------------------------
Whats Funny is these liberals who are against War and the War on Terror. And who defend the Muslims to walk all over our constitution and Demand rights that Americans could not ask for is disgusting.

If the Muslims ever took over and instituted Sharia Law the Muslims would not even think twice of cutting off a Liberals Head if they didnt pray five times a day. THank God that we had real Men and Patriots Fighting World War 2, because from what I see in the states Patriotism and Love for the Country is being swallowed by the Move on.org Crowd. With Obama and Nancy in Power, America should be Frightened. Every bit of there socialist legislation will get passed and they will elect liberal judges who will walk all over the constitution.
