CAN'T do attitude

America has always been a can do country.

Barack Obama wants you to believe in
HOPE, ACTION, CHANGE, CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN and CHANGE THAT WORKS FOR YOU.

You're going to need all the change you can get to pay the higher gas prices the Dummycrats promised to reduce two years ago.

SNOBama is fond of saying YES WE CAN, but said NO WE WON'T in response to drilling offshore in Florida.

"When I'm president, I intend to keep in place the moratorium here in Florida," Obama said. He compared the proposal for more offshore drilling to the "gas tax holiday gimmick."

A gimmick he voted FOR three times as an Illinois State Senator.

SNOBama claims to want to "reduce our dependence on foreign oil for good."

Then Invest in America and create American jobs by drilling here, NOW!

Offshore drilling of Texas and Louisiana is credited with...

creating jobs, bolstering state revenues and perpetuating a vibrant social structure in coastal communities. Revenue from mineral leases in the Gulf of Mexico go into Texas' $25 billion permanent school fund. They generated $51.9 million in fiscal 2007.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration has domestic reserves at 75 billion barrels of oil.

Enough to replace every barrel of non-North American imports (Canada & Mexico) for 22 years.

Don't look to the Dummycrats for help, their solution has been to sue OPEC and stop adding to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

That's worked WELL and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Now they're taking a page out of the Maxine Waters playbook to socialize, err nationalize oil refineries.

As our friend Pat said...

First they won’t let us build any more refineries.

Then they won’t let us drill offshore or in Alaska.

Now they want to nationalize the refineries to control the flow of oil which they obstructed by the first two items.
That must make sense following Democrat logic.
