| Drill, Drill, Drill, into our minds..... Republicans say drill in Alaska. Democrats say drill off shore. Republicans say that won't work. Democrats say that wont work. Over and over and friggin over. Back and forth all day long on C-Span. The debates were endless. And as usual, only one thing got accomplished. The oil companies continue to get a free ride on the price gouging train. Am I the only one that see's the real truth in what is going on between the Democrats and Republicans? FACT: It doesn't matter how much oil is produced. It doesn't matter what part of the USA the oil comes from. The more oil the oil companies get, is just more oil they can refine and charge us $4 per gallon for. The oil they drill for isn't Americans. It doesn't belong to us or the Federal Government. It's not going to be handed to us in vouchers or coupons. It's going to continue to be owned by the oil companies until we, the American people, pay the over inflated price for it. All this talk about where to drill is non-sence. Because whether we drill in our own backyard, the oil companies have no reason to give us a break on the price. And the Market speculator have no reason to speculate a cheaper market price for a barrel of oil. Because no matter if it comes from the USA, Canada, Iran, Mexico or even Saudi Arabia, oil is oil is oil. And it's still over $130 a barrel. And is still about $4 per gallon. (and even higher for deisel) A vote for a Democrat or a Republican in 2008 is a waisted vote. |
