When It Rains..Well, You Know The Rest

Monday, August 4th, 2008

It’s been a tough couple of days for the Speaker of the House.
Cindy Sheehan has secured the signatures which will qualify her to compete against the Speaker in her upcoming re-election bid.
Now that could be quite interesting to watch. Not that I expect Ms. Sheehan to to a serious threat [...]

Why We Didn’t Drill Our Own Oil—A Timeline

Saturday, July 26th, 2008

I’m going to point you to three links on the same blog with charts to show why we haven’t begun to explore our own resources in getting oil so we wouldn’t have the prices at the pump and for heating we have now. Also remember that the price of oil affects the price of [...]

Talk, Talk, Talk

Sunday, July 20th, 2008

A very appropriate song

for those who make a lot of noise, but take little action: HT:RCP

Congress MUST Step Up (Updated to add video)

Monday, July 14th, 2008

With a nine percent approval rating at last look, will Congress have the audacity to not agree with the President?
It’s a call to arms people. President Bush is lifting the decades old executive ban on offshore drilling, but it must have congressional support.
I’d like to believe this time will be different and will applaud the [...]

U.S. Has Enough Shale Oil to Last 400-500 Years!

Monday, July 14th, 2008

In the past the price of crude oil imported from the Middle East has been low enough that it didn’t justify the cost of trying to extract oil from shale.
Now that the prices are so high per barrel it appears we are sitting on more affordable oil reserves in this country that could last us [...]
