The American people, struggling because gasoline still costs too much at the pump, asked Congress to provide real solutions. By an overwhelming majority, the American people chanted the mantra "Drill Here, Drill Now" and pleaded with Congress to lift the moratorium on domestic drilling.
But instead of heeding the call, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, just perpetrated a SHAM that may well turn out to be one of the cruelest hoaxes EVER played on the American people. |
On Monday, just before 10 o'clock in the evening, Pelosi submitted a previously unseen 294-page bill to Congress and using procedural shenanigans available to the Speaker of the House, she demanded a vote take place within 24-hours. And on Tuesday evening, 15 Republicans joined 221 Democrats to actually PASS THIS FRAUD ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!
No amendments were allowed and only limited debate took place. |
But wait! It gets worse.
Pelosi claims her bill was a compromise... a change of heart that ALLOWS off-shore drilling.
What Madame Pelosi didn't tell you (and what the liberal media isn't reporting) is that her SHAM bill -- H.R. 6899, the so-called "Comprehensive American Energy Security and Consumer Protection Act" -- only allows drilling in those areas where THERE IS NO OIL and effectively extends the moratorium on domestic drilling where THERE IS OIL ! What Madame Pelosi also didn't you -- other than the fact that the bill does the EXACT OPPOSITE of what she says it does and effectively CUTS-OFF domestic drilling at a time when Americans are struggling over the escalating costs of gasoline -- is that her "sham bill" also RAISES YOUR TAXES , and is LADEN WITH ENOUGH PORK TO CHOKE A GOAT! |
Expect more of this Soviet-style hi-jacking of the legislative process if Barrack Hussein Obama is elected President and Nancy Pelosi is his Speaker of the House.
...don't take our word for it:
According to House Minority Leader John Boehner Pelosi's "sham" legislation; "would permanently lock up 80 percent of our nation's offshore energy resources - holding hostage billions of barrels of American oil..." According to Congressman Jeb Hensarling it's "a hoax bill that would permanently prevent exploration of nearly 90 percent of the Outer Continental Shelf for American energy and block energy production in arctic Alaska and the Inter-Mountain West." House Minority Whip Roy Blunt said; "I'm offended.... And the American people should be offended that we're not doing the job for them that really matters." Our friends at The American Conservative Union (ACU) claim that Pelosi and Democrats in Congress are playing; "'Let's Pretend' with the American people, pretending they are passing a bill to increase domestic energy production when they know it will do no such thing." ACU further states, "The bill prohibits drilling less than 50 miles offshore when the sponsors know that, to give an example, 95% of the known reserves off the coast of California are less than 50 miles out." |
And in what is probably the CRUELEST CUT OFF ALL, Pelosi's sham bill just doesn't effectively cut off domestic oil production, IT RAISES TAXES AS WELL!
Pelosi recently gushed that B. Hussein Obama was "a leader God has blessed us with." And her legislative shenanigans prove that she'll be the willing Lieutenant of the man -- Barack Hussein Obama -- who once told us the solution to the our problems is to "inflate our tires" ... the man who told us ,"we can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times," ... the man who told us that drilling for more oil is "not real" and won't "solve our problems." NOW is the time to take our country back... |
The New Left Wing Anti-Energy Strategy: Deceive, Deceive, Deceive..." "But when you read beyond the headline of Speaker Pelosi's statement and get to the details, it is clear she is trying to maneuver to block the Republicans from having a straight up or down vote on a powerful energy bill. "Since the original anti-energy Democratic strategy of 'no, no, no' has collapsed they have moved to a new strategy of 'deceive, deceive, deceive.' "Their goal is to sound pro-energy just long enough to avoid defeat in the November elections while making sure that any legislation is hopelessly weak..." |
Politicians have a tendency to become accommodating when an election is just around the corner.
If you let them know -- in no uncertain terms -- that deception simply won't work, they'll do what you want... kicking and screaming all the way... but they will accommodate!
When it comes to B. Hussein Obama's real agenda on energy policy, perhaps, Ann Coulter said it best years ago:
"When the free market does the exact thing liberals have been itching to do through taxation, they pretend to be appalled by high gas prices, hoping the public will forget that high gas prices are part of their agenda." |
"I would be more interested in what the Democrats had to say about high gas prices if these were not the same people who refused to let us drill for oil in Alaska, imposed massive restrictions on building new refineries, and who shut down the development of nuclear power in this country decades ago." "But it's too much having to watch Democrats wail about the awful calamity to poor working families of having to pay high gas prices. "Imposing punitive taxation on gasoline to force people to ride bicycles has been one of the left's main policy goals for years. "For decades Democrats have been trying to raise the price of gasoline so that the working class will stop their infernal car-driving and start riding on buses where they belong, while liberals ride in Gulfstream jets." |
But some are more radical in their methods and more sinister in their motives.In fact, some Democrats in Congress have made what they're really after abundantly clear.
Recently, Congressman Maurice Hinchey called for the "Nationalization" of Oil Refineries:
"Maybe they'd be willing to have these companies owned publicly... owned by the people of the United States." |
Congresswoman Maxine Waters flubbed a statement on the floor of the House which is being played over and over again on the Internet website YouTube:
"This liberal (talking about herself) will be all about SOCIAL____ (stops and stammers) uhhhh... uhhh... will be about... (stops again) basically taking over and the government running all your companies." |
She's talking about SOCIALISM! It's all about SOCIALISM!
