FROM INVESTORS BUSINESS DAILY
HEAD: Feckless To Reckless, Pelosi Should Resign
Leadership: With oil hitting $147, Nancy Pelosi finally admits energy is a
problem. But instead of drilling for it, she's cooked up a new
drain-the-reserves scheme. It's pure politics at a time of crisis. She ought
to resign.
Any leader with an energy record as derelict as Speaker Pelosi's ought to
step down. Where she once was just incompetent and irresponsible, she has
now - with her latest scheme to fix oil prices - become dangerous.
Despite polls showing Americans in favor of drilling more oil from America's
huge untapped supplies, Pelosi won't allow it. She just wants to empty our
Strategic Petroleum Reserve for a short-term fix to get through Election
Day.
It's an irresponsible suggestion, signaling not only an ignorance of how the
economy works but also a willingness to place the nation at risk in the case
of emergency.
Last Tuesday, Pelosi sent a letter to President Bush urging him to release a
"small portion" of the nation's 706 million barrels of strategic-reserve oil
to bring down prices. Regardless of how one feels about whether reserves
should be held at all, two big problems stand out with Pelosi's tiny demand.
One, she's proposing a misappropriation of the reserves. The U.S. oil
stockpile is a 58-day cushion for emergencies that today are all possible.
If Israel attacks Iran, for example, and prices double again. Or if Hugo
Chavez cuts off his supplies, as he threatened to do as recently as Sunday.
The reserve is there to cushion the blow of a market disruption; it's not an
open-market mechanism to manipulate prices for political ends.
Two, Pelosi has finally admitted that supply matters, something that
contrasts with her entire legislative record. We count 14 energy actions to
suppress supply on her Web site just since 2005.
She has blocked efforts to open Alaska to drilling, denounced fossil fuels,
blamed oil companies for high gasoline prices, voted for biotech boondoggles
and condemned speculators.
"Our coasts need lasting protection from oil and gas drilling," she declared
Dec. 6, 2006, after Democrats won control of Congress. Missing are any moves
against petrotyrant regimes who drive prices skyward, or even lip service to
the idea of ensuring supply through drilling.
Pelosi downplays her proposal as modest because it's a "small" portion of
the reserves to spend. And look what happened in 2000, she says, when an SPR
release authorized by President Clinton lowered gasoline prices nearly 20%.
But she's not fooling anyone. Then, like now, an election was coming up.
With Congress' public approval at a subterranean 9% and falling, the speaker
must be starting to realize that November may not be the Democratic cakewalk
that pundits predict.
President Bush, however, isn't about to be suckered into releasing the
reserves just long enough for pump prices to fall by Election Day, thereby
saving Democrats' skins so they can carry on their drill-nothingism for an
additional two years.
The president needs to do two things with Pelosi's proposal: First, tell her
"no," unless she comes up with a plan to open up more drilling. Second,
expose it for what it is - a bid to paint Bush as the problem to distract
from her own sorry record.
In playing politics with the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the speaker has
moved beyond the incompetence and irresponsibility that have characterized
her leadership to date.
It borders on reckless, something we cannot tolerate in such dangerous
times.
*********
Always incompetent and irresponsible, and now dangerous...that's Crabs. If
she doesn't quit, she should be impeached for treason.

Yah, leave it the republitards, they'll drill it to the last drop. |
Even if they do, it won't affect the price of gasoline much.
And it would take years before that gas ever get to market.
What's needed is to get out of dependence in just oil.
Diversify our energy. That will do it.
What gets me is: why aren't the oil companies not drilling on
the land they have now? Noooo, they're after that coast line. |

Yep! Them oil speculators are all Republitards, that's why the
Republitard party isn't looking into it. It is the Democrats, such as
Maria Cantwell, who are checking things out. There should be laws

The areas you are suggesting we drill in are really such a small

HEAD: Feckless To Reckless, Pelosi Should Resign
Yah, leave it the republitards, they'll drill it to the last drop.
Even if they do, it won't affect the price of gasoline much.
It won't affect the price of gas much TODAY.
It will have a huge impact on the price of gas in the FUTURE.
And it would take years before that gas ever get to market.
What's needed is to get out of dependence in just oil.
Diversify our energy. That will do it.
Since you oppose drilling because it won't affect the price of gas
TODAY I'm certain you can quickly and easily tell us how "Diversify
our energy" will affect the price of gas TODAY, right?
Sure, if we diversify, in the long run we will not need imported oil.
As for affecting the price Today, the only way it can be done is by
cracking down on speculators. They're the culprit of this price hike.
But this will bring whining from the right.
What gets me is: why aren't the oil companies not drilling on
the land they have now?
They are. But they have local legal opposition almost everywhere
holding them up.
Noooo, they're after that coast line.
Their interest is in getting the cheapest-to-get oil first.- Hide quoted

Yep! Them oil speculators are all Republitards, that's why the
Republitard party isn't looking into it. It is the Democrats, such as
Maria Cantwell, who are checking things out. There should be laws
against speculators.
********
Beetle, Eater of Dung, every time your local food stamp store orders goods
at wholesale prices and marks up the amount to make a profit...that's
speculation. If you don't choose to use your allotment of stamps for an
item, the store owner loses money. That's speculation, too. God, are you
dumb.

You're wrong, Dumbassnysus!
Food prices are based on what the wholesale cost is today. Oil
speculation has nothing to do with what the wholesale cost of oil is
at the moment. Speculation is what the greedy oil people "want" the
price to be in like a year or two. Then they use that inflated price
to jack up the price at the pump today! You can thank big-oil
polititians such as George Dumbya Douche and Shlong Cheney for this
greedy bullshit. |

FROM INVESTORS BUSINESS DAILY
HEAD: Feckless To Reckless, Pelosi Should Resign
Leadership: With oil hitting $147, Nancy Pelosi finally admits energy
is
a
problem. But instead of drilling for it, she's cooked up a new
drain-the-reserves scheme. It's pure politics at a time of crisis. She
ought
to resign.
Any leader with an energy record as derelict as Speaker Pelosi's ought
to
step down. Where she once was just incompetent and irresponsible, she
has
now - with her latest scheme to fix oil prices - become dangerous.
Despite polls showing Americans in favor of drilling more oil from
America's
huge untapped supplies, Pelosi won't allow it. She just wants to empty
our
Strategic Petroleum Reserve for a short-term fix to get through
Election
Day.
It's an irresponsible suggestion, signaling not only an ignorance of
how
the
economy works but also a willingness to place the nation at risk in
the
case
of emergency.
Last Tuesday, Pelosi sent a letter to President Bush urging him to
release
a
"small portion" of the nation's 706 million barrels of
strategic-reserve
oil
to bring down prices. Regardless of how one feels about whether
reserves
should be held at all, two big problems stand out with Pelosi's tiny
demand.
One, she's proposing a misappropriation of the reserves. The U.S. oil
stockpile is a 58-day cushion for emergencies that today are all
possible.
If Israel attacks Iran, for example, and prices double again. Or if
Hugo
Chavez cuts off his supplies, as he threatened to do as recently as
Sunday.
The reserve is there to cushion the blow of a market disruption; it's
not
an
open-market mechanism to manipulate prices for political ends.
Two, Pelosi has finally admitted that supply matters, something that
contrasts with her entire legislative record. We count 14 energy
actions
to
suppress supply on her Web site just since 2005.
She has blocked efforts to open Alaska to drilling, denounced fossil
fuels,
blamed oil companies for high gasoline prices, voted for biotech
boondoggles
and condemned speculators.
"Our coasts need lasting protection from oil and gas drilling," she
declared
Dec. 6, 2006, after Democrats won control of Congress. Missing are any
moves
against petrotyrant regimes who drive prices skyward, or even lip
service
to
the idea of ensuring supply through drilling.
Pelosi downplays her proposal as modest because it's a "small" portion
of
the reserves to spend. And look what happened in 2000, she says, when
an
SPR
release authorized by President Clinton lowered gasoline prices nearly
20%.
But she's not fooling anyone. Then, like now, an election was coming
up.
With Congress' public approval at a subterranean 9% and falling, the
speaker
must be starting to realize that November may not be the Democratic
cakewalk
that pundits predict.
President Bush, however, isn't about to be suckered into releasing the
reserves just long enough for pump prices to fall by Election Day,
thereby
saving Democrats' skins so they can carry on their drill-nothingism
for
an
additional two years.
The president needs to do two things with Pelosi's proposal: First,
tell
her
"no," unless she comes up with a plan to open up more drilling.
Second,
expose it for what it is - a bid to paint Bush as the problem to
distract
from her own sorry record.
In playing politics with the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the speaker
has
moved beyond the incompetence and irresponsibility that have
characterized
her leadership to date.
It borders on reckless, something we cannot tolerate in such dangerous
times.
*********
Always incompetent and irresponsible, and now dangerous...that's
Crabs.
If
she doesn't quit, she should be impeached for treason.

*******
Ah, 9Titties, you obviously know nothing about geology, the oil industry,
logic or reason, but know everything about braying your ignorance to the
world.
Dionysus
Funny, Dennis, you're talking about ignorance, if you're an educated boy
you'd know that the oil companies are seating on a large area that they
leased
but they're not doing a thing about it because they want that COASTLINE.
This is what you get when you put oil people in control of government.
******* |
Sweet Jay-sus (as my sainted Irish grandmother would say), 9Titties...you
are way beyond ignorant, and far into terminal stupidity. The lands where
oil companies now have leases are not producing enough oil to be profitable,
and will be returned to the Gov't. We know there are vast oil deposits on
the coastlines and deep continental shelf...why are you ostrich-headed
opposed to our becoming oil independent? And, if "oil people [are] in
control of government" why isn't there already development in the areas
where there's oil? Terminally stupid? Yep, you just keep tripping over your
floor level IQ.

Oh, Dennis, you're one of those creeps that don't understand anything |
unless it's repeated for you. Drilling for oil in our coast line is not
going to
do anything for the price of gas, it will take years before it would get to
the market, and in the long run, it will not solve our energy problem.
The solution, dummy, is diversification. The time we spend to drill we
should have a crash program instead to get alternative fuels along with oil.
We
should not concentrate on drilling for oil to get us out of this mess.
I know you only understand the oil corporations side of it. They have been
after the coast line for years, the majority of the people have been against
it.
Now with propaganda and the price of gasoline, they think they can succeed.
Did I answer your question? It DOES NOT MEAN LOWER PRICES. |
