Meanwhile, Obama's now up in Florida in a poll taken the day before McCain and Little Charlie Crist sold out the whole state to the oil companies (and completely flipped their positions in the process). They're getting blasted in the local news. Offshore drilling is a big no-no in Florida. Even El Cubano Fascisto, Mel Martinez, wouldn't go there. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
When the capital development of a country becomes a by-product of the activities of a casino, the job is likely to be ill-done. — John M. Keynes
What is certain in energy policy is that we have learned a few clear lessons along the way. Somehow all of them seem to have escaped my opponent. He says that high oil prices are not the problem, but only that they rose too quickly. He's doesn't support new domestic production. He doesn't support new nuclear plants. He doesn't support more traditional use of coal, either.
So presumably McCain supports both of these. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
So presumably McCain supports both of these this week.
Fixed.
Shrug. Let him buddy-up with Junior over this. It's a freebie. Even the national press is getting in on it now. The flip-flopping is just too blatant at this point. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
President Bush Presses Congress To Lift Offshore Drilling Ban WASHINGTON -- President Bush asked Congress to lift bans on offshore oil drilling in a statement Wednesday morning, the White House said. Mr. Bush's request for more domestic energy production is not new, but the call takes on renewed urgency as consumers struggle with soaring gasoline prices. "There is no excuse for delay," the president said in a statement in the Rose Garden. With the presidential election on the horizon, Mr. Bush blamed Democratic lawmakers for opposing his energy policies and for high gasoline costs. "Families across the country are looking to Washington for a response," Mr. Bush said.

Dickleshit may have just tossed Florida away?
Cool. A doo run-run-run, a doo run-run
Once again, the electorate, for whatever reason, doesn't seem to be stupid this year. Hope it continues. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
To say nothing of Charlie Crist, who just pissed away the good will he'd been saving with Dems and Indies in the state. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
I mean, Canada isn't exactly a bitter enemy of the US or anything, but it's still not OUR oil, nor OUR land to regulate.
Speaking as an American, about an American produced piece of ridiculous propaganda.
Wikipedia: Northwest Passage
In late 2005, it was alleged that U.S. nuclear submarines had travelled unannounced through Canadian Arctic waters, sparking outrage in Canada. In his first news conference after the federal election, Prime Minister-designate Stephen Harper contested an earlier statement made by the U.S. ambassador that Arctic waters were international, stating the Canadian government's intention to enforce its sovereignty there. The allegations arose after the U.S. Navy released photographs of the USS Charlotte surfaced at the North Pole.[30][31]
McCain Cribs is just strange. Why is there a plan drawing of a meeting room, and why is half of McCain's wife's head perched on his shoulder?
At least there's no golfing gear. But you can buy this:
- A genuine GOP pink elephant.
A genuine GOP pink elephant.
You really can't make this shit up anymore.
Anyway, on McCain Cribs, is this what Grandpa Simpson's blowing his money on? The RNC's got quite a flashy website that seems to accomplish, you know, nothing. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Third parties are normally not included in national polls, at least in this race, but the polls always include the option of "Someone Else," which would capture it. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
and why is half of McCain's wife's head perched on his shoulder?
One word: Percocet. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
"Democrats are not going to be lectured to on security by the mayor who failed to learn the lessons of the 1993 attacks, refused to prepare his own city's first responders for the next attack, urged President Bush to put his corrupt crony in charge of our homeland security, and was too busy lobbying for his foreign clients to join the Iraq Study Group."
Finally, finally, finally, somebody fucking said it. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
