Dril, Drill, Drill some more!

Yesterday Pres. Bush outlined his plan to lift the ban on new oil drilling. About Time! Sen. McCain has said he is in favor of this also. Since the policies of Jimmy Carter we have seen oil and consequently gas prices soar. We have seen the supply or oil limited because we cannot go after oil on our own soil or off our own coasts. We continue to restrict ourselves by dissallowing new refineries to top it off. I hope the American people will see through the hype and yell with a loud voice to allow more drilling, more refineries and less goverment control and interferance in the oil and gas industry. Typical of the Liberally left, thier response to Pres. Bush's plan was to say that drilling for oil 'may' help down the road(and they stress 'down' the road) but will do nothing to ease the burden of high gas prices now. I have heard however that with exisiting riggs, and known sites, we could have oil out of the ground and on the market in as little as 30 to 90 days. Drill already! People, call your congressmen, the web link to the left will give you the #'s you need. Call your local reps and demand that they allow the ban to be lifted. GET GOVERNMENT OUT OF OUR LIVES. Our government is supposed to exist to protect our rights that exist without them and not to grant us rights they wish us to have. We the people need to take control of OUR government and demand they act in OUR interests and not do what the select few (insert - enviromental extremists, liberal nazis, communists, socialists, fascists) would have done to this country.

There are many of us(AMERICANS) who are fed up with one or many of the taxes and/or controls the Federal govt. has laid upon our shoulders. We need to stop taking punches and act. WE the people keep giving more and more of the govt control to the extremists and crack-pots because we are busy making a living, raising our families, etc. But we are goint to leave our children with a bigger mess than any of our founding fathers had to deal with. This country which I love deeply is on the verge of spinning so far left it will take a another revolution to put everything right. There is a reason our Founders who framed our constitution gave us the checks and balance they did. No one wanted to creat anything so powerful that it could take away our individula God given rights. Yes I said God! God does exist and was a big factor in the founding of this country. Our rights are given to us by Him and the founders recognized this and created a govt to protect these God given rights.

In short, we have the right to drill anywhere we want. The oil companies here have the technology to do it effeciently and with the least possible environmental impacts. If demand is there, supply needs to increase. It really is that simple. The colonies broke ties with Britain for way less than this.

Hear, Hear! Why do we continually cut off our noses to spite our face? Just announcing to the world that we are going to start drilling will bring prices down. Let's stop sending our money to maniacs and despots that hate us and want to kill us.

Yes! What a novelty -- a simple and reasonable solution. We have become good at reacting and bad at prioritizing!

Do I have your attention? Senator Obama thinks that we as Americans have a responsibility to teach our children Spanish . Now, is that a bad thing? Lets analyze it shall we. What his comment was is as follows. He was commenting on an English Only bill proposal. He stated, and I summarize, "English only?!? Immigrants will learn English eventually. Why do we want to exclude people? When Europeans come to America they speak German, French(who cares) and English. And when Americans go to Europe we can only say"-insert his two word french statement I think- "It is embarrassing .!" So what I want to know is, who the flip cares? I do think it is great when others speak many languages. Our founding fathers spoke many languages. Many self taught themselves Latin , french and the like as well as learning English . What is the difference. Well for one it is our educational system. Our government took it over, without a constitutional right to do so by the wa...

Are there any Sons of Liberty left?

Samuel Adams was among the first to consider himself a Son of Liberty. These were early Americans who were gathering and expressing themselves in town meetings and in Taverns, protesting the treatment they were receiving at the hands of the Crown. The Americans were experiencing ill treatment from their Governors and other appointed leaders. Not everyone was a patriot. There were many Tories, or those loyal to England and the Crown. And then, like now, there were many who sat on the fence. These were people who did not like the way things were but did not want to 'rock the boat'. Enter patriots who started organizing across New England and into the surrounding colonies. They became the voice of the silent majority who would be silent no longer. Samuel Adams was the first, but many early patriot leaders followed his lead. Joseph Warren became an outspoken leader as well as Patrick Henry, John Hancock and Paul Revere. These men as well as many others were the leaders who organize...

It was a quiet morning that September 11, 2001. I for one did not wake up thinking that this day would mark a terrorist attack the likes of which have never been seen before. First one plane hit one of the twin towers. This was big, but it could of been an accident. It had to be an accident, right? We wanted it to be an accident. A terrible accident. But then the second plane hit the second tower. This was no accident. This was WAR! The very people who had declared war on us many years earlier. Osama Bin Laden had been behind the USS Cole bombing. We did nothing. Terrorists were responsible for kidnappings, beheadings, and US Embassy building suicide bombings. We did nothing. Under the watchful eye of Bill Clinton, we refused to go after this radical but bold and fearless group of terrorists. We were even offered Bin Laden once. But Bill said he was too much of an 'hot potato' and refused him. And Bill Clinton knew who he was and what he was a part of. As the twin towers co...
