Op-ed: We need to drill
The Washington Times had a great column in yesterday’s paper. It gives a good, accurate analysis of the energy predicament the Democrats have placed our country in.
For years, we’ve approached domestic drilling in a politically correct manner, placing caribou on a pedestal while ignoring American consumers and national security.
It notes that:
It is estimated that beneath America’s coast lies enough oil to fuel 60 million cars in the United States for 60 years — and enough natural gas to heat 60 million homes for 160 years.
We need to use our own resources…gas in Louisville is now over $4, and there’s no end in sight.

Ann,
I voted for you in this primary and congratulations on your most excellent win.
1: Are you going to stand up for CONSERVATIVE principles in the House? I need to know for sure.
There are too many rino’s in the Republican Party who are currently serving in the House and Senate.
2: I WANT DOMESTIC OIL AND I WANT IT NOW!!
See WorldNetkDaily May 21, 2008: 31,00 scientists reject gloam warming agenda and also click the link on the petition projectin the same article Edward Teller, Ph.D. wrote the cover letter. This is a big deal.

I’m sick and tired of doing research for my own benefit and knowledge and politicians and newscasters are constantly making ad hominem statements about the climate and causes of the oil price hikes and showing me no proof. I’m so sick that some days I want to throw up. Really.
3: The House and Senate want the Dept of Justice to sue OPEC? LOL
4: Nancy Pelosi and other Dems want to take oil company profits and take away their tax breaks. That’s going to help me at the pump how??????
5: War On Terror. We are winning in Iraq. Do not fall for another Walter Cronkite Tet Offensive we have lost the war comments from anybody when in fact we are winning. Cronkite LIED to the American people, thus causing my generation to be blamed for losing the Viet Nam War. We were within 14 days of seeing a white flag from the North Vietnamese. That’s a fact. Look it up.
Feel free to contact me.

What should be a simple decision for our “Representatives” has turned into a political football that everyone wants to pass. We need individuals like Anne back in Congress to protect the middle-class American’s pocketbook and stand up for our best interests in Washington.
