Stabenow can't even play buy the DNC rules, where was she when it came time to count the votes of the people of Michigan for the Democratic delegates. Clean your own closet out first Mrs Stabenow! Funny how her husband was caught with a prostitute but NOBODY here on Libscape has made one negative comment about it.

Please keep in mind that this story is about Democrats criticizing Bush's--and McCain's--POLICIES. Things they actually DO while in office that affect YOU.
The person speaking isn't running for president and neither is her husband or his hooker.

ok lets not drill and do the bio fuel thing that Al Gore cast the deciding vote on in 1994 that is now starving allot of people ! Maybe starving people is the more moral thing, I guess that is the way you think if you are a democrat !

Stoners: What's your problem with more drilling? We know where the oil is and we're the best, most efficient drillers in the world.
Why not tap more domestic oil rather than use our fertile farm land to grow fuel? We're not ready for non-food ethanol yet.
Regarding SUV's: If you were a young mother who had to strap your babies in the back seat several times a week, you would want a vehicle high enough so that you didn't have to lean over to do it.

An excerpt from a different story ...
Key to winning support in the Senate was a provision that gives four Gulf Coast states -- Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama -- 37.5 percent of the royalties collected from oil and gas production on federal leases off their shores.
Gulf Coast lawmakers had sought the money for coastal restoration projects to repair damage from storms like Hurricane Katrina.
According to congressional estimates, that provision could redistribute about $60 billion in federal leasing fees to states over the next 25 years. After taxes, drilling royalties are the government's second-biggest revenue source.
Natural gas users, from farmers to manufacturers, have backed the drilling bill because they hope the extra supplies will mean lower energy bills.

"After taxes, drilling royalties are the government's second-biggest revenue source".
How can that be when the evil oil companies and their representatives in Government are screwing us so badly?
Why not demand the government target new revenues above a certain point from oil royalties to assist with some program such as Medicare or universal healthcare?

You know guys. Bush did not and never had any policy when he stole the elections in 2004 thanks Jeb & Katherine.
His only mission was to invade and take over its oil wealth and stuff up the oil companies. It went bad but he still stands by his plan.

Let's define Bush. He's from a wealthy family that built it's wealth from war profiteering. It didn't matter who they helped or helped them so long as they accumulated wealth and power. There is little care for who dies in Iraq, innocent mothers or fathers, children. It didn't matter who suffered under hurrican Katrina. It didn't matter if people were tortured or dignity was taken from them. It didn't matter about removing Habeaus Corpus or violating our Constitution. There is little care to find Bin Laden in the end.
The rich know exactly his motives; that's why they support him. The average blue collar worker who voted for him was simply too stupid to figure things out.
The interesting fact of history is this: you can't take the wealth with you when you die. The Pharoahs of Egypt tried deperately to take things they accumulated with them. It never works.
