The country is in the throes of a severe energy shortage. The average American is paying through the nose for gasoline. There is a simple solution to this problem but it is being used as a political football.
Even a simple minded dolt knows that the answer is to increase supplies of oil. Republicans have put forward proposals for offshore drilling and time after time the Democrats have voted them down. They say we can't drill our way out of the problem. They are lying swine. They won't even let us try. Americans can do it. But they won't even let us try.
There are other sources of energy such as oil shale and oil-from-coal but they won't even let us try.
America's problems can be solved with some strong leadership (sadly lacking in recent years) and American know-how.
The politicians aren't listening to us. The only way to get their attention is at the ballot box. If a large number of incumbents are defeated this November it will send the message that they better start listening or they'll be out of their cushy jobs.
I don't care what party they are from DON'T VOTE FOR INCUMBENTS!!!
Unfortunately, I don't think many voters will heed this suggestion. The American sheeple will march to the polls and send the same political hacks back to Washington.
This makes me FURIOUS !!!!!!
