With the help of the Democratic Congress, that’s true. We’ve got oil, off the coast and in Alaska, and in shale and tar sands that are exploitable at far less than current prices. We can’t develop them. The cure is to get rid of the Democrats in Congress.

Yesterday’s announcement of a record deficit ought to be sobering. We cannot afford these clowns anymore. I’d bet anyone campaigning on a 10% reduction in Federal spending and opening up domestic energy production would win in a landslide. Their opponent might carry Maryland and Virginia.
