Democrats think you're stupid

Nancy Pelosi: "Hey, let's do a fake energy bill that won't actually result in new energy production":
While lifting a 25-year federal ban on most offshore oil and natural gas drilling, the legislation would block Virginia and other coastal states from sharing in a $2.6 trillion bonanza of tax revenue expected to flow from offshore fields. . . .
Unless states stand to profit from offshore development, they almost surely would exercise their right under the bill to block any drilling within 100 miles of their shores, critics of the House initiative charged.
"With no financial incentive, no state will choose to 'opt in,' " House Republican leader John A. Boehner of Ohio told reporters, "and this bill will result in little or no new American energy production."
This kind of underestimation of the electorate reminds me very much of the Rostenkowski-Wright Congress of 1993-94 -- or the DeLay-Hastert Congress of 2005-06. Just engage in a lot of symbolic gestures and figure voters are too stupid to know they're being played. Good luck with that, Democrats.

  1. SARAH PALIN IS A 'PHONY MOM & POLITICIAN!'. Simply because...SHE DIDN'T EVEN 'BLINK OR CARE' she is leaving a 'special needs' child behind, with a pregnant teenager to take care of it, and her other two daughters to fend for themselves when daddy is on the trail too! DID SHE EVEN DISCUSS THE OFFER WITH HER HUSBAND? so much for her 'christian belief', the bible says the husband is the HEAD of the family! goes to show it's all about HER!

    it happens every day in allot of homes, with moms who have to juggle between family and an 8 hour shift, but there's one difference..their not running for office! she is a poor example of a mother! whatever happened to 'sterilization', birth control pills, or family planning? 44 and unprotected sex?? really irresponsible!

    secondly, she has no experience or has any idea what the job demands, is contrary to john Mc Cain on 'many issues', and is lying, repeating her lies NON-STOP!
    I also hate the fact she doesn't give SQUAT about the environment! Especially her comments during her convention speech! quote referring to Obama; what exactly is our opponent's plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish, after he's done turning back the waters and healing the planet? she isn't even aware ALASKA'S ice cap IS MELTING ALL AROUND HER! and what's wrong with HEALING THE PLANET anyway? we're doing a lousy job of protecting don't we! All she really cares about is lying, defaming others, hunting, and being in the 'spotlight'.
    I'm a Hillary supporter who accepts Joe Biden, and i see clearly how 'phony she is'.

    Look at her POOR record of protecting wildlife! LET THE GUNS BLAZE! DECLARE OPEN SEASON ON THE POLAR BEARS, MOOSE, CARIBOU, AND WOLVES! WHAT'S NEXT!? SHOOTING SOMEONE IN THE FOOT? LIKE DICK CHANEY? DON'T TRUST HER AMERICA! I DON'T FOR-SURE!!

  3. Maybe Pelosi is a Rovian plant, and the 2006 election cycle was just a hint of Democratic Winter necessary to usher in a Republican Spring.

  4. This is pretty much what I, and probably everybody else expected. The Democrats offer up an energy bill with a poison pill they know Republicans can't support, then blame Republican intransigence for failure to pass "meaningful energy legislation." They intend to stall and muddy the waters until His Oneness fulfills the prophecy of His Arrival as predicted by the holy ones of the MSM.

    It's a risky strategy, and has every likelihood of backfiring.

    The Republicans have proven very adept at exposing the political posturing of the other side. I think they'll get the word out to the American people, at least to those who can't figure it out themselves, and improve their congressional prospects even further.

    Dare we hope for a majority in either the House, Senate, or both?
    The Democrat's behavior is making that possibility all the more likely.
