According to the political newspaper The Hill: “Rising prices have impacted the way likely voters view our current energy policy,” if you can call it a policy. By a 66 to 25 margin, likely voters say Pharaoh Obama should encourage more offshore oil and gas exploration. Half say they favor releasing oil from the Strategic Reserve.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, just over half the likely voters also say neither Democrats nor Republicans should be blamed for the high gasoline prices. Republicans are blamed by 22 percent; only 19 percent blame Democrats. Makes you wonder exactly who these guys polled. Just 42 percent say go ahead and drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska; 46 percent are opposed to that, and they\u2019re idiots.<\/p>\n
The last time gasoline prices were this high — during the Obama presidential campaign — Democrats suddenly professed to see the light, and pretended to loosen restrictions on drilling. Once in office, Pharaoh Obama (praise be his name) and his double-talking Democrats backpedaled. Then came the BP Gulf Oil spill; the rest, as they say, was history.<\/p>\n
American oil in Alaska, off the coast of California, Florida, and elsewhere is off limits. Obama even ignored a federal court ruling to stop oil production after the BP incident. There\u2019s only one party to blame for high gas prices — and for America\u2019s continued energy dependency. They\u2019re beholden to environmentalist wacko-fringe kook nuts, who hate oil – and every other source of energy that could be cheap, and plentiful. And they are the Democrats.<\/p>\n
