Democrats protect OPEC oil industry
Recently, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sent the House to adjournment for a monthlong vacation.
However, Republicans are meeting in an effort to bring political pressure and the knowledge of another failed Democratic policy to the voting public.
Speaker Pelosi immediately went on a book-signing tour without voting on key energy legislation that could give Americans relief from the high cost of fuel.
The Democrats have a long history of attacking the American energy sector and because of that, Americans have paid and will pay for this failure.
It is the Democratic policies that deny the opening of oil fields on American soil and off shore.
Washington's leftist policies have been a complete failure. Democratic legislation has raised oil and food prices, denied Americans high-paying long-term jobs and failed to increase supply.
With Democratic leaders, Sen. Barack Obama and House leader Pelosi, the Democrats are in total disarray on the energy issue.
The Democrats historically have fought energy independence at every turn and every opportunity causing today's energy crisis across our nation.
The Democrats have attacked the coal, natural gas, oil and refining industries making it more difficult to do business and raising prices for Americans.
The Democratic energy policies have taken America to total dependence on imported OPEC oil.
The time has come for America to stand up to the economy-killing Democratic regulations and stop the forced funding of terror states that are members of OPEC.
Whenever the Democrats speak of "evil Big Oil," know that every Middle Eastern terror-sponsoring state knows that Americans have fallen for the foolishness of Democratic leadership.
The OPEC nations oil companies make profits that make Exxon-Mobil's look microscopic.
