Senate turns back sweeping oil-drilling amendment
The Senate on Tuesday blocked an amendment to pending transportation legislation that would have mandated a huge expansion of offshore oil-and-gas leasing, opened the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling and approved construction of the Keystone XL oil sands pipeline.
Sen. Pat Roberts’s (R-Kan.) amendment, which failed 41-57, would have also extended several energy efficiency and renewable fuels tax incentives and extend a pay freeze for federal workers, among other provisions.

Don’t get too excited; remember, both Palosi and Reid were reelected. In Massachuettes, we elected Scott Brown, he turned out to be just another RINO. It seems as though we will have Romney as the GOP’s choice, another RINO, I know because he was our Govenor.
Your choice, but choice is not limited to just one of the above.
First of all let us look at what America has been for 236 years. She gained her independence from Great Britain as a new nation, under God, with liberty and justice for all. Guaranteed certain inalienable rights, particularly freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the right to own and bear arms to protect herself from tyranny, etc.
She became the richest, strongest nation on earth despite being only 5% of the World’s population.
She became the world’s go-to protector. She saved Great Britain, France, South Korea, and other nations from evil forces within Germany, Japan and Russia.
Now America’s very existence is being threatened by evil again. Those forces are the envious, jealous elites of Europe who are tired of a bunch of refugees from Europe existing as the world singular super power. These evil elites know that Communism doesn’t work. They know that Communism wrecked the economies of Russia, China, North Korea and Cuba nearly starving the people, so they now wish to employ it to devastate America.
They also know that human nature causes people to accept handouts, become lazy and dependent. These evil elites are simply using Socialism/Communism as a way to take down America from within. Once the middle/working class is broken and dependent the evil elites then become the dictators and the masses are enslaved as welfare recipients.
America must vote those evil forces out of our government before they become total dictators. We must stick to the free enterprise system that made America strong and fed and cared for us for 236 years. We must maintain America as a free democratic republic.
And that says it all. Good post Amazingoly.
They want you to share you earnings because they like their parents couch and Obama’s free packages of coolaid handouts. Liberalism is a mental disease, the cure is voting Obama and his administration of Czars out of office.
Would America be better off without ANY TAXES AT ALL from any Microsoft employee?
Before you know it, we will be paying $9.99 for a gallon of gasoline.
