Put The Pressure On The Sellouts: Democrats pass hoax drilling bill

By: Pam On: Sep/16/08 - 1 Comment

This is not a joke!  Take Action!

Democratic leaders called it a step toward energy independence, but Republicans labeled it a “sham” because most of the estimated 18 billion barrels of oil believed to lie below off-limits coastal waters are within 50 miles of land and will remain out of bounds.

The measure passed in a largely party-line vote of 236-189. It now goes to the Senate, where energy will be the topic later in the week. Thirteen Democrats bucked their leadership and voted against the measure.

    With this sham/hoax/fraud bill, the Democrites once again show that they are masters of misrepresentation, of lying.

    The Party of Lies is working to serve their Master, the Prince of Lies.
