If I'm not mistaken, the last Energy Policy Act was in 2005. In that year the Republicans still controlled both Houses and Bush and Cheney's secret energy policy group was still in control. "The 2006 US House election was held on November 7, 2006 to elect members to the United States House of Representatives. All of the 435 seats in the House were up for election. Those elected are serving in the 110th United States Congress from January 3, 2007 until January 3, 2009. The incumbent majority party, the Republican Party had controlled the house since the 1994 election and was defeated by the Democrats who won a majority in the House ending 12 years in opposition." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_Policy_Act_of_2005 Yep, the facts will set you free. I noticed that you didn't ask about the deficit or federal debt during the during the Clinton years. Why not? Op ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** Here's what the Democrats are doing about high gas prices.... This is too funny. You post a FAUXNEWS report, in its entirety, when you could have simply posted a link. What were you ashamed to give credit to the actual source? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,386643,00.html Let me guess, McBush is calling for another gimmick to try and draw support from illiterate lemmings like yourself? Op Are you saying the report is false? Why would you ask that? I never stated or implied such. Because you attacked the source and attacked me for posting it ("Let me guess, McBush", "illiterate lemmings like yourself"... etc.). So you are implying that the there must be some kind of credibility problem with the source. Attacking the sources credibility is far from saying the report is/was false. And yes I am saying that there is an enormous credibility problem with FAUXNEWS--the same as I would much of what is presented by Keith Olbermann on MSNBC, or by Bill O' Reilly. I good entertainment to many, but short on hard new info. And yet you still fail to answer the question: Are you saying the report is false? Or are you trying to deflect from the disaster the Dems are proposing? Are you saying that the report is false? Or are you trying to deflect from the disaster the Dems are proposing? Or are you trying to deflect from the disaster the Dems are proposing? The Dems could hardly **** things up any worse than the previously Republican controlled House, Senate and the Bush Admin. but I'm sure they will give it a yeomans effort! Let's assume that the Memorial Day to Labor Day tax freeze had passed. The federal tax rate on gas is 18.4 cents per gallon. I'm gonna be generous and assume that you would fill-up with 30 gallons of gas 15 times from May 26th thru Sept. 1. You would recognize a total of $82.80 over 3 months. Or $5.52 each fill-up. If that $82.80 is gonna break you, I suspect that you need a grreat deal more than a tax break to mend your financial woes. I further suggest that you likely make considerably more than I do--I am a state employee--electrician and I don't make squat. Putting additional taxes on gasoline attacks the poor, not those who can easily pay for it. Its a TERRIBLE idea. And increasing any taxes during an economic downturn is not the way to turn the economy around. Its the best way to drive it into collapse. I say those that voted for such a complete idiot, got what they deserve from him and all associated with him. And yet, the best the Dems could not defeat him with their best candidates. That doesn't say much for their choice of candidates. It doesn't say much for their pool of talent. The "*******s" (your description) could do worse and plan to do so. I doubt it but we will see when Obama take office. "When"? That's hardly a done deal. And with his position in favor of moving troops from Iraq to Afgan, he's losing support from the anti-war groups he used to have on his side. That very seriously hurt his credibility. But both Obama and McCain are terrible candidates. The question is which one will do the least damage. Raising taxes in the middle of a slowdown is the best way to kill what is left of the economy. I guess it depends on which taxes and how much of an increase. Only time will tell. No! ANY increase in taxes or new taxes will hurt the economy. Period. We can't take money out of the hands of those who would pull the economy out of this slowdown. Op |

"A DAY IN THE LIFE OF JOE REPUBLICAN"
Joe gets up at 6 a.m. and fills his coffeepot with water to prepare his morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards. With his first swallow of water, he takes his daily medication. His medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to ensure their safety and that they work as advertised. All but $10 of his medications are paid for by his employer's medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance - now Joe gets it too. He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. Joe's bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry. In the morning shower, Joe reaches for his shampoo. His bottle is properly labeled with each ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how much it contained. Joe dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some environmentalist wacko liberal fought for the laws to stop industries from polluting our air. He walks on the government-provided sidewalk to subway station for his government-subsidized ride to work. It saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor. Joe begins his work day. He has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. Joe's employer pays these standards because Joe's employer doesn't want his employees to call the union. If Joe is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, he'll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal didn't think he should lose his home because of his temporary misfortune. It is noontime and Joe needs to make a bank deposit so he can pay some bills. Joe's deposit is federally insured by the FSLIC because some godless liberal wanted to protect Joe's money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the Great Depression. Joe has to pay his Fannie Mae-underwritten mortgage and his below-market federal student loan because some elitist liberal decided that Joe and the government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money over his lifetime. Joe also forgets that his in addition to his federally subsidized student loans, he attended a state funded university. Joe is home from work. He plans to visit his father this evening at his farm home in the country. He gets in his car for the drive. His car is among the safest in the world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safety standards to go along with the tax-payer funded roads. He arrives at his boyhood home. His was the third generation to live in the house financed by Farmers' Home Administration because bankers didn't want to make rural loans. The house didn't have electricity until some big-government liberal stuck his nose where it didn't belong and demanded rural electrification. He is happy to see his father, who is now retired. His father lives on Social Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Joe wouldn't have to. Joe gets back in his car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show. The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good. He doesn't mention that the beloved Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Joe enjoys throughout his day. Joe agrees: "We don't need those big-government liberals ruining our lives! After all, I'm a self-made man who believes everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have." |

The dems have done a lot: Get a president in office who will get us out of Iraq which will decrease the strife in the region, decreasing oil prices. Guess what will happen if your retarded-rode-to-school-on-the-small-bus President nukes Iran? Gas will dramatically increase. Yeah, that's going to happen. LOL!!! Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran. Ring a bell? Democrats should be chastised greatly for not doing the obvious, which republicans would agree with: mainly decreasing the amount of blends from the 30 or so down to say 2. Or even only one, take the most stringent one and have everyone use. What would the Dems do? How about raise taxes on gasoline just when the country is looking for relief. Yeah, that's what we need!! MORE TAXES!!! If congress passes this, the Dems don't have a chance in November: That is why it wont happen. Reduce the amount of blends to a single blend, the most stringent, or 2 or 3. Possibly make a law to regulate to reform big oil from strategically taking refineries off line ON PURPOSE to decrease supply and increase demand, which big oil documents have shown them to do. |

Stays steady then drops during Clinton. Shows what a ignorant fool Peaceful Bill is. Anybody can reduce a deficit by raising taxes. Congress creates new programs, funds them with higher taxes. New administration comes in and can't get the programs killed. But to help provide a little relief to those who actually EARN the money, they reduce taxes. Hopefully this relief stimulates the economy to help offset the reduction in taxes. But instead of controlling or trying to reduce spending, congress increases spending and increases the deficit. The idea is to let the people who actually make the money to KEEP what they earn. Its not for income redistribution through higher taxes. |
