Because That Make Sense

Help me out here.

We can't drill in Alaska, hundreds of miles from where anyone lives, because Democrats say we shouldn't.

We aren't drilling in the Gulf because Democrats say we shouldn't.

Too dangerous, they say. Global warming, they say.

Fine.

But now that gas prices are topping $4/gallon in parts of the country, guess what Democrats want to do? Fine oil companies for not drilling for oil.


Sens. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and Bill Nelson (D-Fla.) along with Charles Schumer (N.Y.), chairman of the Democratic Policy Committee, touted a bill that would fine companies $4 for every acre of leased public land or water they have yet to drill.

Makes sense, I guess, since Obama's America is increasingly becoming Bizzaro World.
