Gas prices, and who not to vote for

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday shut the door on expanding oil and gas drilling beyond areas that have already been approved for energy exploration, drawing a clear distinction from her counterparts in charge of the Senate.

“This call for drilling in areas that are protected is a hoax, it’s an absolute hoax on the part of the Republicans and this administration” Pelosi said at her weekly press conference. “It’s a decoy to punt your attention away from the fact that their policies have produced $4-a-gallon gasoline.”

She thinks we’re stupid.  Given the policy outlined in the first paragraph, who is preventing increased oil extraction?  Who is opposed to reducing our dependence on foreign oil imports?  Who’s playing politics instead of making the country more powerful and more secure?  The answer is ALWAYS Democrats.
