My Head…..is EXPLODING…..
Over THIS:
”Republicans in the U.S. Senate on Wednesday failed to muster enough votes to keep a measure to allow oil drilling in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in a $453 billion defense spending bill.
The House of Representatives earlier this week passed the defense budget bill with the oil drilling provision.
However, with the Senate unable to end the filibuster by Democrats and a few moderate Republicans, the provision to give oil companies access to the refuge could be dropped.”
MMMMRRRRRAAARRRGGH!
Oh. My. GOD! What is wrong with this? Is this not our F-ING OIL? is this not part of the %^$&* DEFENSE BILL? I mean, what are the Democrats doing? and those WORTHLESS RINO’s that are helping them F-UP THE WHOLE DEAL?
Isn’t it clear that the drilling there will EASE OUR F-ING DEPENDANCE ON FOREIGN OIL? Isn’t it clear that this is not just an environmental concern (a minimal one that that, mind you), but a F-ING STRATEGIC CONCERN AS WELL?
The vote was 56 for ending the fillibuster, and they needed 60. Here are the RINO’s that voted against:
Chafee (R-RI), DeWine (R-OH)
Frist voted against it because he needed to...a procedural vote that allows him to call for the vote again. The Democrats that voted for cloture are Akaka (D-HI), Landrieu (D-LA), Nelson (D-NE), and Inouye (D-HI).
Why is a F-ING senator from OHIO voting against drilling for oil in A-FARGING-LASKA? Just to piss me off, that’s why!
So....we have Polipundit with the score and Michelle Malkin with her exacting commentary and pointed “Sighs”
I need a drink. I need Alaskan Crude more, but I’ll live with a drink.
