Why is the current congress stonewalling legislation to allow more domestic oil production?

Nancy Pelosi won't let legislation come up for a vote that would allow us to produce more oil and help lower the price of gasoline. Why won't she and the democrats let it come up for a vote?|||because the current congress wants to blame the lack of action on a republican president and not having enough of a majority ..





if they fix this now.. then in November the voting public wont' be riled up.|||Because they think environmental issues are more important.....that's all it comes down to.





The question is how many people agree?|||Because they can't tax it|||The Democrats need economic chaos to terrorize their loyal constituencies into submission.|||Because she is an idiot, with India and China consuming more and more, it has been and will continue to be a supply and demand issue, and the price being set by OPEC. The problem is that most people do not understand supply and demand economics and what the structure is of the cost of gas per gallon. Do you know that we are using more oil now than EVER before! People are driving at an alarming rate. Do you realize how much petroleum鈥檚 used in making plastics and then how many things we use are made of plastics? The oil company makes about 12 cents a gallon as profit. The rest is made up of Federal and State taxes, the cost of exploration and the cost of production, Refining and then the cost of the additives that we have to put in the gas (we call it designer gas, thanks to the environmentalist wacko's). Do you know that we have not built a refinery in almost 60 years? (thanks again environmentalist). The refineries that we have are working at capacity and that is not enough to keep up with demand. Do you know that we hardly get any oil from the Middle East? Yes we are not in Iraq for oil, they have enough to export but not as much as you think. Even iran imports most of their oil. Most people think that is where it all comes from. Not true. We get our oil form Canada, Mexico, Venezuela and Africa, in that order. What we get from Saudi is a very small %. You want the cost of gas to drop....STOP driving or at the very least cut back 10% and you'll see gas prices drop. In addition to that we need to open up the ANWR for drilling and off our coasts and the Gulf, as well as exploit the new found pools in the Wyoming Range (thanks again environmentalist) OR come up with an alternate fuel. Even if you had a viable economic alternative fuel source, the production and the distribution of it is decades away. Wake up people, cut back!|||1. 81% of Americans want to do it. Regardless of party affiliation.





2. Because it will lower the cost of gas.





3. Because it would help the popor and middle class.





4. Because the Daemoncrats don't give a darn about people, only power.

http://www.americansolutions.com/|||The first and only reason is---Lobbyist|||Because the 2 parties care more about battling each other than doing what is right for America . And this applies to all issues not just energy .|||Because the environMENTALists (emphasis on "mental") are a very strong lobby. The modern environmentalist movement is a front for Socialists. Pure and simple. No one seems to mind that other countries drill for oil, it is only American cannot do it without destroying the environment.





*|||Nancy Pelosi is a treehugger from northern california, who opposses oil exploration and developement ANYWHERE in the USA. Remember she comes from the most liberal, treehugging area of the US, Northern California.





They are using the high price of gasoline as a lever to oust the republicans......|||We can thank the liberal tree huggers for this... They would rather have $8.00 a gallon gas prices and use the big bad oil companies as their scape goat rather than inconvenience a few birds in wild life by drilling here at home. Our PC generation will be the laughing stock of future generations when they look back on all the Bullsh*t we buy into. The media will also be reviewed as how not to report in years to come as well.|||it should be obvious that the dems are hurting us by preventing all the oppurtunities we have right here in our own fjcking country!! everything is so expensive now, 5 $$ for a lousy bag of chips?? WTFs up with that? people should be really pissed off at congress dems and reps!! drill here drill now save $$ !!!! is that too hard to get? call your congress and other officals we all should bug the hell out of them until they do somthing!! the dem run congress even has a lower approval rating than Bush!! that should tell you somthing for cryin out loud!|||This one is easy. They are doing that, at the expense of the American taxpayer and citizen, to aid the Democratic nominee in his bid for the presidency. So long as they can keep things in an upheaval, they can keep blaming the current administration for everything. In 2005. with passage of a bill to allow drilling in Alaska, Pelosi, in all her brilliance, accused Bush of getting the bill passed by "playing on the fears of the American public" by suggesting higher gasoline prices. Remember, they were ramping up for the 2006 Congressional elections, then, too.


Who's stupid, now, Pelosi?
