I remember very clearly the statement Pelosi made before they won
congress saying they had a no nonsense plan to lower gas prices. So
far their plan has raised oil prices and raised food prices by taking
corn and turning it in to fuel. 20 gallons of fuel made from corn
will feed a person for a year. STUPIDIEST IDEA EVER - use food for
fuel when we have plentiful sources of fuel if we'd only drill and
refine them here, and guess what, that would make jobs too.
