Yoo who anyone listening?

Yesterday McCain came to Texas and said that he now supports off-shore oil drilling ,even though he railed against it in the 2000 elections. This morning we got Bush giving a speech on drilling for more oil. Thanks, why didn’t you guys do this about 6 yrs ago? Dickheads.

Then we have Obama saying that when he is president he will tax the ever loving piss out of the “EEEVVILL” oil companies take those profits and use them to create “green jobs”. Whatever the fuck those are. That we cannot drill our way out of this problem Blah, blah, 10 years, blah, George Bush, Global Warming, polar bears, blah blah, progressive blah.

Now let me get this straight. Opening up ANWR, getting rid of the moratorium on drilling in the outer continental shelf. Building shale to oil, coal to oil and nuclear power plants then actually using them. All the while exploring new avenues of energy. These are bad things?

I wonder how many jobs Obama’s green team will create vs. destroy at the same time?

Now let’s ponder how many jobs the aforementioned will create. Labor to build the plants and drilling rigs, labor to fire them up and use them, jobs mining the coal to convert to oil and manufacture electricity. Then the labor to run and maintain the plants. These alone would probably be in the millions. Not to mention the distribution and transportation of the materials. You got a couple million more right there. Plus the jobs that the “green” energy exploration would create.

Hey Ubama, McCain! You want to help the poor in this country start with energy exploration. It would lower gas prices and create jobs that people would want to do because they pay good.

I don’t understand why a guy that dropped out of high school and went to work full-time installing flooring at 16 can figure this shit out but all these supposed intellectual elites cannot.
