Get over to Ace of Spades HQ and read about the controversy surrounding the Outer Continental Shelf Drilling bill.

Perfect. A "drilling" bill which does not actually permit drilling -- thus ending all possibility of expanded drilling in the future. The Democrats will say, correctly, "Well, we voted for a 'drilling bill' last time and supplies did not rise and prices did not fall. So isn't our precious ecosystem more important than expanded drilling, which has been proven not to work?"

It's better to have no bill at all than a phony one which dishonesty "proves" there's simply no point to drilling more American oil.

 

At least with no bill, we can keep fighting on this vital issue into the future, with some hope of success.

Here is a list of rino targets if you feel inclined to take action.

Sen. Saxby Chambliss (GA) -- 202-224-3521 -- 770-763-9090

Sen. Johnny Isakson (GA) -- 202-224-3643 -- 770-661-0999

Sen. Bob Corker (TN) -- 202-224-3344 -- 423-756-2757

Sen. Lindsey Graham (SC) -- 202-224-5972 -- 864-250-1417

Sen. John Thune (SD) -- 202-224-2321 -- 605-334-9596

I believe the bill in question is HR6899.
