Rep. Peterson GETS IT!

Thanks to environmental wackos peddling their form of Marxism, America’s energy dependence continues to rest solely upon the shoulders of nations like Venezuela, Mexico and numerous Middle Eastern countries. In fact Castro is preparing to beat us with their own self righteousness as he prepares to drill off the coast of Florida.

Rep. John Peterson, a Republican who is trying mightily to lift the presidential and congressional bans that protect much of the U.S. coastline from offshore drilling, is citing Cuba’s fledgling energy-exploration program - and its proximity to Florida’s coastline - as a reason the United States should explore its own coast for natural gas.

“It’s astounding we’re going to sit here and say `We’re not going to produce,’ and, meanwhile, our good friend Fidel Castro is going to suck it up under our noses,” Peterson said in a phone interview, citing reports that show Cuba is moving aggressively to explore waters northeast and northwest of Havana, some parcels about 50 miles from Key West.

Striking out at the intellectual lightweights throwing up roadblocks to our energy independence, Peterson said

“Imagine what Castro is thinking as we spend our time quarreling over whether we should produce American energy 100, 150 or 250 miles from the Florida coast while he makes arrangements to set up shop hundreds of miles closer,” Peterson wrote in a letter to The Miami Herald. “He must love that we’ve allowed emotion to win out over reason, facts to be dwarfed by fear and our nation’s energy policy to be driven by unreasonable environmental concerns.”

You can bet he is laughing all the way to the bank as the enemy within slowly destroys America.

On topic and intelligent comments are always welcome as are humorous observations. But liberal talking points with no basis in reality, off topic comments, spam and advertisements are not. Even though you may think you are an intelligent liberal, you probably are not. Keep this in mind as trolling is prohibited and will result in your comments not being approved and comments informing us how much we are a bunch of idiots because you say we are or espousing hate towards the truth are often moved directly to the official “I Hate You/You’re An Idiot” thread. Save us all the time and post there directly if you have a comment that would meet those criteria. Commenters reserve the right to mock claims about how liberal ideas, such as higher taxes, actually work and how conservative and right wingers, are NAZIs, racists, sexists, etc. and will do so with great regularity.
