The Democrat Agenda – Government Must Own Oil Industry

By Steve McGough / June 19, 2008 /

In the last month, at least two members of congress, Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) and Maurice Hinchey (D-N.Y.), called for nationalizing the oil industry. Read that sentence again. Can someone name for me any private industry that has been taken over by the government where service got better, quality improved, or costs went down? Certainly the…

Republicans Block Fuel Price Increase Proposed by Democrats

By Steve McGough / June 10, 2008 / Comments Off on Republicans Block Fuel Price Increase Proposed by Democrats

At least that’s how the headline should read.

We don’t need no steenkin’ individual mandate!
