The duties of the United States Congress

the lack of a solution for the energy problems. Besides, they have the Liberal Drive by Media at their side doing everything to justify their actions again, to assure a victory in November 2008.

The latest delaying ploys are the few crumbs that the Liberal controlled congress has suggested for a solution to the energy woes. Decreasing the speed limit to save gas is one ploy. Another is releasing oil from the US Federal Reserve Petroleum Storage and this too, will not solve the problem. The Liberal controlled Congress knows full well that we should be drilling now and should have drilled in 2000. The same is true for refinery construction. Now that the ramifications are obvious the Liberal controlled Congress wants to roll the dice and gamble that they can stall just another three months and continue to blame everyone and everything for the energy crisis and that the US public will forget after November 2008. In fact, if the Democrats did win the 2008 election you can bet they will be leading the slaughter of the Caribou and drilling in Anhwar. For that matter they will be drilling anywhere they may and do it gladly so more taxes may be collected for their Liberal agenda. Citizens be patient. Many have suffered hardships for the greater Liberal good and you can always start over.

Therefore, citizens of the US, the great hope is that the truth will be remembered and when voting in November 2008 citizens will rid us of these worthless representatives in Congress. Look at it as a protective measure in case Obama wins the presidency to avoid being controlled to the extent of anarchy and taxed to death.
For truly, if we have this bunch in control of the US Congress and the Administrative Branch of the government in the control of their candidate their disregard for the citizens will come in last to their power control. This will translate to being a prisoner in our own country. The duty of Congress is to serve the citizens of the United States and their welfare.
