DNC chairwoman slams GOP on energy ahead of Obama speech
By Ben Geman    - 02/23/12 11:05 AM ET

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said Thursday that GOP White House hopefuls will do nothing to help consumers at the gasoline pump.

The Florida congresswoman’s comments come hours before President Obama is slated to give an energy speech in Miami aimed partly at rebutting GOP political attacks over rising gas prices. She said the GOP plans would keep the United States dependent on foreign oil.

“The Republican field, like Mitt Romney, thinks that we just need to remain tethered and dependent on foreign oil because all they would do is more and more drilling, which is a very shortsighted approach and it would do nothing to prevent people who are struggling to put $80 into their gas tanks to be able to make sure that that’s more affordable,” Wasserman Schultz said on MSNBC.

“And that is another example of how they are economically out of touch,” she said.

“I've developed a program for American energy so no future president will ever bow to a Saudi king again.....

So blammo doesn't want us to bow down like he does. Hmmm...just what is his plan?

Lessee. No drilling? OF COURSE!!!! Well get the oil through osmisis!

I heard his secret plan is algae. You can't make up this kind of stuff. They had clips on Fox News of him boosting the development of algae as an alternative fuel.  :whatever:

I've got plenty of that stuff in my pond. He can start harvesting right there.

I ain't signing any of my algae rights away, though. Cash on the barrelhead (no pun intended).  :-)

Ho win the hell would us drilling oil keep us dependent on foreign oil?
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

OK. So we can infer from Wasserman Schulz that she supports Sarah Palin's advice.

DRILL, BABY, DRILL!!!
