As the vice president knows, I have always advocated an all-of-the-above approach to American energy independence. Among other things, my alternative energy goal for Alaska sits at 50 percent because Alaska reached more than 20 percent during my term in office. The Obama-Biden administration, on the other hand, recently announced a renewable goal of only 25 percent. However, domestic drilling should remain a top priority in order to meet America’s consumption and security needs.
The vice president’s extreme opposition to domestic energy development goes all the way back to 1973 when he opposed the Alaska pipeline bill. As Ann Coulter pointed out, “Biden cast one of only five votes against the pipeline that has produced more than 15 billion barrels of oil, supplied nearly 20 percent of this nation’s oil, created tens of thousands of jobs, added hundreds of billions of dollars to the U.S. economy and reduced money transfers to the nation’s enemies by about the same amount.”
This nonsensical opposition to American domestic energy development continues to this day. Apparently the Obama-Biden administration only approves of offshore drilling in Brazil, where it will provide security and jobs for Brazilians. This election is about American security and American jobs.
There’s one way to tell Vice President Biden that we’re tired of folks in Washington distorting our message and hampering our nation’s progress: Hoffman, Baby, Hoffman!

Biden v. Palin -- The Re-Match ABC News’ Rick Klein reports:
Campaigning in an upstate New York congressional district, Vice President Joe Biden today attacked his one-time opponent, Sarah Palin, who has led a succession of big-name Republicans in backing the candidacy of the Conservative Party nominee.
Slow Joe's Comment: "Sarah Palin thinks the answer to energy is ‘Drill, baby, drill,' " Biden said at a rally this afternoon. Then he leaned in to the microphone: "It's a lot more complicated, Sarah."
Complicated. Isn't that another word for nuanced?
ReplyDeleteBiden. Kerry. Gore.
I'm just in awe of our Democrat overlords. They're so smart. How do we manage to get by without them dictating every detail of our lives?
Oops. I think I'm getting all wee wee'd up.
Poor Joe! Doesn't anyone have a job for him that will keep him from looking like an idiot?
ReplyDeleteBiden is a dope. He made these remarks in front of 50 people in which about 15 were media. He cannot even draw anyone to see him. He is so out of touch it is scary.
ReplyDelete"It's a lot more complicated, Sarah."
ReplyDeleteYes Joe, and you're a genius.
Go Sarah, GO!
