AP: Cheney blames Democrats for HIGH OIL prices...HAHA - Funniest EVER!

[jackstraw45]

Wow, that Halliburton stooge Dick is one hilarious mass murderer. The oil on his lips aren't ever dry but believe it or not, Cheney is truly trying to blame democrats for high oil prices. I just laughed my ass off.

I'd like to meet the IDIOTS who believe this crap. I'd like to sell them some beach propterty for $1 million. The property is, of course, a handful of sand but they'd buy it.

REMEMBER: It's not about the oil, it's about the CONTRACTS to extract the oil - that's where the $$$$ is for Cheney and his Haliburton stooges.

1. Oh yeah. The old "rape the earth to protect our wallets" argument.

[displacedtexan]

2. You mean Vice pResident "Warm and Fuzzy?"

[The_Casual_Observer]

7. pResident of vice

He has been holding this one in reserve. Things are heating up. I expected to hear this one in Sept or Oct when prices hit $3/gal.

[AndyTiedye]

17. Warm and Fuzzy Like a

[gratuitous]

3. Bwahahahahahaha!!!

Get this:

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. - Vice President Dick Cheney said Tuesday that rising consumption and decreasing domestic production have led to high gasoline prices but also blamed his Democratic opponents and their opposition to the Bush administration's energy policies.

Golly Crashcart! You'd think the Democrats are in control, or have held secret meetings with fatcat oil and energy executives.

Cheney you, Dick.

[Warpy]

4. OK, let me get this right.

Resisting drilling in ANWR, which would take 2 years to proudce 6 months of the bunker oil we sell to Japan is raising prices NOW?

OK, that does it. Cheney is insane.

[Junkdrawer]

20. No no no...It was taking God out of the Pledge of Allegiance ...

that caused oil prices to rise. You liberals never get ANYTHING right.

[jackstraw45]

24. ANWR=HUGE $$$ for Halliburton - there's the angle and explanation..NT

NT

[trotsky]

5. What a joke.

"We have put ourselves into a box. The only thing I can think of to do is to keep pushing for a comprehensive energy policy," (Cheney) said.

Um, what exactly was all that hubbub for, Dick? Remember your SECRET MEETINGS where you were supposed to formulate this energy policy? The ones you refuse to release the notes on? Maybe if you'd let us see them, we could find out exactly what items you proposed to help fight oil dependence that those darn mean Democrats defeated.

[hang a left]

10. Even DICK's running out of ideas.

" The only thing I can think of to do is to keep pushing for a comprehensive energy policy," (Cheney) said.

[rumguy]

6. The more he pushes this ANWR fantasy the more idiotic he looks

ANWR would be nothing but a drop in the bucket compared to our needs!

He lives in a fantasy world where ANWR will solve all our energy problems and Saddam and AQ were working together. He is a doddering old fool who's growing battier by the day - I'm surprised they even let this idiot speak in public. He's a walking catastrophe.

[jackstraw45]

9. ANWR contract would be worth HUNDREDS of millions for Haliburton

Cheney, STILL CEO of Haliburton using American blood to secure contracts for his company.

[ClintonTyree]

8. I guess it's true.....................

I don't want oil derriks all over the landscape. If I, in some small way, have fucked up Dick Cheney's day, I consider myself to be the luckiest man in the world!

[jackstraw45]

11. Kerry needs to strike back at this "BIG TIME"

Cheney is such a "Major league asshole."

[Massacure]

12. Rate it a 1.

[LittleApple81]

14. I was asking myself a question about the rating. IT IS SO RIDICULOUS

I would like for reasonable people to read it. But then we have all those unreasonable people... I have a friend that is very nice, really compasionate... and a republican. And she gave me that answer a long time ago, when I said that the Arctic should be off limits because what the reserves there would provide is so little that it would not SOLVE any problems and leave the area totally damaged... She said our economic reasons trump nature!!!!!! Then I said that you could obtain much more of an advantage by enacting the CAFE standards for fuel consumption for automobiles... She said: that is not what Americans want so who are the politicians to impose their will on the American public....
I have not talked t her in a long time...

[fishface]

13. He has a point and they should fix that

by demanding he start drilling in the gulf on all those leases his bought up so Jebby could get re-elected.

[Tight_rope]

15. Thanks for the joke of day "DICK"!

[Cat Atomic]

16. He should blame Dems for the Iraq invasion, too.

Oh wait- he does.

Invading was the right thing to do. But it's Clinton's fault.

We're safer today because of Bush's policies. But we're in such peril that we may have to postpone the elections.

You need drugs to believe all this shit at once. I think that's why Rush took up the pills.

[MaryH]

18. I READ TODAY THAT OIL MAY GO TO $100 A BARREL

That would mean double what we are paying now. I don't know that it really would add up to that but I'm sure the oil companies will take us for all we are worth.

[jackstraw45]

19. Well...let's focus on $45 for now...

We are currently getting screwed by the fact that the Bush administration has an emergy policy benefiting Saudi Arabia but not for America.

[proud patriot]

21. Let see here Republicans control the Executive,Judicial and

the Legislative braches of Government .

Hmmmm Yeah sure blame the people who have
zero say . :eyes:

[jackstraw45]

22. The dittoheads will believe ANYTHING

I love America...but why are so many Americans so ignorant?

Oh yeah, i forgot, our crappy education system.

Keep cutting GOP, keep cutting....

:eyes:

[Piperay]

23. Repukes are infantile

they can never be adults and take responsiblity for what they do. Hey uncle dickie, grow some balls and quit blaming everyone else for your fuck-ups! :mad:

[Rose Siding]

25. Their own study doesn't even support that argument

via Talking Points Memo:

Yet, the Energy Department's own study of the bill -- a study requested by Senator John Sununu (R-NH) -- said its effect on prices, even years into the future, would be "negligible".

26. Kicking in disbelief...

:kick:

[bossfish]

27. At least the AP reporter put this in...

"... he told a hand-picked audience of supporters...."
