Friday Energy


I expect we'll have another action-packed day on the energy issue. This is the post for all of those developing stories, links, and commentary...

  • Rasmussen Reports: "81% Say Finding New Energy Sources is Urgent National Need" -- "All of the Above" means we need more than just tire inflation...and America gets that even if some people don't...


  • Rep. Bob Latta Twitters: "I had another meeting with local farmers today and energy policy was once again the main topic of discussion."


  • Robert Bluey Twitters: "A woman from Florida tells Pence: 'I've never been prouder to be a Republican.' Visitors are really getting into it today."


  • Republican Leader, my Congressman and a Great American -- John Boehner -- on GOP Energy Plan: "If We Get a Chance to Have a Debate & A Vote, We Will Win & the American People Will Win"


  • Heritage Foundation: "There is More Oil Than Government Says in OCS" -- BizzyBlog makes the same point here.


  • Video from today's #dontgo session:



  • When people ask why the NRSC is the most clueless of the lot, I'll point them in the direction of this piece in the WSJ. Republican Senators are risking the GOP's best issue for a "bipartisan compromise" that is not a compreshensive solution to the energy problem.


  • Rep. Bob Latta talks to 13abc about an Energy Bill


  • MUCH MORE TO COME...STAY TUNED TO WMD...
