Political Quotes

“As House Republicans continue to get to the bottom of what happened last September in Benghazi, it's important to bear in mind how events around the world affect such things as your family's gas bill here at home. We import a lot of our energy in this country--that's a fact. It's just a natural part of our global economy.

You'd think that would be a commonsense idea, but apparently it hasn't occurred to the Democrats who run Washington. The Keystone XL pipeline, for instance, would be able to transport 830,000 barrels of oil per day. That's about half the oil the U.S. imports from the Middle East. The more energy we can produce right here in America, the more jobs and more secure future we create. It's time for the President to approve this pipeline. ____________________”
