$40.6 billion reasons for Republicans to vote against Republicans?

$4.00 gas is cheap?

So, ExxonMobil profited $40.6 billion dollars this year. That's plenty of money to keep buying Congress, as oil companies have been doing for decades.

But I don't care about $46.6 billion.

In the 1990's it cost America more money to secure and transport oil from the Middle East than the oil from the Middle East was worth. Yet, Americans don't pay for the security costs of oil at the gasoline pump. In fact, if Americans paid the real cost of gasoline at the pump, gas would probably cost $10.00 or more per gallon.

Environmental costs would probably push this cost even higher.

Yet, not one Republican is really addressing this issue, nor are any Democrats. Despite the fact that military-industrial complex that runs our government via cheap oil has created two wars in the Middle East, 9/11 and created massive pollution, not one mainstream politician is taking real action to change this.

OUR government has failed us, and voting 100 percent Democrat or Republican won't change that fact. Democrats have run Congress and the White House. Republicans have run Congress and the White House. Little has ever changed.

Vote against the incumbent in 2008!
