Bumper Sticker: "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less"

[Catch22Dem]

Saw it today.

[Median Democrat]

1. At Least You Did Not See It As A Clothing Logo

[GreenPartyVoter]

10. Hey, if they can put "Juicy" on the backside of girls' sweat pants....

[liberal N proud]

16. Oh, that is sooo bad

Sooooooooooooooooooo Bad!
:rofl:

[Median Democrat]

23. Sorry, the mental Image of the logo on the back of some hot pants

Flashed in my head. :wow:

Must think of something less provactive to get the thought out of my head.

[bluestateguy]

2. "in about 10 years...maybe"

nt

[Lorien]

7. But by that time gas will cost $10 a gallon

I always ask them "how much did waging war on Iraq lower your fuel costs"?

[brentspeak]

3. What is it about "most U.S. oil is exported" that these yahoos can't understand?

[dems_rightnow]

4. Most US oil isn't exported

C'mon.

[Lorien]

8. 33% is. We won't be getting 33% more by drilling. n/t

[dems_rightnow]

20. Not really

We export virtually no crude oil.

We do refine crude and export products, primarily distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, and petroleum coke. Those were about 1.4 million barrels a day. We produce about 5 million barrels a day and import around 10 million, so around 10% gets exported, but no crude.

That doesn't refute the fact that drilling will have little to no impact on price.

5. "exported". It has three syllables. That's two too many

[AllentownJake]

6. Newt is handing them out.

[Alexander]

9. I saw that sticker right next to one that said "Who is the real Barack Obama?"

With pictures of him in a turban holding a gun.

I hope the driver enjoyed looking at my middle finger.

Racist prick.

[GreenPartyVoter]

11. I saw a "Homeland Security: Since 1492" tee shirt recently. He had to be a freeper

[bbernardini]

12. Not necessarily...

I have a bumper sticker my mother-in-law gave me with almost exactly the same phrasing, and a picture, which is key. "Homeland Security: Fighting Terrorism Since 1492," with a picture of Native Americans holding guns.

[GreenPartyVoter]

13. It wasn't that logo, though. I think it was made in response with the reverse

idea in mind. I think there were U.S. Cavalry guys on it.. Not sure. Only got a real quick look, but it wasn't the one you were thinking of.

[regnaD kciN]

14. They're printing it out en masse...

I can only assume this is being done by an arm of the McCain campaign, in an attempt to short-circuit the facts on how drilling would have no effect on prices by simply turning it into an easily-chanted slogan.

And, you know what? It'll probably work. :-( Most people don't like putting in the effort to think, and will be endlessly grateful to anyone who will spare them the necessity of doing so.

In any event, is it any surprise that every vehicle I've seen carrying it also has the required "Support Our Troops" yellow ribbon magnet?

[BlooInBloo]

15. It has every virtue except for being true....

" WASHINGTON, July 3 (Reuters) - While the U.S. oil industry wants access to more federal lands to help reduce reliance on foreign suppliers, American-based companies are shipping record amounts of gasoline and diesel fuel to other countries.

A record 1.6 million barrels a day in U.S. refined petroleum products were exported during the first four months of this year, up 33 percent from 1.2 million barrels a day over the same period in 2007. Shipments this February topped 1.8 million barrels a day for the first time during any month, according to final numbers from the Energy Department."

17. SHIT, I forgot to mention it was on a big ass GMC Yukon XL

That's the punchline, and I totally forgot! **Kicking self**

[warren pease]

18. Was it plastered across his forehead? That sounds like a good place to start drilling. n/t

[Midlodemocrat]

19. I saw the same one last week.

:puke:

[wanpete]

21. saw one at the voting station on primary day a fews weeks ago. disgusting!

[Fumesucker]

22. He means drill his gas tank..

It's about impossible to siphon gas any more, it's much easier to find a big ass SUV (lots of room underneath), drill the tank with cordless drill and drain it into a few five gallon buckets.

I take junk cars to the scrap metal recycling sometimes and they demand a hole be drilled in the tank, I guess they don't want twenty gallons of gas exploding in the crusher. :evilgrin:

[girl gone mad]

24. Um..

You know people are getting desperate when they're advertising their discounted "services" on bumper stickers.

[spanone]

25. it's ignorant as hell, but i bet hundreds of dem reps vote for it when pelosi brings up the vote

[HughBeaumont]

26. Here's the site that comes from . . .

I can't believe my wingnut friend sent me this knowing how I feel about Newtjob:

Ever notice that the right wingers from Gingrich to Pickens are starting to hone in on the whole "green" and "alternative energy" thing? News flash, dolts. You can't own the sun or the wind, food for fuel is a shit short-term idea, as is the hydrogen cell and no one trusts you due to the fact that you're in the pockets of Big Oil and Cheney, Inc.
