Rasmussen - Most voters continue to feel America needs to do more to develop domestic gas and oil resources. They also still give the edge to finding new sources of oil over reducing gas and oil consumption. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely Voters shows that just 19% believe the United States does enough to develop its own gas and oil resources. Seventy-five percent (75%) do not think the country is doing enough in this area. Read full story here: News New Mexico

ONLY 75%? Energy "policies"? What energy policy? Did you guys mean the policy of encouraging OTHER countries to develop their less developed oil reserves so we can then become THEIR customer too? Personally, I don't get it. The president and every other political hack in BOTH parties CLAIM we're too dependent upon foreign oil. Then when we have an opportunity to develop our own resources, here at home, we allow a tiny minority of kookie environmentalists to have their way and instead turn our noses up at these opportunities. Why? It's certainly NOT because their claims have any legitimacy. It's almost as though drilling for energy resources is a "dirty" endeavor that always ends up with someone making a, GOD FORBID, P-R-O-F-I-T!! OMG! We can't have that!! The change we were promised was that there wouldn't be anymore profits being made in America that would end up in the dirty little hands of RICH people. Ooooohhh, the evil rich people. Are you guys referring to THAT deficient NON-ENERGY policy? Well...I will give Obama credit for this; NO ONE IS MAKING A PROFIT NOW. Unfortunately however, that also means many people don't have a job. Consequently that ALSO means many of those people, who once DID have a job, no longer have mortgage payments because they LOST THEIR HOMES! What is it with Harvard and all these other ALLEGED superior Ivy League schools (where the nation's brain trust was allegedly educated) and the myth that the most intelligent people graduated from there? Didn't anyone teach them that in order for all the (ahem) "less educated masses" to HAVE A JOB someone would FIRST have to operate a P-R-O-F-I-T-A-B-L-E business? Why don't they teach this at places like Harvard? What I see they do teach is how to read a teleprompter and speak many very elegant words that mean LESS THAN NOTHING.
