Nancy Queen Pelosi in bed w Boone Pickens! LOL

Nancy Pelosi, according to her own financial forms, invested something like 50 to $125,000 in Boone Pickens' plan to eventually power vehicles in this country on natural gas. She got in on the initial public offering of this when the thing went public. Now, it is in the best interests of Boone Pickens and all of his investors to keep gasoline prices high to make the natural gas alternative attractive. And who is it that doesn't want any drilling for oil to add to the supply but none other than Nancy Pelosi. Gas prices are the tipping point, four-dollar gasoline. The American people want something done about it. It's easily understandable. She's the one, along with the Democrats, standing in the way of this on purpose. Now we learn that she's invested in Boone Pickens' company that, for their little plan to pay off we need gas prices to stay high, to make the alternatives that Pickens is trying to sell to people attractive, and she's joined that effort. There's a great question here for conflict. So she's seen all this, "Okay, I'm open to scheduling a vote." But they'll come up with a piece of legislation that's as reckless and worthless as what the Gang of Ten came up with in the Senate.

Wow that is horrible but not surprising. Pelosi needs to be behind bars. This cannot happen...

Excellent find.

For the last two years, the congress has been trying to reduce the tax giveaway for Windmills, since the American taxpayers subsidizes their electricity by 150%.

T. Boone knows the subsidy is going away, but wants to build "the largest windfarm in Texas" with our tax money. If you have been to Texas in the last two years, you would know that the "Largest wind farm in Texas" would be 2X bigger than any other windfarm in the entire world.

He can't do it without the Enablers in Congress.

Texas has enough damn windmills. The power flickers on calm days. We need nuclear power plants, not stupid windmills.

Screw the polar bears, they need to quit screwing up my habitat with those damn windmills.

it didn't help that boone pickens really screwed up my undergraduate school (Oklahoma State) and my hometown (Stillwater, OK). he gave these massive, multimillion dollar donations to the school, his alma mater, that could only be spent on athletics, and in OK, we have this idiotic law that says gifts to state schools have to be matched dollar for dollar. So they raised the crap out of tuition the last year and a half I was there, and of course none of that money got spent on academics so the quality of education didn't go up at all. OSU used to be the best value in undergraduate education in the nation -- not anymore. Also, they spent most of the money on this Athletic Village that they just had to build right in the middle of town (even though there was plenty of land available not far away right outside of town), so they had to implement mass usage of emminent domain. They also used the money to rennovate the stadium, which involved closing a main thoroughfare right through the middle of town. taking all this land right in the middle of town caused some serious traffic flow problems for the city, which involved expanding other roads... yep, you guessed it, higher taxes. and traffic is still ridiculous in our little city of 40,000. but to make matters worse, part of the ultimate "master plan" for the campus involves using emminent domain to seize "the strip," which is the traditional bar district and a place i have a lot of memories of, and which I still like to visit when I'm in town.

So **** Boone Pickens. And the same goes for that crook from california. i hope Cindy Sheehan unseats her handily.

Ah it's been a while since I went to Stillwater. Cool little place (or it was). My wife's high school friend played a year of hoops there for the crappy Cowgirls.

They aren't gonna kill Eskimo Joe's are they?
