Kind states “My problem with ‘Drill, Drill, Drill,’ is that it’s a big fraud on the American public.”
I submit that it is Kind, the 12-year incumbent, along with his Democrat party led by Nancy Pelosi, who is perpetuating the fraud on the American people. He says no to drilling on land, but yes to drilling at sea. What gives?
Why is it OK to drill in the pristine environment of our oceans but not on land? Are we more responsible drilling at sea vs. land? Why does he want to limit off-shore drilling to beyond 50 miles when 88 percent of off shore-oil and gas reserves are within 50 miles of our shores? His Democrat plan does not allow any royalty revenue sharing with the states involved either. Why would a coastal state say yes to drilling when Kind and the Democrats vote no to sharing revenues with them?
The man has perfected the art of double speak to hide his true intention — No oil drilling for America! There is a big fraud perpetuated on the American people. Kind needs to take a long look in the mirror to see the perpetrator.
Kind’s no to drilling means yes to higher energy costs. Kind’s higher energy costs means reduced economic competitiveness on the global market. Kind’s less economic competitiveness means more jobs going overseas. Kind’s policies are the fraud perpetuated on America.
