This video (from CSPAN, today) shows Americans that the Democrats will not allow even a debate on the Senate floor, on our demands to allow drilling for oil on our own continental shelves, even if gasoline hits $10.00 per gallon.

Senator Mitch McConnell, (R) Senate Minority Leader, asks for unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the immediate consideration of a Senate Bill to address drilling in the outer continental shelf...

Senator Ken Salazar, (D) Colorado: I object.

McConnell: [Renews proposed consent agreement, with the enactment date triggered when the price of gasoline reaches $4.50 at the pump.]

Salazar: I object.

And so on. Senator McConnell increments the proposed trigger, each time getting the grim response: "I Object".

At $4.50/Gallon: Democrats: Object

At $5.00/Gallon: Democrats: Object

At $7.50/Gallon: Democrats: Object

At $10.00/Gallon: Democrats: Object

You can see where this is going, right? Democrats now have a complete disregard of the 'little guy', of the average American's woes at the pump. This is proof of the complete disregard of the working-class Americans that Democrats say they 'favor'. Over the rich (who can afford $10.00/gallon gasoline).

We can see who Democrats 'favor' and are truly beholden to: the Environmentalists. And the Al Gore global warmalists who would rather see the U.S. economy slump than admit that the earth's warming isn't caused by...the U.S.'s economy, or even the World's economy. And, of course, Democrats are beholden to winning at all costs, in November.

Seems that they are getting a bit carried away by their own hubris.
