Rep. Rob Wittman (R-VA):

“Common sense is not very common in Washington, D.C… Why aren’t we using all the resources that we Americans can bring to the table?”

“We need to use our American ingenuity to solve these problems…We will get it done if there’s a vote on this floor.”

I as a American citizen DEMAND that Nacy Pelois and Harry Reid do the job they were elected to do. Just as Barack Obama preaches from his stump, its from the bottom up, WE THE PEOPLE not we the Nancy Pelois and Harry Reid. Nancy seems to be taking her new book to extremes. She can not hold our energy captive. Drill now. Vote Vote…………..

We fully support the Republicans who are finally standing up to Nancy Pelosi and her cronies. Keep it up. The Democrats should be embarrased by their lack of action on the energy problem we are all facing.

As an auctioneer I can see first hand what is happening to the economy. Prices of houses are dropping, foreclosures are skyrocketing, re-sale of consumer goods is dropping (price and participation), but yet the democrats can afford to go on vacation.
Since when has the greatest country in the world ever needed to be dependent on others.
THIS HAS GOT TO STOP!!!
Thank you republicans for doing this for AMERICA and her people.

It’s about time we found our feet in this debate. Go Republicans. This stand against Nancy Pelosi and her gang is something we can all be proud of.

I want to thank the Republicans who are standing up to the Speaker. We the people want our Congress, for once, to think of the citizens of this country and what the majority of us want. We want drilling offshore and in Anwar. NOW! It is past time for some kind of action.

I’m with you 100%!!! THANK YOU for taking this stand! I’m disgusted at how the media has given this so little coverage or actually ignored it altogether. I wish I could drive to D.C. to stand with you in this fight. I would, if gasoline was not so expensive
