Interesting Numbers

Over at PowerLine, they have some interesting numbers showing just who supports America being less dependent on foreign oil and who only gives lipservice to that:

ANWR Exploration House Republicans: 91% Supported House Democrats: 86% Opposed

Coal-to-Liquid
House Republicans: 97% Supported
House Democrats: 78% Opposed

Oil Shale Exploration
House Republicans: 90% Supported
House Democrats: 86% Opposed

Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Exploration
House Republicans: 81% Supported
House Democrats: 83% Opposed

Refinery Increased Capacity
House Republicans: 97% Supported
House Democrats: 96% Opposed

SUMMARY

91% of House Republicans have historically voted to increase the production of American-made oil and gas.

86% of House Democrats have historically voted against increasing the production of American-made oil and gas.

Well gosh, that's quite a bit different than what they're saying, isn't it? One could almost believe they *want* these high gas prices. I wonder why that would be? Oh...so they can "save" us all from the eeevil oil corporations, that's right.
