Maxine Waters-Socialism, yes that’s the answer.

In a rare, and most inadvertent, encounter with the truth, Democrat Maxine Waters, finally explained why Democrats have spent the last generation fighting for ever increasing gas, oil and energy prices.

Democrats have employed every means of American democracy to raise gas prices. When they controlled the White House they veto refinery construction and domestic oil exploration and production. When they control Congress they block legislation to the same purpose and when they don’t, characters like Chuck Schumer and Babs Barker filibuster domestic exploration and production. What little incentives to produce survive Congress are either killed by liberals in state legislative gymnastics or, failing that, blocked in well funded lawsuits where libs litigate their way to ever higher gas prices. How else can any rational person explain why we aren’t drilling the North Slope or the Caribbean basin when gas is $4 a gallon?

However, just yesterday, Maxine let it slip.

In the true spirit of the permanent revolution first advocated by Marx and Engels, the American liberals see an economically devastating energy crisis as the precipitating event for a socialist-governmental takeover of the energy industry.

So, if you want gas and electricity rationing (gas lines and brown outs you might recall) like California’s state controlled energy markets produced, then, by all means vote Democrat.

If you don’t, you’d better pull that GOP lever.
