2008 Campaign

Family Security Matters does not stand behind or endorse any candidate for president (or any other public office). However, as the President is also Commander-in-Chief and is responsible for setting national security policy, we will be publishing a variety of articles on both the Republican and Democrat candidates for President during this election year. As always, the opinions of our Contributing Editors are their own, and do not necessarily reflect those of Family Security Matters.

Petition: Call Congress Back, Madame Speaker

 

Two weeks ago, Congress adjourned for a five-week summer recess with the current energy crisis still unresolved.

When asked several times by ABC's George Stephanoplous why she wouldn't allow a straight up-and-down vote on expanding offshore drilling, Pelosi responded in part:

"This is a diversionary tactic from a failed energy policy...because the misrepresentation is being made that this will reduce the price at the pump. This is a, uh, again, a decoy, not a solution...We have a debate every single day on this subject. But we have a planet to save."

If you'd like Congress to vote on this issue now rather than later, click here to sign the petition. Let's remind our elected representatives who they really work for.
