.. I’ll get this post started off with the following news letter sent out yesterday, Wednesday, August 06, 2008 by Dave Ryan, President of American Solutions.
It goes as follows:
Dear Aubrey J,
.
I want to share some really exciting news with you. As you know, poll after poll shows that we are winning the argument about how to lower gas and diesel prices and develop more American energy now.
But the even bigger news is that the anti-energy elites are desperately worried. They are not only criticizing us, but they are admitting that they are losing the argument.
And friends, that's big. In fact, considering the source, that's huge.
Recently, liberal group MoveOn.org in an email to their supporters sounded dejected. They wrote "Here's the truth: Right now, progressives are losing this argument."
That can mean only one thing - WE ARE WINNING THIS ARGUMENT!
In the energy debate, common sense is winning and it's got the anti-energy elites rattled because they offer no solutions to lowering gas and diesel prices.
American Solutions, on the other hand, has taken a bold stand and has been leading the "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less" movement that has energized millions of Americans around a positive solution. Because of your help and the help of more than a million others, today an overwhelming majority of Americans support opening up new areas for exploration and drilling of American oil and gas, including offshore.
Even though MoveOn.org admits we are winning, they won't quit, and there is still more work to be done.
Congress has left for a 5-week vacation without doing anything to address the soaring cost of gas and diesel. This inaction is unacceptable to the American people, many of whom can't afford a vacation this year.
Earlier today, American Solutions held a press conference with Speaker Gingrich and Members of Congress still in Washington working to pass an energy bill. Our message to them was simple: On behalf of the 1.4 million Americans who have signed the "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less" petition, it's time for Congress to take immediate action to lower gas and diesel prices.

Now more than ever, we need your help to keep the pressure on Congress. [Email, tell all of your friends we are winning the argument, and along with yourself, if you haven’t already signed, urge everyone to sign the "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less" petition.]
If we get 2 million petition signatures we will make a big impact at both the Democratic and Republican conventions.
Thank you for all you are doing - we're really making a difference.
Sincerely,
Dave Ryan
President
American Solutions

Here’s some more of what’s in the Energy Political News...
.
* CNSNews.com reports... Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said it’s time for the Senate – including presidential hopefuls Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Barack Obama (D-Ill.) - to join House Republicans in calling for Congress to reconvene and pass a comprehensive energy bill that would allow new offshore drilling for oil... “If (McCain and Obama) want to show real leadership, then they should come back here,” Gingrich said following a press conference on Wednesday outside the House chamber...

.
* CNN.com has this report, news videos too... He led Republicans into government shutdowns in the 1990s, and now, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich indicates his party is seriously considering another shutdown threat to force a vote on offshore oil drilling in September... House Republicans brought Gingrich to the Capitol on Wednesday, partly to revive media coverage of their speech-making protest in the chamber, now in its fourth day... The rest of Congress is gone for August recess, but several Republican House members have been speaking on the floor of the closed-down chamber, calling for a special session to vote on drilling and energy... Gingrich did attract more camera crews, and he used the opportunity to point to what may be the GOP's next strategy: If Democrats refuse to hold a separate vote on oil drilling, Republicans could try to block the votes needed to keep government running past September 30...
