President Obama and the Democrats are determined to keep us beholden to the Muslim Middle East. For years the Dems have prevented the drilling for oil in our own country, have prevented the building of nuclear power plants, have prevented the building of new refineries, all at the behest of the radical left environmental whackos, who want to return us to the twelfth century, convinced that we would all be better citizens if we depended on windmills for our power. Yet President Obama has no problem paying Brazil to drill in the Atlantic Ocean, paying Colombia to build refineries, and will be building nuclear power plants in the Middle East. What goes on here?
In our backyard we want no nukes
We’ll give it though to Mamelukes
The oil we have we will not drill
But pay for drilling in Brazil
Refineries we’ll build no more
Unless it’s in a foreign shore
Our shale deposits hold more gas
Than all the world yet still we pass
Why do we do these things at all
Why do we keep ourselves in thrall
To sheikhs and self styled Arab kings
Why do we bow and kiss their rings
For surely those in power know
That we could let the Mideast go
And use our coal and oil and gas
To kick those bastards in the ass
We’re told the reason we don’t drill
‘Twould harm the lizards, ocean krill
The caribou would be upset
And that is why we have to get
Our oil from folks who want us dead
We’ve put the gun to our own head
There’s something up somebody’s sleeve
That is the answer I believe
