Can you show proof that the majority of oil companies who would be affected by a windfall profits tax are located in red states?

That's not what I'm saying. You did not hear my words on that clip, did you? I'm simply pointing out the double standards in the Obama camp.

You keep personally attacking me here. I'm not a hypocryt as everyone here knows where I stand with Obama. I know where I stand with my issues.

My point is: That The Obama camp can use the race card and insult others, but when they get attacked they go to their friends from MSNBC AND CNN to help them.

I did read your hypocritical words, that's why I was able to identify them as such. You call Michelle's comments "crap" and "low punches", yet I don't believe any posts of your can be found that complain of "crap" and "low punches" that Clinton throws at Obama. I see a double standard, but it's a different one than what you are talking about.

I'm not personally attacking you. I'm just pointing out that your comments on Obama and Clinton are hypocritical. You condemn low blows coming from the Obama campaign, yet your posts indicate an approval of low blows coming from the Clinton campaign. That's hypocrisy.

My point is that your point is partisan: totally pro-Clinton and anti-Obama. So your criticism of Obama for doing something wrong is meaningless, since you give a free pass to Clinton for attacks, but contradict that with criticism of Obama for attacks.

Use your common sense. Where is the oil in this country? In red states. Where the companies are headquartered isn't particularly relevant.

Your argument is more like a half-baked theory. How do you know that we won't be taxing BP (British Petroleum) or Citgo (Venezuela) or the profits oil companies get from their oil reserves in countries outside of the United States? You don't know that, do you?

Either way, Democrats do not represent the oil industry because they do not represent oil states. They would never do to coal or ethanol interests what they do to oil interests.

The coal and ethanol subsidies will remain in place while oil companies lose their tax breaks. That is known as favoritism.

Either way, your opinion is totally unsubstantiated with facts as usual. Just totally made up bullshit.

He said as the Democrats just voted near unanimously for a bloated farm bill despite the fact that farm prices and incomes are at record highs.

Food prices are high and do the Democrats respond by attacking food like they attack oil producers? Of course not.

If certain people are elected into office all this will come true. Fewer countries will export to the U.S. because of higher taxes and tariffs and domestic oil companies will export more jobs and possibly move off shore to escape the heavy taxation. Maybe even sell the company to foreign investors.
