Tell Conoco Phillips who's really "unAmerican"
http://www.conocophillips.com/EN/utilities/contact/pages/questions_company.aspx

This was mine:

How can such a greedy, unpatriotic corporation DARE to call anyone else "unAmerican"? You are killing this nation with your parasitic greed.

Energy is too vital to our national security and our economy to remain in such greedy, unpatriotic claws.

1. There's no such thing as an "American oil company"
They're all multinational corporations with no allegiance to any one country.

2. The whole thing is a sham with both sides playing their part
From what I read today it stated that the Senate Democrats plan calls for cutting oil corporation subsidies 21 billion over the next ten years. At present consumption of 150 billion gallons a YEAR that work out to $0.014 per gallon, a freaking penny and a half per gallon. Gas is almost $4 a gallon and everyone is making a big deal over less than one half of %1 of the cost of gas.

I kind of agree with the one Senator today that said the whole thing was just a dog and pony show, it's theatrics and posturing, nothing will come from it.
