On this first day of March, oil prices came in like a lion, but when it comes to taking away oil company tax breaks and cutting the federal deficit, Republicans act like docile lambs. Today a grand total of zero Republicans were brave enough to say the biggest oil companies don’t need 100 year-old tax breaks to sell $100 per barrel oil to make more than $100 billion per year in profits.

From your article, Linda. Sometimes they just can't HELP THEMSELVES in using a tad bit of the truth in their lying propaganda.

Look down the 'list' of those so-called 'tax breaks' - no different than what is allowed for ALL similar businesses. Depletion - look up the logging industry and mining industries.

See - a TAX BREAK - is in absolutely no way a 'tax subsidy'. That is a MASSIVE FRAUD that has been perpetrated by a hoard of lying thieves.
