Speaking for the Senate Republicans, Elizabeth Dole really is an idiot

I read this quote in an AP article and thought, huh? Could she be such a moron? I know it comes from here lackeys at the Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee, but it's so pathetic.

Sen. Elizabeth Dole, chairwoman of the Republican Senate campaign committee, issued a statement that said, "Democrats have decided to play partisan politics with gas prices in a flailing attempt to distract from the growing economy."
Clearly, Dole and the GOP are the ones flailing. They've been in cahoots with big oil for years. For Christ sakes, the Prez and the Veep are OIL MEN. According to Open Secrets, oil and gas interests have given 80% of their political money to the GOP over the past couple cycles -- that percentage has risen steadily. The best Dole can do is a press release blaming the Dems. for playing politics.

To Dole and the GOP, pointing out the pain being caused to American families by skyrocketing gas prices is partisan politics. Because to them, everything is politics. To American families, $3.00 a gallon (and rising fast) is a very harsh reality -- that's something the GOP has really been missing.
