Oh, you're usin' it brother, but have totally lost it...

Thousands of Tulsans lost their jobs, though.  Williams lost billions in assets, though.

Yer pro-biz, thievin, lyin' elected GOP stoogers fiddle while Williams evaporated.  And now Hillary is a socialist because she wants to up the taxes on the energy sector.  Okaaaayyyy.

He believes that Warren and Bush made money off of purchasing Williams' assets and it was Inhofe's fault for not saying anything...where's Altruismsuffers when you need him?



I think the clock just struck 12....

So let's see, Warren, Bush, Inhoffe, Keating and all the Republicans were responsible for it, hmmmm.  There's no truth to that, actually I made all the money off their assets.  Yeah, that's the ticket!



Well, it certainly had nothing to do with the conspiracy amongst a few of Williams employees to keep a power plant shut down on purpose for two weeks to manipulate the power market in California, thereby hosing a bunch of consumers, nor some toads lying to regulators, and a few other toads putting the accounting hard drives in the microwave...[xx(]

Obscure reference of the day.

I'm sorry Tim, I'm just not following you anymore.

It appears you are saying:

The Bush administration was too hard on Williams.
The Energy sector is all crooks and cost Tulsa.
Therefor Bush is a socialist.


I totally dont get it.  Are you having four separate arguments:  
1) Bush was too hard on Williams and therefor a socialist
2) Bush is too pro business
3) Inhofe let Williams swinging in the wind and screwed Tulsa
4) The Energy industry is a bunch of thieves

I dont understand how 1 & 2 reconcile, nor how 1 or 3 can be said in the same breath as 4.  Nor, for that matter, how the FERC, SEC, or the Vatican investigating Williams has anything to do with Hillary being a socialist.

To continue the digression of this thread, I think Smurfet was a transvestite.  I mean, Im fine with that, its her choice and everyone knows her brothers needed the company.  But I think she was.   Just sayin'.

Don't worry.  All will be revealed when Timmy takes off his mask and we see that it's just Aox.

Trying to debate three people at once is bound to lead to confusion.  Especially when all three are coming at one with a different angle.

I just wanted to take the opportunity to bash the do-nothing GOP elected officials for whistling while Williams Cos. lost billions in dollars and thousands of Tulsans lost their jobs.  That drum beats loud and clear.

That's usually what happens when someone jumps in over their head and doesn't realize it till too late.  They try to bamboozle you with a bunch of irrelevant B.S. to cover up the fact they have no idea what they are talking about.

That's a classic!

[tim huntzinger]

Nope.  Wrong again. Not over my head.  I just know that an elected official with a pair would have defended Williams against the false allegations.  The cowards did not do a thing and a great Tulsa company was brought to the point of bankruptcy.
