WASHINGTON — Controlling high gas prices promises to be a major issue in the 8th Congressional District race, with voters nationally and in the state naming it a top priority.

Recent national polls have shown a majority of Americans now favor increased oil exploration in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and along coastal areas.

Psst, not too loud, did anyone tell Steve Kagen about this?
In the 8th district race, Republican challenger John Gard of Suamico held a town hall meeting Wednesday in Green Bay to discuss his plan to help decrease gas prices, and his opponent, U.S. Rep. Steve Kagen, D-Appleton, has spoken out on the subject. Many residents Wednesday said the issues surrounding oil prices will factor into whom they vote for.

"This is a top priority for me," said Lois Halonen of Green Bay. "Gas prices keep going up, and nobody's doing anything about it."

Jay Kumm of Green Bay echoed Halonen's concerns.

Lois, you are so right. The "nobody's doing anything about it." is do nothing Steve Kagen. Can you believe this. Even Ellyn from the P G staff is finally doing some accurate journalism. We are finally hearing what real people are saying about higher gas prices. It takes John Gard to open peoples eyes. Good going John.

Wait a minute, this gets better, read this. This is from our do nothing but talk 8th district congressman

Kagen and other Democrats are calling for the Bush administration to sell a portion of the oil in the government's Strategic Petroleum Reserve.


Kagen and the dems say we have no supply problems, then why do they want to release oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve? What the H E double L are they talking about.

And now, the quote of the day from who else, Steve Kagen!

"It's not a long-term solution, but it's something to help people keep their heads above water," Kagen said.


Say what?This is a home run commercial for somebody to run. even nationally, a liberal dem telling you to keep your head above water, HOLY COW!

People of the 8th district, your in water up to your neck, your hands are above your head, In one hand you have an empty red gasoline can, in the other you have a gas pump with no hose!

Steve Kagen is standing over you and does nothing but talk to you! Can you just hear Steve Kagen say, You'll be o k, you stay there until we get other environmentally safer solutions. Now don't worry. you won't drown, I'm your congressman. Remember my campaign slogan, "Together We Will" get through this.

Steve Kagen has been talking lately about more drilling.

O k Steve, as my father would always say, S _ _ _ ( crap ) or get off the pot"

Will anyone in the press ask him two specific questions?

Steve Kagen, will you vote yes to drilling in ANWR?

Steve Kagen, will you vote yes on off shore drilling along our shores?

Somebody, anybody, please ask him!

People of the 8th district, Steve Kagen will do nothing but keep your head above water. John Gard will get us lower fuel prices while we work on other fuel alternatives. John Gard will vote yes to AVWR, vote yes to off shore drilling. If you give Steve Kagen your vote this fall he will watch you drown in higher fuel prices and smile all the way to Washington.

It's time to send Steve Kagen back to private practice.
