Kerry doesn't want drilling in ANWR to reduce dependence on foreign oil but he wants to release the strategic oil reserves (to bring down gasoline prices) which are foreign oil.

ANWR = enough oil to run the country for several decades.

Strategic oil reserves = enough oil to run the country for a week or two.

It's months, not decades. We're still going off the cliff in 3-13 years. 3-12.5 years without ANWR.

Yep, and ANWR is just ONE source in the US. Its main advantage is that it is on land; lower exploration costs and shorter timetable to access the crude. We have a s#@*load of oil off shore, but it takes time and significantly money to get get to it. ANWR is also a significant source of natural gas...
