As I’ve said for years, becoming energy independent (drill here, drill now) is not merely a matter of economics.Absolutely correct and very important.It is a matter of national security.
This article shows that Iraq is taking Obama's lead. To bad he isn't leading from behind on this one.
The original attack on 911 in 2001 was an attack on our financial system by Osama.

This treasonous administration continues to do all it can to weaken our great country, The United States of Almerica.

There is a school of thought (that may be right) which says the reason that Saudi Arabia and others are acting up is that they see the end of the oil money, and want to position themselves to survive after they can no longer use the US to fight their wars.
In other words, becoming energy independent may be creating unrest.
