Bushbots :
Give me an intelligent reason that Bush cannot go on national TV today with the following agenda :
We must stop our dependence on foreign oil.
Arab nations are not hospitable to a relationship of peace and trade.
We can stop this by opening up all areas to oil exploration.
This may affect the lives of a few animals, but it will save the lives of many soldiers and US citizens.
We will not needlessly kill animals, but we must save families.
Democrats, led by Tom Daschle, are prohibiting us from exploring these areas for oil...
I give your man a receipe for guaranteed re-election.
Now explain to me why he won't do it.
He won't.
You might get an intelligent reason why Bush cannot if you started with an intelligent sentence :-)
See, as the leading producer of technology - we'll create the first real solutions to the oil problem...
Essentially we need to move people in cars or similar vehicles without oil, which may eventually run out.
We are not drilling MANY areas due to environmental and scenic regulations... seriously.... check it out, you'd be amazed...
It's a political problem - but only for a creature of Politics.
I'm not a Republican. But I'm willing to give Bush a political chance. Perhaps Bush merely has bad advisors.
Openly rebuke and refute the environazis.
And if you need an advisor, call me :)

No, he won't. That would make too much sense.
They don't call them The Stupid Party for nothing, you know.
Except of course to say that idjuts like Jar Jar Binks here, sits in his armchair, and accuses one of the most courageous Presidents we have ever had of being spineless!! LOL!! Maroons!!
Evidently for the better.
Oil, National Security, and ANWR: Some Really Good Reasons Why We Need to Drill Now!
...Environmentalists who make the argument against drilling in ANWR made similar arguments more than 20 years ago about the trans-Alaska oil pipeline and drilling near Prudhoe Bay. They said that a tunnel had to be built under the causeway that stretched from land to the drilling platform 200 yards away, because environmentalists said fish were not smart enough to swim around it. They also stated that there had to be two tunnels, one with lights so fish could see where they were going and one without lights for fish who would be frightened by the lights. As a result, two tunnels were built, one with lights and one without lights and in the end, the fish could easily swim around the tunnels and were indifferent to the light and dark tunnels.
Environmentalists also said that caribou were too fearful to walk under the Alaskan pipeline. As a result, costly caribou bridges were built so that caribou could walk over the pipeline. Today, caribou walk under the pipeline unconcerned and caribou herds surrounding the pipeline region have multiplied as the pipeline provides a source of heat in the winter.
