What is clearly needed is the US drilling and refining the vast oil reserves we have in ANWR, the Gulf, the Pcific, and the oil shales. That will end the manipulation by OPEC and other nations, which is the real issue here.
If we were serious about going after these reserves (meaning putting the kabosh via executive order as a result of national security on the endless delays caused over done environemtal regulations) we would see the fuel from the ANWR and Gulf and Pacific fiekds within two years.
Just announcing that we were dead serious about this and then proceeding with it would see OPEC immediately cut ts prices drastically to try and make it economically unfeasable for us.
All of this hogwash about ten years, and not impacting OPEC are just that...hogwash...and Obama and his handlers know it.
THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA
If gasoline gets to $8 dollars per gallon this Summer, the Obama Love Affair will be over. Lofty ideals are great on paper and in speeches but a hurting wallet speaks louder.
Drill now, keep jobs and $$$ in America for America.
If you like $5/gal, Thank Congress.
Pray for W and Our Troops
I heard on TV this morning that the USA is using 6% of its land for drilling and a paltry 2% of its coastal waters. We are crazy for paying through the nose to placate some enviro-nazis at the expense of our nation’s economy.
Shame on any politician who would ruin this country for campaign contributions from the Sierra Club and George Soros.
Washington Post has Barry wrong on Iraq and now wrong on energy. We may see the devil order a parka when the WaPo issues its endorsement for the 2008 Presidential race.
G’night all!
