Please God give us the ANWR drilling. The caribou will love it and this thirsty superpower can have some much neeeded oil. Imagine how much we could find in Alaska if New England senators didn't block it for reasons that don't go beyond an environmental fantasy?

Unfortunately, the maximum estimated reserves of ANWR would only reduce our dependence on foreign oil by 6% -- in 2020. We need to consider steps that might have a more immediate effect. (The source of my information is the Energy Information Administration of the Department of Energy -- I posted an illustrative graph yesterday and can link to it if you want me to.)

Agreed but 6 % is better than 0%, and we need to get started. I suspect there's lots more where that came from, if we would get real. I love the environment and nature but being afraid to extract some oil from an area 1/3 the size of the lower U.S. is absurd. The enviros are just full of it.

note to Democrats...

A COMMUNIST is a COMMUNIST...

Even if you call it...PROGRESSIVE...

Even if you call it...LIBERAL...

Even if you call it...SOCIAL DEMOCRACY...



You can paint the car, but it will always be a VOLVO, no matter how many times you claim it to be a Caddy.
