Get a man in the derrick, hook up the kelly, and start turning to the right, boys.
"Ladies and Gentlemen...Please, START YOUR DRILLS!"
May we get a gusher with the first one!
Toomey would have voted correctly.
That's true.
I guess someone who is totally clueless could say that about any raw material or even a finished product.
And so what is it that they process at the refineries at Cherry Point, Washington? Show proofs, not rumors.

ANWR will create thousands of jobs and will increase our oil production by at least 1 million barrel a day.

I got a refinery right down the street, oh wait, I am in Alaska, and it is a local refinery, that is causing me to pay 2.07 a gal. Can't believe that we are finally cheaper than CA, and most of the Lower 48.
