Where is all that oil from Iraq. We can blame Clinton for this mess when he sent Richardson to the Saudis and negoated price for oild.

It was 22.00 a barrel then and running just fine, everyone was happy. Clinton believed 35.00 was more fair to allow the russians to pay back its debt (it didn't) and Richardson, took a great system and screwed everyone.

I moved to the states a short time ago after spending 30 years in Alaska, '73-'03. You would really have to look hard up there to find ANYONE, native or white who is opposed to drilling in ANWAR. The main obstructionists are people who have never been there and have no idea what it is like other than the phony photos they see from "save the wilderness" morons. One of the favorite Alaskan bumper stickers for years has been one that reads: "Please God, grant us another pipeline. We promise not to piss it all away this time."

Actually, I kind of like the idea of using up other countrie's resources first. We do need to have our own sources though in case they stop supplying or jack up the prices.
