All worth Jack Schytt if we don't get any refineries.
Bush already signed approval for a new refinery as part of the energy bill.. yes we need more, but reality is the era of Greenies stranglholding energy is over.
We buy about 10% of our refined products from other nations.. which means if we aren't depending on foreign crude, and simply refined product, we can get that from other nations that won't need middle east oil either...
The Shale reserves are larger than ALL the oil reserves in the middle east combined if memory serves. America domestically will never need to depend on off continent crude or refined product again if the leaders properly handle this situation.
The middle east can go to provide India and China, until its depleated, and let them deal with the hornets nest over there in the next 100 years... and trust me, they won't be so generous socially or fiscally as the US has been to that area for the last 100 years.
