Some in Congress advocate opening the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve buffer zone to oil company operations; they are reviled for the thought.

Big Oil profits tremendously when demand exceeds supply.
The ANWR enviro-obstructionists are merely useful idiots, helping Big Oil to keep the price at the pump jacked-up.
The Bush Administration and the GOP "leadership" may pay lip service to conservative demands for more domestic production. But you'd be foolish to believe them.
In a "green" pickle, Reichert edges away from Arctic drilling (Key vote switches to dems)

Having a degree in Economics, I have no problem with Oil Companies and their huge profits. Does the word "Retained Earnings" mean anything to those who scream price fixing, etc. Now that prices have dropped, wouldn't it be wise to conserve even more, thusly keeping the supply high and the price low?.............duh..........

"But without institutional memory, critics seem again ready to fall back on the old, failed policies and "do something" no matter what the result may be."

Democrats DEPEND on the lack of 'institutional memory' and the overwelming desire to reap benefits from class/race conflicts.
