Bass was on H&C tonite. His main arguement was, that in the 70`s is that the issue was decided during the Jimma administration, therefore, in stone.

This guy doesn`t even qualify as a RHINO.
Let him know how you feel

There are rules, you know.

1. Stop giving money to the RNC, RNCC, and RSC immediately if you are called. This makes it harder for them to keep funding these RINO campaigns like Specter.

2. Give money to their primary opponents or thru Club for Growth, they support real conservatives.

3. Work on primary opponents campaigns if possible.

[Merrkin]

We're clearly on a roll these last couple months. I PITY those DEMONcrats.

[Rabble]

"1) The Republicans, who are blocking America from using the 10.4 billion barrels of oil in ANWR"

There is nothing in the bill to insure that the oil recovered in the ANWR will be sold only on the U.S. markets! The oil companies will sell said oil on the international oil market to maximize their profits as demanded by their shareholders.

It is estimated by U.S. government energy dept. agencies that it will be ten years until any oil from the refuge will be available on any market.

[TexasTransplant]

Your solution then is to roll over?

I'm not wired that way, I prefer to join the battle.

Patton would have made an example of a coward like you.

Better get started then.

[Rabble]

I never said that I was against drilling in the ANWF! I have simply stated the facts in the matter. Would you like to kill me, as the messenger?

Personal attacks are what DemoncRats are known for.

There is nothing in the bill to insure that the oil recovered in the ANWR will be sold only on the U.S. markets!

The sentate just passed a bill sponsored by Wyden that requires the oil from ANWR to be sold in US markets.

But the Senate adopted an amendment offered by James M. Talent (R-Mo.) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) that bans exports of any oil produced in ANWR by a vote of 83-16.

"It is estimated by U.S. government energy dept. agencies that it will be ten years until any oil from the refuge will be available on any market."

Yes, and it was proposed over 10 years ago and the oil could have been flowing this very day.

Moreover, to start drilling would have a psychological impact on OPEC - in a positive way for us.

[Rabble]

Thanks for the update. This is very good news!

[Rabble]

"Moreover, to start drilling would have a psychological impact on OPEC - in a positive way for us."

Your point is well taken - an aspect not to be taken lightly!

[sruleoflaw]

Thank you a lot. Excellent advice. I, too, give money to The Club for Growth --- and we need to purge a few of these anti-ANWR RINO's to help them see the light.

[sruleoflaw]

So what if it takes 10 years before we get our first oil from ANWR. If Clinton hadn't vetoed this measure in 1995, we would have oil flowing from ANWR today -- more than 1 million barrels per day, ENOUGH to cover what we lost during Katrina.

You are wrong on the issue of where the oil will go. "The oil won't necessarily go to the U.S." story is an old yarn. Some people used to claim the North Slope oil went to Japan. That was bunk. About 90-95 percent of the North Slope oil went to the U.S. and I assume you didn't hear about the amendment added to the ANWR legislation not to sell the oil abroad.

[TexasTransplant]

My response (in retrospect) does seem to be a bit harsh, my apologies.

If we don't start producing more we don't get to have a say, so the only way that we wean ourselves off of dependency is to produce, even if it goes somewhere else, we will have the trade and the infrastructure in place.

I just wish we could slap the enviro weanies down, let them ride bicycles and live in mud huts, I have better things to do.

TO CORRECT THE RECORD: I said the San Jose Mercury News did not run either of my letters-to-the-editor (the ones in the thread). Well, yesterday I had called them to complain about both my letters being blocked. Today's SJ Mercury News contains the November letter, so one of my letters did make it. I wanted to correct the record because when the MSM gets one right, I'll give them credit.
