"We won't be getting any oil for TEN YEARS!" they howled.
So they stopped it. And now it is almost 7 years later.
We could have been 3 years away from a massive influx of new oil. Please remind your fellow citizens that it was the Democrat Party which made sure we would be importing the same amount of oil from Saudi Arabia instead of from Alaska. Ask them if that is something they admire or disdain. Ask them to remember that on Election Day 2008.
