In 2001, when G.W. Bush first proposed drilling in ANWR, Democrats heaped scorn upon the idea.

"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.

There is no doubt that we should be drilling ANWR but even if we could get production going next week, it would not have enough impact to drop the price of oil more than a dollar a barrel.
