Too bad we didn’t open Anwar ten years ago, but Libs blocked it then and they’re still blocking it.
The liberals have the potential to be owned by anyone other than an American Conservative. They hate the guts of anyone
of WASP conservative background. They would go to bed with Bin Laden before they would ask a conservative to dinner.
And it’s further bad that we have such an inept party that it cannot get the message out to the people complaining about gas prices while returning those same Libs to office.
Until such time as we use existing technology to produce oil from coal, and shale, and protect those industries from another low-balling of the oil supply price (re. the opening of OPEC’s spigots to destroy the fledgling “Synfuels” attempt of the early 80’s) we will always be hostage to the world price for oil on the open market.
:-QUIZ TIME-: What would happen if we placed a $50/barrel minimum price (not a tariff, but an addition to the actual cost for any oil purchased from offshore at less than $50/barrel) on all oil imported to the country. and required that we keep American oil for American's until such time as we meet our domestic needs from our domestic sources??
...and start an assembly line to build reactors. Even if the worst estimates of the liberals had been right and ANWR would be now running out of oil, we would still be celebrating energy independence today.
ANWR was killrd by
bill
ANWR was killed by Bill Clinton - passed by both houses and vetoed by the billster.
SO when you start paying 4+ USD per gallon, and you will, remeber to thank the Clintons.

Too bad we didn't stop wasting energy ten years ago.
And when Anwar runs out, where do we drill?
And when that runs out, where?
And after we've sucked all the oil out of planet earth and pillaged all natural places, then you'll talk about conservation?
Too bad we didn't end immigration forty-two years ago.
Because we'd now have half as many people and twice as much oil for everybody.
