The irony is thick. We always hear the left scream bloody murder over the loss of manufacturing jobs, yet they won’t let domestic oil companies drill for oil on/in US soils/seas.
We can. Use the D.R.I.P. policy:
D on't
R e-elect
I ncumbent
P oliticians
The nutless wonders in congress will never allow it. Mark my words, this nation will be brought to its knees before congress critters allow drilling there.
Because he cannot find his spine.
I know...I've made a point so many times, I've decided to put it in my tagline.
For DemocRATs saying you have a plan and actually having a plan are two different things. Oh, THAT PLAN!
We can. Use the D.R.I.P. policy:
We are too stupid for such.
We honestly deserve the politicians and problems we have.
People...you have to realize...our Congress critters don’t give a rat’s *ss about everyday Americans...The people we’ve elected time and time and time again to their cusshy little positions have become nothing more than “professional politicians” whose only concern and worry in the world is getting re-elected...As soon as one election is over, they are campaigning for the next...they lie and smile and tell you what they think you want to hear, then go about doing what they do best... take care of each other...you mean nothing to them but for one day every two to four years...election day....
Vote OUT the incumbents and tell the next batch to do something for the people or they are history also...
Our founders are retching in their graves at what we’ve allowed to happen to the system they gave us....
MAN UP!!!! Take back our country....
The time to drill ANWR was 10 years ago.
The GOP nominee is against drilling in ANWAR. He says it’s ‘pristine’ and shouldn’t be destroyed....
Use “Google Earth” and go take a look at this “pristine” area....If rock, sand, ice and snow are “pristine” then that’s it...Oh, in the “summer” there is short grasses...
oh, Boonie, I get it. It’s McCain who doesn’t.
Bio-Fuels- NO! Unless we can made cellulosic ethanol work with bio material NOT used for food.
CTL (coal-to-liquid) - YES! We are going to have to do this anyway so why not get started now.
GTL (gas-to-liquid) YES! Same as CTL above.
NUCLEAR- YES! YES! YES! We need a ambitious program NOW! This is far and away the most important thing we can now do!
SOLAR- YES, if it can survive without subsidies.
WIND- YES (see SOLAR above).
CONSERVATION- Yes within limits. Most people are already conserving as much as they can. We have already picked the fruit from the low branches of the tree on conservation. When the vast majority of people purchase their next vehicle it will probably be one which gets very good gas mileage.
POLITICAL/LEADERSHIP- Please stop listening to movie stars, the Sierra Club, Al Gore and other assorted idiots on the issue of energy. Do not listen to political leaders from corn growing states. Listen to good scientists and engineers who have a background in energy.
I ran across this article today explaining how Alaska plans to force drilling in ANWR.

Oil production from Sourdough wells might impel feds to lease in ANWR
ADJACENT: Reservoir seems to extend beneath the refuge.
This guy needs to be running the Republican Party, instead of the pantywaist RINOs of the past 10 years.
Going to take more than just ANWR. Oil is a global commodity and right now it will take something like 1 million BPD to push prices down. Probably be several million BPD before we could get the first well online even if an executive order was signed today.
This all makes sense, but does nothing to create a hold over the people by the politicians so don’t hold your breath for any of it to take place...
If it’s good for the people, but does nothing for the politician, it won’t be done...
What news conference? The press has not reported a word about it so how could he have had a news conference. Surely you have this mixed up with a shark bite.(Off Sark)
