So much for subduing the earth.

Lets see if we can raise the minimum wage another 2 or 3 bucks while we are at it.

See? He IS a compassionate conservative. He’s compassionate to all the little floras and faunas in Alaska; and maybe to his cronies’ business interests.

Those of us who need to be able to buy gasoline for less than $4.00 a gallon? Not so much.

[MNJohnnie]

Can anyone anywhere explain to me what possible reason the USA has, other then a totally goofy Govt Energy policy of “Conservation, not Consumption” for producing less oil right now then it did 20 years ago????

Why despite a decade of ever increasing world demand for Oil do we produce less now then we did in 2000?

Past time everyone in DC get a pink slip from the American people.

Where’s the balance in this “balanced approach”?

[Man50D]

This has nothing to do with the environment. It's socialism once again rearing its ugly head using the environment as one of many methods to destroy our Representative Democracy and replace it with socialism.

The pristine ANWR tundra that Bush and the Senate have locked up. Yeah, it looks like it's worth saving...

[Condor51]

The area, the North Slope's biggest freshwater lake, is considered potentially rich in oil and gas as well as a critical habitat for migrating birds and caribou.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh, caribou again!!!
I'm getting to the point that I want to see every caribou - DEAD!

[The Great RJ]

Bush goes to the Saudi’s to beg for more oil only to be snubbed and now refuses to allow drilling on US soil. We have no reason to complain about high gasoline prices as we are brining them on ourselves by such idiotic policies.

[gridlock]

Everytime they do something like this, the price goes up.

[Sybeck1]

Get ready for $10 a gallon gas. How long before people storm congress?

thanks and bookmark for use

Here’s my theory: The Saudis and other Arab countries have promised EVERYONE in Washington a retirement with $1 Billion in a Swiss bank account.

Any reporters doing ANYTHING to investigate the oceans of dirty money in Washington?

[TomGuy]

And yet the loyalist Pubbies continue to blame the mean ole Democrats.

Wonder how the voters will feel about this when they are paying out of their pockets for $4+/gal gas, double-digit grocery price increases, skyrocketing utility bills.

The ole ‘blame the Dem Congress’ game just lost about 99 points.

[cake_crumb]

Hmmm....so what this boils down to is that a SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT area will be leased for oil exploration. However, the brain dead bashers are probably already here.

[Red Badger]

Arctic wetlands?..........an oxymoron from the morons who are lacking oxy................

[SoFloFreeper]

Just get used to $5.00 gallon gas. That’s the way it will be until our federal government gets their heads out of their @sses. In other words, never.

[iopscusa]

Beware of the ROOTERS headline...never, ever trust a Lieberal!

[Current Occupant]

Cap and Trade, carbon credits, no drill, no new refineries seems to be not a smart way to independence.

Maybe time for the top talkers to spend more time on these topics and less time on the three losers running for POTUS. We’re so screwed.

See tagline.
