They need to invite Hillary Clinton to come on and explain the futures markets to them.

It could easily have “no effect” on the world price of oil, while at the same time substantially reducing the US price of oil. If we use our own oil instead of foreign oil, then that will improve the balance of trade and increase the value of the dollar, which will in turn reduce the price of oil to US buyers.

Not only that, but if we drill at ANWR or offshore, then the oil companies will have to pay a royalty to the US government, which will increase government revenue without increasing taxes.

It’s a win-win, and the guys who are trying to say otherwise simply don’t understand economics.

Bunch of lemmings. This silly mantra of more supply won't reduce costs goes against every thread of logic and makes these goats look silly.

Get everyone to sign the American Sollutions, "Drill Here, Drill Now" petition.
Join the 1,333,011 people who have signed the petition.

Tuned out of Fox News about a year ago. Once in a while I may tune in for a few minutes. After a few minutes I see why I tuned out. To call Fox News conservative is a joke. Maybe their conservative compared to MSNBC and CNN. However, they still lean left of center.

That would be the weekend hosts filling in for Steve & Brian...they are sooooooooo dull and uninformed. I heard Dave say that it would take five years.

How about the Fox Biz guy on the "service" segment...he said that young people join the military today for purely selfish reasons being that they only want to attack and kill militant Islamists. I hit rewind three times to make sure I heard that correctly.

Vote with your remote.

Tune out FOX and unsubscribe, that’s what I did when FOX decided to backstab Duncan Hunter during the primaries and I don’t miss Rupert Murdoch’s morning blather one damn bit.

The point isn’t whether it will lower prices right away. It doesn’t take a genius or economic girly men to figure that out. Ask these people where we might be had clinton not vetoed the anwar bill. It’s a start and that’s all. We still have to get past the congressional ban on OSDrilling.

So no opinion other than your own should be allowed? I think you are fast approaching the liberal mindset with that kind of thinking.

“Digging for diamonds won’t lower the price of diamonds so - despite the fact that you have diamonds on your property - you shouldn’t dig them out. Instead, when diamonds are at an all time high, buy your diamonds from a foreign source. Export as much money as humanly possible so that foreign entities can buy up U.S. landmarks like the Chrysler building (and the mortgage on your house by bailing out banks).

“While you are busy exporting trillions of dollars to buy diamonds, work hard to make diamonds obsolete through new technology. That way, all of the potential trillions you have in diamonds of your own eventually becomes worthless as you let them rot in the ground.”

BRILLIANT!

(I’ll just keep repeating this analogy until it someone other than the addressee reads it and catches on. ;-))

Just saw this on lonestartimes.com. Sometimes simple graphics are the most powerful.
