I do not know what kind of bug crawled into your coffee but you seem to have a bone, quarrel, vendetta and hidden agenda to pick with T. Boone Pickens because he agreed with a very small part of something said by the dastardly enemy.
I do wish you would quit with the Gotcha game.
You keep going back and saying you have to convince me of an oil shortage.
What part of my posting, “We have a shortage of American oil production” do you not understand?
Yes, I will repeat, we do have a shortage of American oil and yes, a hell bent drilling program will alleviate in the short term our so-called current manufactured energy crisis.
However, as I have tried repeatedly to point out, it is pure foolishness for anyone to believe that a full-bore drilling program will alleviate our long-term energy needs.
Nancy Pelosie and the naïveté Obama Democrats want to drill for our oil needs in the 700 million barrel Strategic Petroleum Reserve to cure our problems.
What the US needs is a concerted effort using ALL energy sources (Wind, Solar, Nuclear, Coal, Hydrogen, Hydroelectric and Oil) to make us truly energy independent from foreign oil.
Because T. Boone or any person (God Forbid) who says anything that agrees with anyone not deemed a pure conservative by you and some other anti T. Boone posters to be an acceptable source, shows reluctance on your and their part not to take good advice positively.
As for judging you as to your Christianity, I am not.
I just thought it was odd that someone using your religious log in name would be so abrupt with another Freeper.
I was pointing out that some self-avowed Saintly Christians Turn Off sinners and other not so secure Christians with their Sister Bertha Better Than You, Amen Pew, In The First Self Righteous Church religious fervor.
Just my lowly opinion and nothing more, Amen.
You apparently didn't read my #98 closely enough. I differentiate between short term and long term, and assert that drilling (and refining) can solve our short term supply problem, which is a only a few million barrels a day.

It's clear that you were. You are only fooling yourself to say otherwise. Then in this last reply, you say:

which makes it even more clear that you are judging me. When you accuse someone of being self righteous, you are saying that they are not righteous because of the sacrifice and shed blood of Jesus. That is a judgment that is not yours to make.
