Although many news articles have used this claim and title, the actual report this based upon includes ALL liquid energy sources. So the number to get above Saudi Arabia includes Natural Gas Liquids, Ethanol, Bio-Diesel, etc.
The ethanol, biodiesel and “other” sources require the use of imported crude oil NOT derived from US owned resources. This article is doubly bull crap when this is combined with complete blocking of access to primary crude sources by the greenie communists in charge.
