Who said anything about "alternate" energy sources? We drill for our own oil that we are currently prohibited from pumping because of tree-hugger regulations.

Sory, but we just don't have the reserves to match demand. We will continue to import most of our oil. Developing whatever oil supplies exist in the US will take years, even if the environmentalists can be overcome.

We've got more oil fields identified than you realize. You also underestimate the capabilities of this country when faced with a crisis.

So far in this war on terror, the American people haven't had to make real sacrifices. If the Mid East becomes fully involved in war, we will have to sacrifice, but we will also do anything necessary to meet and overcome the challenges.
