Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani on Wednesday said everything has to be considered if the United States wants to break its reliance on foreign oil, including more drilling off Florida's coast.
Calling the energy supply a major domestic problem, Giuliani said the nation needs to focus on nuclear power production and renewable energy sources. In the meantime it also needs to see what oil can be tapped, he said.
"Energy independence means everything has to be open for discussion," Giuliani said when asked about offshore drilling. "The idea of having more oil under our command, so to speak, or within our orbit probably for some period of time is going to be important. The ultimate goal, however, should be renewable sources of energy."

Watching it now.
So then, you agree with Rudy that Abortion is a Constitutional Right?
-—”Getting off of our dependence on foreign oil”-—
Then Hitlery’s your girl! She talks about the need to not be dependent on foriegn oil ALL the TIME.
“So then, you agree with Rudy that Abortion is a Constitutional Right?”
Why don’t answer the initial question in post #13?
So I guess OPEC is your favorite to rule the country!

Then how do you explain this?!
CBS 5 Poll: Clinton, Giuliani Hold Leads In Calif.
"Giuliani continues to lead McCain among Pro-Choice voters and among Pro-Life voters; Giuliani continues to lead among both those who support and those who oppose same-sex marriage; Giuliani continues to lead among those who are for stem-cell research and those against it; Giuliani continues to lead among those who own guns and those who don't; Giuliani continues to lead among those who think the USA needs a military draft and among those who think the USA does not; and Giuliani continues to lead in union households and in non-union households.
Only on the issue of Global Warming is there movement worthy of comment, according to our pollsters. Those who think Global Warming is "made-up" have moved away from McCain to Giuliani. Those who think Global Warming is "real" have moved to McCain.
Support of an issue that's been conjured up by far-left environmentalists and refuted by science is incompatible with any domestic energy strategy.
Getting off of our dependence on foreign oil transcends whether you believe in global warming or not.
Everyone, including Rudy's friends in the Democratic Party, concludes that we need to curb our dependence on foreign oil. How will Rudy accomplish this? Since he supports global warming, that means he wants to pursue more "alternative" energies that simply aren't feasible. Of course he wants domestic energy exploration. He just wants to do it the liberal and politically-correct way.
We are too dependent on Arab and Venezuelan oil. Rudy is RIGHT ON with this one.
Rudy is wrong, as he is on all the issues except for the WOT.
Somehow I think everyone voting against this would be publically embarassed by President Guiliani, the American People who know exactly who to thank for the high cost of fuel.
I don't happen to be a zealot but let me see if I can answer that for you. When is it necessary to give a woman a partial birth abortion(Rudy supports the act and the taxpayer funding for this) in the case of rape? Let me know when you come up with an inteligent answer for that.
The real poll is the GOP primaries, not some numbers pulled out of some CBS executive’s rear.
Very nicely done by Mitt! The hair did not move one bit! ;-) (only teasing you). He did very well.
Hillary TALKS abuot it, but offers NO realistic plan of any kind.
Rudy DOES offer a very realistic, sensible plan: drill for oil domestically, build lots of nuke plants NOW.
The guy is talking....but he is not saying much of anything.
You won't understand this but I will try. I would have the baby yes. Sorry that offends you. Of course you do know that the circumstance you use is the ultra extreme example.
Now you answer mine.
He could use all the babies he wants dead, and the puppies his wife killed to make oil through the thermal depolymerization process.
Before you run off in 3 directions at once shaking your pom poms, keep in kind talk is cheap, and your dealing with an electorate that votes based on emotion and not sound reasoning.
also here’s a little article to read and weigh its offerings amidst the current envirowacko age we live in..
Experts say switching to nuclear may be expensive
Industry must manage itself much better than in past, Berkeley researcher says

The whole point is that Rudy did NOT utter the word CONSERVATION, because he knows that conservation means cutting back on the economy — he wants to provide the energy the economy needs with realistic options, such as drilling in ANWR and offshore and developing nuclear plants.
Do you disagree with this?
Only an idiot would vote for Giuliani.
Did you see the photo I sent you on the other thread? His hair did move at least once! Yes, he did very well.
