I simply cannot understand how it is not one of our highest national priorities to drill more oil in the U.S. and off the coasts. I cannot understand why we are not on a war footing to undertake this critical national task.
Here's the deal. We can win all the wars we want but what good does it do when we are transferring all our assets over to the enemy? And then, they turn around and use all those dollars we sent to them and fund terrorism around the globe and buy up key businesses and finance university research for their own nefarious purposes. They don't have to create anything, they simply, and legally, buy it all from us...to use against us.
Why does no one get this. In the day where everything is labeled a “crisis”. This is a genuine crisis. If not stopped we WILL pay a severe national price in about one generation.
My understanding is the following:
Amount of U.S. oil consumption that comes from the Middle East: only three percent from Iraq and Kuwait. The rest of our imported oil comes from places like Canada, Venezuela, Mexico, Nigeria, Algeria, Ecuador, and England.
venezuela is an enemy. Not sure about the others. I know that iran and others in the ME benefit from high oil prices, but my understanding is that we are not buying a lot of oil from our enemies in the middle east.
“In my view VDH get it exactly right. We have done some good things and have, by and large, won the war militarily. For some inexplicable reason however we continue to ignore the fact that we are transferring billions and billions of dollars to our enemies every month through oil revenue.

You, sir, have read my mind and expressed my thoughts more eloquently than I could have. Thank you.
