3% of the world’s oil.

3 points:

#1--It's amazing what the US (and only the US) can do with so little.. With 3% we contribute %25 percent to the world's GDP, growth, innovation, etc.

#2--we're trying to increase that 3% contribution to 5 or 10 percent.

#3 --Do the POS Dems suggest other countries are better, safer, more responsible than we are when it comes to supplying oil. Do they want to leave and entrust the dirty work to other countries that clearly can't handle it. Look at China's air.

Did John Cary mean "proven" oil reserves or actual oil production? The US Department of Energy says we're the world's #3 producer of oil. Doesn't this speak volumes about the US oil industry's technological competitiveness? Doesn't this deserve at least a mention on the Sunday talk shows? Sheesh.
