Keep it up.<BR/><BR/>Let us also mention the fact that since we can't drill in our own backyard, our dollars are going elsewhere depleting a prosperous economy that won't be so prosperous in a few years. All because of oil. I hate hearing politicians saying things like, "We don't need to drill, we just need to put our money into alternative energy. Well, alternative energy is still a long way off. I remember my economics professor saying in College in 1973 that nuclear fusion was only 20 years away. Now I hear they won't be able to provide that source of energy until we mine Hydrogen3 from the moon and bring it back here. Let me guess that we can't expect that for what... maybe a hundred years. I for one don't believe all the alternative energy crap. It ain't gonna happen for 20, 30 or 40 years. We have three trillion barrels of shale oil in this country and we can't go get it. And, I agree with you on Anwar. Gee, when is the last time you visited there. Since it is 3 million acres and oil is only on a few thousand acres does it make sense to just take that part out of the preserve and give em several thousand acres on the other end. As for drilling offshore, it is not to be touched to save the environment. Do you think our environmental protection agency is going to dictate to China how they must protect the environment in Florida. Again, ain't gonna happen. The Chinese will have oil floating all over the Gulf of Mexico in no time flat. What a bunch of losers this country has in Congress.<BR/><BR/>Enough of my ranting. Thanks for getting me back on a roll.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01508484474922218417noreply@blogger.com
