[Vision2020] There's Oil in Them Thar Trees

[lfalen]

I dont' know how you figure. I think most people already have their tires inflate appropriately. Very few people are going to miss this opportunity to reduce their gas bill. If we had drilled 10 years ago we would now have the oil and not all people think  it would take that long. We need ti dril here and dril now. We need to have a concentrated effort to explore all possibilities  for developing all available sources and also all alternative energy sources. We need to get off oil and the sooner the better. In the mean while develop what we know is there. Anwar is the size of several western sate. Where they want to dril is the size of a football field. That will hot harm the polar bears any more than the pipeline did the moose. To not dril is stupid regardless of whether Obama, McCain or anyone else is opposed to it.  Russia is drilling in the Artic and other countries are drilling offshore. We are stupid not to do like wise. You seem bound and determined to make the US int!
 o a 3rd
world country and or put us back to pre horse and buggy days.
