You actually think America could become self sufficient in terms of oil by doing more drilling off of the US coast and in ANWR?
Just by drilling? No. Include coal, include nuclear, include tidal power, hydro-electric. Put wind farms on Kennedy's grave site if they generate energy at a reasonable price.
But EVERY energy project is opposed by the eco weenies. Can't build wind farms, the birds fly into the blades... can't use tidal basin turbines, it might harm the seaweed, can't damn the rivers, etc etc. Bunch of useless fucking weenies.
Wow, yer dumb.
Glass houses, prick.
Canada, fer example, sells America more oil than the entire ME.
And with slant drilling, huge amounts of that would be available from within the US. He he he.
If America had taken the concept of energy independence seriously when Carter first addressed the issue then perhaps more alternative energy sources woulda been in place by now
If that ass-clown carter could have lead a fucking parade, maybe he would have deserved a first term. And, if he wasn't so completely useless, he could have done more than tell people to wear a sweater.
... but America fucked up and elected Reagan. Twice.
Morons.
Thank GOD. Our country was in HORRIBLE shape when Reagan took over. Still, I love how, when the majority elect BO, you think they are so smart, and when they elect Reagan, they are morons. Perhaps they picked the best candidate in both cases? Again, carter was a clown and the dems should have dumped him... but they didn't. The only reason we had Reagan was because of how bad his rabbit fearing predecessor had done.
