Those 25 RINOS have chosen the "environmental benefit" of a wasteland over national security. I hope they are proud of themselves.

Not having the oil will reduce greenhouse gas emissions ;-)
ANWR is not a wasteland. And the amount of oil that it may have would at most reduce our foreign imports of oil -- by 2020 -- by 4%, from 70% to 66%. If national security is a concern due to dependence on foreign oil imports, there are a lot of things that could be done now rather than worrying about drilling from a place that won't supply a drop of oil to us for another 10 years.
