Strengthen the dollar and build more refineries first. Drilling here on our territory is implied but that takes longer.
After that post several FReeper’s felt it necessary to slow roast my chestnuts in an open fire.
Would all those chestnut roaster's please come out of the closet so they can see the light of day and learn just how much the weak dollar is killing middle income and those below already stressed budgets.
Despite what Nancy would have you believe folks, her advice is nuttier and more moldy than a nine year old Christmas fruit cake.
On this business of not drilling in Anwar.
I have been to Anwar back in the 70’s and it is a desolate expanse.
Two thousand acres might seem like a lot to the liberal New York City Slicker Environmentalist but in Alaska two thousand acres is not pimple on an elephants butt.
For those of you who believe like the soap opera Dallas that JR could drill a well and immediately pump gasoline to your local Shell heres the skinny.
Even if we drill in Anwar it will take years to get the pumped oil from the well sight to a refinery somewhere in Canada.
First the Oil Company bronc riders have to break the caribou and train them to pack out those barrels of oil for 2,000 mile trip.
The truth is the United States has allowed the ignorance of the Al Gore and the Sierra Club wannabe liberal politicians to override common sense.
All of what were discussing now should have been done years ago.
What I do not understand knowing the current problems Ms. Nancy is why we can't start tomorrow?
