The US gets THE BULK of its oil from nearby Canada

We get more than twice as much crude oil from OPEC as we do from Canada.

That’s changing as we type——Canada has vast energy supplies and is increasing supplies of oil to the US. We will soon get the bulk of our oil in our own backyard-—right off the country roads of peaceful, bucolic New England.

Knowledgeable Americans don’t give a fig about antediluvian Mideast hellholes.....some of them too stupid to govern themselves without trillions of US tax dollars.

To get their hands on US tax dollars, they con the US, and propagandize the lie that we are “dependent” on Mideast oil....and that the US cannot access our vast energy supplies b/c of enviro concerns.

These con artists oughta go perform an anatomical impossibility with themselves.
