"How dependent are we on foreign oil?
The United States imported about 49% of the petroleum,1 which includes crude oil and refined petroleum products, that we consumed during 2010. About half of these imports came from the Western Hemisphere. Our dependence on foreign petroleum has declined since peaking in 2005."

Yep. About 25 percent from the Western hemisphere. And Iran has established a military presence adjacent to all those sources. We’re still relying on imports for about 50%of our oil needs. Still comfortable with not drilling here. Not drilling now? Perhaps you were too young to remember the Arab Oil Embargo?
