Can the 9th circuit weight in on this?
Not too up on how or if our court system can affect things like this.
Woohoo. Good to see some light after the dark ages.
That’s only about 3 square miles.
Quote from Steyn...I’m assuming during Bushie’s presidency:
“If you can’t sell the country on the need (to drill ANWR) when you’re at war with a bunch of Islamofascists from the Middle East, when can you? Wouldn’t it be more efficient to fly to Alaska and do a walkabout with all the locals who are itching for the drilling to start? And, while you’re at it, give a speech out on the ugly barren wasteland the eco-loonies have declared inviolable while getting pecked to pieces by the world’s biggest mosquito herd, whose needs apparently outrank those of the American people.”
and the democrats want to block this.
What are the dictators of the mideast paying these days to the politicians and reporters to block oil drilling in the USA?
I’m guessing that with new and improved drilling methods and fracking, that it is cheaper to get the oil out of Texas and North Dakota for now.
BUT - I’m also guessing that with the re-opening of the Arctic, they will continue exploration of the area for when it becomes cost-effective to drill up there again.
I agree, but 21twelve needs to include New Mexico along with Texas and N.Dakota!
Thanks for the tax cuts. Now CUT SPENDING you SCUMBAG, CRIMINAL pieces OS.
While I like the fact that they’re opening up some new drilling, I had to laugh at the size. We’re only talking about an area just under 3 square miles. That’s almost a joke.
I wish it opened up the George’s Bank area off New England. Lots of oil...
A bigger part of it needs to be opened to drilling.
