It doesn't matter the Democrats and the enviromentalists won't let anyone drill for US oil. They would rather have people have to choose oil over food in the witer. But they allow China steal our oil as it drills off the coast of Cuba.


Don't get out much do you steve99?

I see more exploratory rigs north of my house than I have seen in decades.
Go to Kansas....See any rigs? How about over the Permian Basin... see any rigs?

And wouldn't the oil off the coast of Cuba belong to the Cubans?

Nice dig at the Dembs and enviromentalist[sic] though even if uninformed.

The oil company's are all hireing roughnecks in the four corners area as we speak and from what I understand the only idle rigs are the one's that are broken down. Actually there is a new drilling boom taking place, and why not with $100 brrl oil. My tax rebate check is going into oil co. stock.

We are not allowed to drill off the coast of Florida, but yet the Chinese seem to be doing it. And don't they have the technology now to drill at an angle.
Also it seems that every time they vote on drilling in some area of this country it is voted down by the Dems. Alaska is one place. They seem to also vote down alternate types of producing energy. Ted Kennedy seems to think wind powered generators would work fine except in his back yard. He just voted them down of cape cod.
And as for the environuts, we can't drill in certain areas we can't build nuke plants we seem to run into a brick wall when they become involved.

And you don't seem to get out much either, you seem to spend an awful lot of time on this site. No girlfriend huh.

You just hit the nail on the head! At this time in history, OIL (and CREDIT) are the two major pillars of power in the world. Those that control either or both CONTROL THIS WORLD. This is why Big Oil was allowed to place (and keep) it's people in the White House in 2000. Control of Arab oil was also the main reason Sept.11 happened (and was allowed to), the end result being an American "Oil Police " presence thruought the middle east to this day. Certain Saudi's wanted to remove the Royal Family from power because thy were playing ball with the Americans, and selling their remaining 20 years reserve of crude at the bargain price of eighteen dollars a barrel, causing the country to start borrowing money from the World Banks to stay afloat! All this while the American oil interests sat on their knownn, (and unannounced)
reserves. Even (retired) Fed Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan was recently quoted as saying ,"EVERYONE knows the WAR (in Iraq) is over (about) oil". If anyone should know, Don't you think HE WOULD?
What gets me is that there are people who still refuse to believe their elected(?) leaders from 2000 (all having BIG OIL backgrounds) would lie to them and mislead them IN ANY WAY, when, in spite of the media's control over this country there is SO MUCH EVIDENCE to the contrary... What will it take for these folk to swallow their pride, admit they have been taken in and help change the direction that this country's been going? For example, why can't there be a Federal Green energy tax credit for going solar, wind powered ect. like California's been doing? Alternative energy sources were supposed to be viable when oil reached 50 bucks a barrel, we're WAY past that now. I would luv going off the grid and saving hundreds of dollars each month, (even after paying for the systems), like they're doing on the left coast. But there is a reason this isn't even DISCUSSED by our present leadership; they just throw out a "free money $1200 once a lifetime (or every 8 years) BONE out and laugh at how quickly desperate sheeple accept it in lieu of REAL SOLUTIONS.
It's all about POWER and GREED people, for the FEW. BUT as this power must be WILLINGY GIVEN to the few by the many, it can also be TAKEN AWAY and placed in the hands of others duly elected BY THE PEOPLE, not chosen by the FEW. Please perform your duty as citizens of this country and VOTE THIS YEAR, if your'e tired of this mess.
btw Sorry 'bout the rant.......
