$4 gas just around the corner?!

Yeah, but the envirofreaks claim that opening 7% of ANWR to oil
exploration wouldn't ease prices.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.


You seem to be in contention for official newsgroup horse's ass...congrats.

Either you want the oil to flow and the prices to go down or you want to
stem the flow of oil and have the prices go up. I want the former.

Why should we let oil just sit in the ground? If we can reduce our
dependence upon foreign oil by drilling in ANWR, the coast of CA and the
Gulf of Mexico we would be doing what some lefties want.
