At best you might be able to kick the can down the road another 10
years or so. Long term we need policies that encourage the switch to
other forms of energy.



Perhaps Bertie-Birther will be willing to kick in another $2 a gallon
for a special fund to pay for the clean-ups required if we adopt his
policy of "Drilling in all of Alaska, off the coast of Calif., the Gulf
of Mexico and the Eastern Seaboard..."

Of course, the clean-ups many times do not really clean up the messes.

But, Bertie-Birther doesn't give a crap about that. He doesn't live in
Alaska, off the coast of California, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Eastern
Seaboard."

And he doesn't have a boat.


There is no reason to kick in another $2 per gallon. If the US becomes
independent of foreign oil sources then we have achieved the liberals
dream we have stopped causing problem around the world by funding
dictators and despots by filling the coffers with oil profits.

Who will clean up an oil spill from a Chinese drilled well near Cuba? Do
the Chinese care if there is an ecological disaster in the US? Can the
US stop the Chinese from drilling near Cuba.

Why are we going to let the Chinese pump the oil out of our oil fields?
Why shouldn't we pump it out our selves?
