Bush has been right about most things. I'll be sorry to see him go.When Obama %26amp; McCain Are Against Drilling For The Oil We All Need,Bush Disagrees. NoWonder HeWon Again In 04?
Get real. He is doing the same thing that he did all along: fooling the gullible with smoke and mirrors.





ANWR will take 10 years to begin production. Then it will produce about 100,000 barrels a day. We import 16 million barrels per day.





Even the Republican governor Schwarzenegger has enough sense not to allow oil rigs in San Francisco bay. Remember the tiny earthquakes in the 70s and the huge oil spills that resulted? What happens when the Big One hits? It's beyond stupid to drill for oil in an area where earthquakes are an everyday occurrence.





The other banned area is Hurricane Alley in the gulf. Think about it.


The actual area that is off limits there isn't all that big. Oil companies have leases for hundreds of fields in the area. The only spots off-limits are those so close to the shore that would cause massive damage to the East coast if a hurricane knocked them out. The oil companies aren't even using the leases that they have now. Even if we give them the oil rights to Hurricane Alley, it may be 20 years before they get around to using any of them. It's expensive drilling rigs in that area.





Even if we managed to drill all three areas, it wouldn't help much. 1/15 of 1% of the amount that we import every day. Starting 10 years from now.





It's important that we do become energy independent. As long as we depend on oil, we're at the mercy of the mid-east, Russia and Venezuela for our daily oil. We need to be concentrating on developing coal, shale oil, nuclear, solar, wind, corn, mulch, anything we can think of into energy, instead of putting blind faith in this pie-in-the-sky idea that only works for people who can't count.


Here's what the government's Energy Information Administration had to say about drilling:

Bush could open up off-shore drilling with the stroke of a pen on an Executive Order. (His dad closed the door on it with one.) Why doesn't he? If it's so critical to national security, why isn't Bush acting today?
John McCain has changed his position on off shore drilling and drilling in ANWAR because the facts have changed.
As usual
