2010's issue today: Drill here, drill now, pay less

Because of the worldwide recession, demand for oil is down. The economy will improve next year, albeit slowly, and the wheel of commerce, oil, will grease the economy.

But that means the price of oil will go up, possibly even skyrocket.

Do you remember $4.00-a-gallon gasoline? It could be back next summer. And if that happens, remember it's the Democrats who are trying to not only a ram an unpopular and expensive cap and trade scheme down our throats, it is they who oppose opening our coastlines for oil drilling. By the way, do the liberals support any new oil drilling projects?

Things to think about in 2010. Oh, add building a few refineries to the mix, too.

Drill here, drill now? Don't be silly. The Dems are saving our natural resources--for the Chinese.

I personally enjoy the fact that here in Alaska we have the highest gasoline prices in the nation, and our natural gas is very expensive too. And what do we have an abundance of here? Oil and natural gas. But, since they won't build a refinery here due to the fact that the Feds are trying to block any and all new drilling, we are out of luck. We get to watch our own goods travel down to the lower 48 where you guys all pay less than we do for them.
But, nah, we don't need to drill - let's just keeping buying the bulk of our oil from foreign countries instead. If it save 1 reindeer, to them it's worth it.
