WE CHANGED ELECTED
OFFICIALS REGARDING
DRIVER’S LICENSES AND
IMMIGRATION
NOW WE MUST DO THE
SAME ON DRILLING FOR OIL
Energy prices are
hurting our economy and apparently, there is no end in sight. But we can
make a difference as we have in the past...New Yorkers and all American’s
must let Congress know that the time to drill for oil here in America is
long past. And, yes, we have to explore additional avenues available for
our energy consumption, nuclear, wind, solar, natural gas and coal.
Until we convert to
these alternative methods, we must drill for oil in oil rich America. The
Bakken fields beneath North
Dakota,
Montana and Canada hold an estimated 400
billion barrels of oil. In comparison, Saudi Arabia’s biggest field,
Gahawar, has an estimated 55 billion barrels. ANWR has an estimated 10.4
billion barrels. (Thanks to Townhall.com contributor, Lawrence Kudlow’s
article of June 9 for these figures.) Also cited in the same article is the
fact that a Bureau of Land Management study showing 279 million acres under
federal management where oil and gas could potentially be extracted. But it
is off-limits. Offshore, where another 86 billion barrels lie in wait, is
also restricted. However, China,
already one of our biggest competitors, drills for oil just 60 miles south
of Florida.
We
have the power and responsibility to do what is right, NOW.
Contact your
Congressman and Senator. Remind them they work for US and we demand an end
to political bickering. We must give drill for oil NOW. We must build the
necessary refineries. We, the people, must remind our federal elected
officials that their responsibility is to PROTECT AMERICAN INTEREST by
drilling for American oil.
