12. Exactly. Dubya says gotta drill in ANWR to bring the price back down, BUT
Edited on Fri Mar-11-05 05:43 PM by flpoljunkie
what he won't tell you, and neither will the cable clowns, that Exxon Mobil and other oil companies had record profits in 2004.

Somehow the network cable whores never bother to mention this very salient fact!

Dubya is getting a twofer! Major profits for his oil buddies and the prospects of drilling in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge--ANWR! Never mind, that there is not enough oil to feed the gas guzzling Amerikun people for more than 6 months or that it will take 10 years to develop there.

The oil companies are not even clamoring to drill there, like the Alaskan people are--they receive oil drilling subsidy payments. But Gail Norton, Dubya's Interior Secretary, assures us that oil companies will pony up to buy the oil drillin' leases.

For Dubya, it is about getting his way, in no small part, I would venture to speculate. He has been trying to ram this down our throats since he stole the office in 2000.

Well, we ain't going down without a fight! We can beat these short-sided Neanderthal greedheads!
