 BK>>  You blow hot air, but never once support anything you say.

 JM> Like you have any room to talk.

 Notice the citations? That constitutes supporting what I said.

 And I notice not one of you was capable of addressing the issue.

 Esp lets discuss the fact that, of that est 86 billion barrels
 of oil *believe* to be recoverable from our off shore areas,
 only about 25% is covered by the congressional moratiorium.
 Which leads to the question, why hasn't Bush licensed the 75% he
 has always had the authority to license?

 Check the Bush administration energy departements report to
 congress on offshore oil.

 Or, let's talk about the construction of refineries. Let's
 discuss the analyst from the American Petroleum institute, who
 reports the oil companies are expanding existing refineries so
 much they have added the equilivent of one new refinery every
 year for the last ten years.

 And we can wrap is up by looking at the article in the Wall
 Street Journal, July 21, 2008, which reported there are more
 rigs drilling in this country today than ever before.

 Or the commentary in the Toledo Blade last Saturday that
 reported that the proposed oil drilling will have an effect
 equal to about 2/10s of one percent of the world's oil
 production. IOW, no real effect on oil prices. And the Alaska
 oil will probably never see America's shores once it goes aboard
 those ships, going to Japan or China instead, just like Prudhoe.

 Yes, let's have that discussion. Bring on the cameras.
