Drill!!

Here in America, we have many resources available to us. They are some of the things that make us great. We have vast stretches of land, fertile soil, expansive shorelines, a moderate climate, and OIL. It is definitional
insanity when you possess resources to say that you shouldn't use them, and to work to eliminate them. The United States has oil, the United States needs oil, it is not therefore a logical progression to say that we need to
curtail the use of oil and find alternative energy sources. Looking for alternative energy sources is what you do when you RUN OUT of something, or are preparing to run out. We have hundreds if not thousands of years of oil in our ground, and right now, most of that is being pumped out by foreign companies or sold to foreign countries, while we suffer through near $5/gallon gas. Going forward, there are plenty of idiots who hate fossil
fuel who are going to spur on the development of alternative energy sources. For the rest of us who like and depend on dinosaur power, can we please drill??
