We the People are not asking, We are DEMANDING that part of the energy solution in the short term is to DRILL HERE, DRILL NOW PAY LESS!
All representatives who tout the building of nuclear plants, biofuels, wind and solar will not, repeat will not solve the rising gas prices and food prices now. These alternatives will take years to build and bring to market. Some more than 10 years.
Don’t tell me that drilling won’t come sooner. In 1995, ANWR was voted down ostensibly because it would take 10 years to get to the people and won’t make much of a dent anyway. Well it’s been 13 years now since than. Where is our oil?
We the people are not stupid. Many of us are hurting. Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less for drilling for oil, for natural gas (which sells for $1.00 per gallon or thereabouts)and oil shale. Also just mining our coal in Alaska alone is enough energy for 200+ years.
Also, when President Bush repealed the executive ban on offshore drilling the price of oil plummeted more than $30.00 in 10 days. Now, if Congress and the Senate would do the same, how much more would oil prices drop?
Those of you who will not work for us will be removed from office; if not immediately than soon!
We the People are getting angry. Some are even sharpening their pitchforks and preparing torches.
Yours in Jesus Christ Forever
