The Enemy has a name

Agree wholeheartedly, we must name who our enemy is, they are Radical Islamic Jihadists, AND WE MUST GET OFF FOREIGN OIL, this should have happened 20 yrs ago. We have shale oil in Montana, and Wyoming, Anwar reserves, oil off the coasts of Texas, California, and Florida.

The stalemate is in Washington, and getting the Democrats to acknowledge that we have a huge problem here. THE BIGGEST BLUNDER IN AMERICAN HISTORY! Republicans have been trying to drill and use our own resources here in this country. Even Cuba would like to drill off the coast of Florida. It makes no sense to let all this oil go to waste, THATS WHAT ITS THERE FOR. It will take time to get the rigs up and digging, and also, we have not built more refineries. The environmentalists didn't want nuclear power, and that is what alot of foreign countries use. Wind and solar is good too, but Petroleum is still an important factor. I am afaid the politicians have really put us in an unecessary situation.
