OIL: Name of the game is drill

| March 28, 2012 10:00 PM

Oil is a national security problem. We should “drill, baby, drill.” Millions of jobs will be created and we will never have to rely on foreign oil again. This could be completed in 10 years. As new types of energy are developed over the next 50 years oil will become less relevant.

Liberals live in a fantasy world. They think that oil is a fuel of the past. Oil is the fuel of the present and the future. We need to drill baby drill just to keep up with the world consumption. This would also keep plenty of gas at the pump and stabilize the price. The oil leases would also add several trillion dollars to the US Treasury. Drill baby drill is a win win solution.
