Obama Energy Pick Backs Higher Gas Tax: (source: ABC News, December 15, 2008)
"Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe," Steven Chu, the director of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, told the Wall Street Journal in September 2008.
From: ConservativeActionAlerts Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2011Subject: Drill Here, Drill Now, In America
OIL PRICES HAVE RISEN 133% SINCE OBAMA TOOK OFFICE.
GAS PRICES HAVE RISEN 70.4% SINCE OBAMA TOOK OFFICE.
Yet, Obama, Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar, and Energy Secretary Steven Chu, CONTINUE TO PREVENT THE U.S. FROM DRILLING FOR OIL IN THE GULF OF MEXICO.
Responding to political pressure and rising frustration from consumers, Salazar has issued ONE PERMIT TO DRILL, to Noble Energy's oil well off the coast of Louisiana. ONLY ONE PERMIT.
That is not going to solve our problems and the Obama administration knows it!
Mideast destabilization is now driving up the price of crude, now over $100.00 per barrel. The excessive price of oil not only has a devastating impact on consumer goods, but on interest rates as well.
"Cheap oil" used to be Mideast oil because it was the least expensive place in the world to drill. That is no longer the case. Yet, the United States is totally dependent on foreign oil.

THAT IS WHY WE MUST TELL OUR GOVERMENT "DRILL, BABY, DRILL!"
The unrest in the Middle East matters because the price of crude oil rises with the temperatures of the times---and times in that region are currently VERY HOT.
Relying on Middle Eastern oil is placing our future in the hands of our enemies. That is a risky position to be in.
The logical solution to this problem would be to drill here, in America, where we have plenty of resources. But the Obama administration and his environmental terrorist friends are preventing us from drilling off U.S. shores!
American citizens need to INSIST we tap into our own resources and stop depending on the volatile Middle East region.
Is our future $5.00 per gallon of gasoline, or $8.00 per gallon, $10.00 per gallon, or even higher? That is very likely if something is not done IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE to relieve the pressure valve. That relief valve may very well be the U.S. domestic oil industry itself even though, today, that industry is mostly shut out of its own country.
Every oil-producing country in the world is drilling in the Florida Keys, Gulf of Mexico, and along the California coast---EXCEPT THE UNITED STATES!! Our government is subservient to the fears that environmentalists have raised. It begs the question: Who are the environmentalists in bed with, other than the Democrats?

Drilling for oil here in America would not only reduce our prices and prevent us from being at the mercy of the volatile Middle Eastern region---but it would also BRING JOBS TO AMERICA.
AND WE HAVE ALL THE OIL WE NEED RIGHT HERE IN AMERICA.
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) worked with the North Dakota Geological Survey and other experts to study the Bakken Formation in North Dakota and Montana.
James Bartis, leading researcher with the study, says America has more oil in the Bakken Formation than the entire Middle East.
The Department of Interior believes that North Dakota and Montana have an estimated 3 to 4.3 billion barrels of recoverable oil in this area, and it could be extracted at an approximate cost to Americans of only $16 a barrel.
Studies indicate there may be more than one trillion barrels of oil in oil shale, a type of sedimentary rock found in Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado's Western Slope. THAT IS NEARLY THREE TIMES THE RESERVES IN SAUDI ARABIA.
America would have a sufficient oil supply for the next 400 years.

What are we waiting for?
The bottom line: 60% of the U.S. oil supply comes from foreign sources. The environmentalists have STOPPED US FROM DRILLING HERE, every step of the way!
The Obama Administration would rather supposedly "save the environment" and GIVE MONEY TO TERRORISTS, just so we can get oil!
NO LONGER can America stand to be at the whims and wishes of Middle East terrorists or Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. When we rely more and more on foreign oil---that spells disaster.
By depending upon our enemies for oil, the price of oil will erupt like a nuclear explosion. Unless we produce for ourselves, we will soon think that $5 per gallon oil will be quite a bargain. Again, we can thank the liberal environmentalists for slowing our production over the past few years!
We must do something NOW. Not tomorrow. Tomorrow will be too late. The oil and oil reserves of America is at risk. The bottom line: WE MUST PRODUCE MORE! We must not "cow down" to the wishes of the liberal environmentalists.

The danger is already here. I ask for your very important participation as we urge Congress to DRILL HERE IN AMERICA, NOW!

P. S. Thank you for your attention as we help Americans to truly understand what we will soon be facing, unless we start producing MUCH MORE... RIGHT NOW. Please CLICK HERE to FAX every Member of the U.S. Congress to tell them to open up drilling on the coastal waters of the United States!
