Energy policy - Part III

Hi

This is another suggestion that should alleviate our energy problem. For far too long we have held up the drilling for crude in Alaska. It was once described to me that the area designated for drilling is a minuscule part of the pristine countryside. The way it was described to me was as follows - If you take a quarter coin and place it on the corner of an average sized living room rug, the ratio of the quarter to the rug would be in line with the area sought to be drilled. This begs the question, "Is this going to cause any real and lasting harm to the Alaska landscape?" Common sense says we should have been drilling for years and the discussion should have been done, over and closed. Unfortunately our politicians do not think this way. We do have a solution. In November vote out the members of congress who vote against the federal government allowing the drilling.

I will close for now but I will continue to write about what I think we as a nation need to do. Stay with me.

Keep on praying for our brave service people.
GOD Bless
