IMHO, He's right that we're not on the verge of running out of oil. As to the validity of his story, I have my doubts. There may be some truth to some of it but it's mostly based on his access to 'inside information'. He claims to have been allowed to sit in on board meetings with those that control the oil industry and they openly discussed their plans in his presence. And all because they were so grateful that he brought religion to the heathen hoards that were building the pipeline.

... I think not.

FIRST… do you know what ANWR is?


ANWR = Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.



Now… A comparison




And some perspective…




NOTE WHERE THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AREA IS…

(it's in the 'ANWR Coastal Plain')




THIS IS WHAT THE DEMOCRATS, LIBERALS AND 'GREENS' SHOW YOU WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT ANWR

…and they are right… these ARE photographs of ANWR




ISN'T ANWR BEAUTIFUL? WHY SHOULD WE DRILL HERE (AND DESTROY) THIS BEAUTIFUL PLACE?


WELL… THAT'S NOT EXACTLY THE TRUTH


Do you remember the map?


The map showed that the proposed drilling area is in the ANWR Coastal Plain


Do those photographs look like a coastal plain to you?



WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?


THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE…


THAT IS NOT WHERE THEY ARE WANTING TO DRILL!


THIS IS WHAT THE PROPOSED EXPLORATION AREA ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE IN THE WINTER



AND THIS IS WHAT IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE IN THE SUMMER




HERE ARE A COUPLE SCREEN SHOTS FROM GOOGLE EARTH






AS YOU CAN SEE, THE AREA WHERE THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT DRILLING IS A BARREN WASTELAND.





OH… AND THEY SAY THAT THEY ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE EFFECT ON THE LOCAL WILDLIFE…


HERE IS A PHOTO (SHOT DURING THE SUMMER) OF THE
'DEPLETED WILDLIFE' SITUATION CREATED BY DRILLING AROUND PRUDHOE BAY *…
DON'T YOU THINK THAT THE CARIBOU REALLY HATE THAT DRILLING?




HERE'S THAT SAME SPOT DURING THE WINTER.



HEY, THIS BEAR SEEMS TO REALLY HATE THE PIPELINE NEAR PRUDHOE BAY *…


*The Prudhoe bay area accounts for 17% of U.S. domestic oil production



NOW, WHY DO YOU THINK THAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE LYING ABOUT ANWR?


REMEMBER WHEN AL GORE SAID THAT
THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD WORK TO ARTIFICIALLY RAISE GAS PRICES
TO $5.00 A GALLON? = Sneaky Al,realy sneaky!!!


WELL…

AL GORE AND HIS FELLOW DEMOCRATS HAVE ALMOST REACHED THEIR GOAL!



NOW THAT YOU KNOW THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN LYING,
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?



YOU CAN START BY FORWARDING THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW…
SO THAT THEY WILL KNOW THE TRUTH.

I don't know how many remember the 70's where there was a shortage. Long lines at the pumps, could only get gas on odd or even days according to your plate number and 55 MPH speed limit.
