Might be part of the reason for high fuel price's.

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.

So tell me again how Al Gore, who does not even hold a political office, is raising gas prices?


With a tinfoil hat perhaps? Or does this have anything to do with the record profits made by US based oil companies and the fact that our good friends in the Iraq Oil Ministry are up and running to the tune of a couple million barrels a day. Wasn't that the war that was goiong to pay for itself?

You do realize that nearly 100% of new Alaskan crude would go to Japan, China, and India, don't you?
