Now how about ANWR... -- Posted by ayyy at 5:42 pm on July 14, 2008 soo that means gas going to be $2 again? -- Posted by redhotchilis64 at 5:42 pm on July 14, 2008 He can't gain anyone's acceptance no matter what he does now. He fucked up too badly. He needs to get the fuck out of our country, he's not welcome. I understand that that offshore drilling ban needed to be lifted, but that makes me respect Bush no more than I do now. -- Posted by bloodhunter at 5:43 pm on July 14, 2008 Quote: from ayyy at 8:42 pm on July 14, 2008 soo that means gas going to be $2 again? Boy do I hope so.  Took him long enough. -- Posted by daddydwm at 5:44 pm on July 14, 2008 dont be stupid..first congress will not life the ban and even if they did it would be 10 yrs before we see the first drop of oil..why do you think its a quick fix? the only way to fix the current oil issue is to change the law back ( which bush changed in 2002) to get the speculators out of the market -- Posted by Cicero II at 5:44 pm on July 14, 2008 Quote: from ayyy at 5:42 pm on July 14, 2008 soo that means gas going to be $2 again? Eventually, maybe if we can drill in ANWR too. -- Posted by yazmo at 5:45 pm on July 14, 2008 What does the little picture next to the topic title mean? -- Posted by robdude at 5:45 pm on July 14, 2008 It's a start in the right direction -- Posted by driscoll1997 at 5:46 pm on July 14, 2008 im still happy that we do not have to fully rely on foreign oil now, and at least have something to ride on until we find enviormentally safer resources. -- Posted by Crimson Con at 5:21 pm on July 15, 2008 Finally! If Clinton had allowed drilling , we wouldn't even be in this mess.
