Pickens Gets It
When I first watched oilman T. Boone Pickens commercials, and went to his website, I thought I was looking at a guy who had maybe been around too long. He seemed be leaning too much to wind and solar. But in a recent Senate hearing before the Homeland Security Committee, chaired by Joe Lieberman, |-Conn, he made it clear that he's for everything that isn't foreign oil. That means drilling offshore, in ANWR, using oil shale, windfarms, solar plant, and nuclear. Sen. John McCain is in agreement with all of it except for ANWR, and I think he'll eventually come around on that. He's begun running ads blaming Obama for the big recent oil increases. He is to blame, but he has company. The whole eviro-whacko wing of the Democratic party, that has consistently blocked drilling offshore, building nuclear plants, even building oil refineries. Not just Obama, but all of them must be stopped-- the whole scurvy crew.
