January 28, 2007 - 07:21 ET by saw the light(AP - Los Angeles) - Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman in character as the crusading Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of the Washington Post breaking the Watergate story that would bring down a criminal Republican administration. Ironically, the lessons from Watergate were soon lost as another Republican administration callously disregards the laws of our great nation and drags us into a quagmire, much like Nixon did with Vietnam. Where, oh where, are today's versions of Woodward and Bernstein? Is there no objective journalist who sees the crimes currently occurring in the White House and feels the need to expose them?

Has it ever occurred to you that the same fanatics that attacked us are the ones trying to prevent it from taking root there? Has anything worth fighting for ever occurred to you?

We did not attack Saddam beca
January 28, 2007 - 22:41 ET by NL207We did not attack Saddam because of oil. Were oil the overriding concern, we would have taken over Kuwait and/or Saudi Arabia under the pretext of 'protecting' them.
We went to Iraq because the startegy was to plant a democracy adjacent to both Syria and Iran and so destabilize BOTH of those enemy regimes. As secodary motives, we went there to kill Al Zarqawi's Al Qaeda cell and oust Saddam, a Stalinist dictator actively supporting and harboring terrorists as well as plottong to take revenge on the United States.
The evidence that this is true is overwhelming. Care to debate?

I sometimes think we should just agree with our liberal friends about the oil claim. Then we could blame them entirely for the war. Is it not the liberals that stop new drilling here in the USA, thereby making us totally dependant on foriegn oil?
Oil
January 28, 2007 - 22:53 ET by JimboI’ve always conceded the point on oil being a factor. I see it as an issue of national security, not the ridiculous assertion that it is somehow to line the pockets of the President and his administration.
Jimbo says - "There is a fine line between freedom of speech and treason"
Either way the President coul
January 28, 2007 - 23:03 ET by bigtimerEither way the President could of used it for a mandatory order to start drilling here, and thrown in Katrina and disasters while he was at...high prices ect...
He has had numerous opportunities to order drilling done here for our own self-dependency and safety.
People would of agreed...the majority of this nation would of.
Drilling can be done underwater and ground so safely now without hurting the environment and with prices high and the war going on with the terrorist using us to help pay for their war against us with the oil prices...people in this country would of said go for it...I have seen numerous times that have been squandered at the bully-pulpit when it comes to this....and btw...the majority of congress would of had to pass it back then...
Oh well....

Alaska
January 28, 2007 - 23:11 ET by JimboThis is probably a naïve thought, but I wonder if the government can establish oil fields in Alaska that are tapped into the pipeline, and fire them up only when the cost of foreign oil goes above $X?? Produce enough oil during those times to offset the increased cost kind of thing.
Jimbo says - "There is a fine line between freedom of speech and treason"

January 28, 2007 - 23:21 ET by bigtimerI don't know, but why not...most of Ak. is federal govt. property anyway, Nevada is second to it...so anyway, I dont know, but not a bad idea.
Hell, they were only one vote short in the Senate to get ANWR opened up anyway...again here last year...good ol' McCain anad his Global Warming and no-drilling theory, then you had your usual regular RINO's too, but there were enough votes from the dem's to offset it, we only needed one vote...my heart goes out to Ted Stevens he has worked and been promised that his would go through for over 35 years....it is pathetic for this country now.
Ah well...time will tell, the way the world is going who knows what is going to happen but windmills and woodchips aren't going to do it in the near future if we have a major emergency.
I guess we could honestly say
January 28, 2007 - 23:04 ET by Clear thinkerI guess we could honestly say that oil could be a factor if we are worried that the oil supply from the arab world got cut off because of a number of scenarios. One being Saddam eventually attacking Saudi Arabia with the threat of WMD's.
If liberals want us out of middle east oil troubles, why are they so against drilling here at home? They conveniently forget that the whole country (and most of the rest of the world) runs on oil. Even liberals like driving on smooth roads, ooops, it takes oil to make paved roads. Let's try another....liberals love fresh produce even locally grown, ooops again, it has to be delivered by trucks that need....guess what? yep...oil again.
I could go on but you get the idea.
