We need drilling in California, Florida, ANWAR, Gulf of Mexico, and anywhere that Boxer and Diane Feinstein doesn’t want us to drill. Drill Drill Drill!

  • Question for Al Gore and the global warming Chicken Littles.

    Suppose through science and technology they came up with a way to set the greenhouse gases to whatever they wanted. And therefore, according to the current wisdom, the ability to finely adjust the average global temperature. What temperature would they select? Or more to the point, who would select it? The Russians and North Koreans might want a high temperature while the Iranians and Iraqis might want it much lower. We could have the Iranians taking out the methane and the Canadians putting more back in.

    Of course Al Gore would say we should develop the technology first - the hard problem - and then solve the political problem - the easy one. I would say deciding who gets to select the Goldilocks temperature might be the hardest problem.
