Please write to your congressmen ask them to support drilling for oil in our own country, employing our workers,and saving us billions of dollars.
As unrest boils over in the Middle East, the American people are watching what's happening throughout the Muslim world and wondering if they are witnessing the rise of another Ayatollah Khomeini somewhere in the Gulf region, a despot that ultimately will destabilize the free enterprise system not only in the United States, but throughout the free world.
This matters because the price of crude oil rises with the temperatures of the times---and times in that region are currently VERY HOT.
THIS MEANS WE MUST TELL OUR GOVERNMENT "DRILL, BABY, DRILL!"
Middle east destabilization is now driving up the price of crude, now over $100.00 per barrel. When oil exceeds the $120.00 per barrel rate, and stays there, it will have a devastating impact on all consumer goods, triggering a massive spike in not only in retail prices, but in interest rates as well. The current world scenario raises the question of exactly what is "cheap oil." Cheap oil used to be Middle east oil because it was the least expensive place in the world to drill. That is no longer the case. Yet, the United States is totally dependent on foreign oil.
The shocking reality is that the United States is looking at $5.00 per gallon gasoline, or even higher, in the very near future if something is not done to relieve the pressure valve. That relief valve may very well be the U.S. domestic oil industry itself even though, today, that industry is mostly shut out of its own country.
The logical solution to this problem would be to drill here, in America, where we have plenty of resources. But the Obama administration and his buddies, the environmental terrorists, are preventing us from drilling off U.S. shores!
Cuba and its partners are about to drill for oil in the Gulf of Mexico, but United States companies cannot do the same. That means not only is Cuba able to tap into resources Americans should be benefitting from, but they are putting us at risk of hazards and spills we have no control over.
Every oil-producing country in the world is drilling in the Florida Keys, Gulf of Mexico, and along the California coast---EXCEPT THE UNITED STATES!! Our government is subservient to the fears that environmentalists have raised. It begs the question: Who are the environmentalists in bed with, other than the Democrats?
Drilling for oil here in America would not only reduce our prices and prevent us from being at the mercy of the volatile Middle Eastern region---but it would also BRING JOBS TO AMERICA.
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) worked with the North Dakota Geological Survey, a number of petroleum industry companies and independent universities and other experts to study the Bakken Formation in North Dakota and Montana.
James Bartis, leading researcher with the study, says America has more oil in this one compact area than the entire Middle East.
The Department of Interior believes that North Dakota and Montana have an estimated 3 to 4.3 billion barrels of recoverable oil in this area, and it could be extracted at an approximate cost to Americans of only $16 a barrel.
Royal Dutch Shell believes we could extract fuel from oil shale, a type of sedimentary rock found in Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado's Western Slope. Studies indicate there may be more than one trillion barrels of oil in this shale. THAT IS NEARLY THREE TIMES THE RESERVES IN SAUDI ARABIA.
America would have a sufficient oil supply for the next 400 years.
WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?
Relying on Middle Eastern oil is placing our future in the hands of our enemies. That is a horrible position to be in.
American citizens need to INSIST we tap into our own resources and stop depending on the volatile Middle East region.
Iranian warships are now sailing through the Suez Canal. Not only does that deeply concern the nation of Israel, but the future of distribution of oil in the entire region. What if the Muslim Brotherhood was to control the new Egypt---they, too, would control the Suez Canal. The Strait of Hormuz is considered dangerous as fragile dictatorships barely hang on, like in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Algeria, Tunisia, and even Iran.
The Muslim Brotherhood continues to ignite national tensions into international rage. Libya is ablaze with dissenters and protestors. Protestors caused Egypt's Hosni Mubarak to fall. There is no telling what the next days and hours will bring to that part of the world.
The bottom line: the U.S. does NOT produce enough oil on its own. 60% of the U.S. oil supply comes from foreign sources. The United States has become overly dependent on buying oil from other nations, to keep its economy going. And the environmentalists have confronted our oil production, every step of the way! The Obama Administration and his "lieutenants" have joined forces with the environmentalists who oppose the U.S. oil production. They would rather supposedly "save the environment" and GIVE MONEY TO TERRORISTS, just so we can get oil!
We've got to demand that Congress ignore the environmentalists and open up drilling in the United States. NO LONGER can we stand to be at the whims and wishes of Middle East terrorist or Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. When we rely more and more on foreign oil---that spells disaster.
The "shut down" of oil coming to America is now a possibility---unless YOU act right away.
We need to focus on drilling near Florida, the Keys, and the Gulf of Mexico where Mr. Obama originally shut down the drilling.
The United States can no longer accept the rhetoric that it is cheaper to get oil from our enemies. By depending upon our enemies for oil, the price of oil will erupt like a nuclear explosion. Unless we produce for ourselves, we will soon think that $5 a gallon oil will be quite a bargain. Again, we can thank the liberal environmentalists for slowing our production over the past few years!
Please help us to urge our Congressmen to produce more domestic oil.
Political differences and the Environmental Protection Agency have combined to strangle any hope of establishing a true national approach to becoming energy self-sufficient. Our only hope is INCREASED PRODUCTION!
We must do something NOW. Not tomorrow. Tomorrow will be too late. The oil and oil reserves of America is at risk. The bottom line: WE MUST PRODUCE MORE! We must not "cow down" to the wishes of the liberal environmentalists.
The danger is already here. The oil-producing countries are now substantially at risk due to their march toward freedom (or Muslim Brotherhood leadership).I ask for your very important participation as we urge Congress:
