From Alaska .... |
My
daughter and son-in-law were in L. A. last week from their home
in Anchorage . He
is a foreman in the oil fields at ANWR. He has to fly his own plane to get
to the job where he spends months at a time in the
most God forsaken place this side of Siberia .
He
confirmed everything that is in this story, and brought dozens of pictures
for proof. Our
environmentalist friends have forced gas prices up to an impossible rate,
forcing us to
buy oil from our enemies, for whatever reason that simply isn't true.
There
is enough oil in AMWR to supply the US at our present rate of
usage for more than
200 years. The space that ANWR occupies in Alaskais
equivalent to a postage stamp
in the Mojave Desert .
If
you won't mind paying $5.00 a gallon in the very near future try to make
sense of the following:
Something you should know: Oil!!
This
is the best presentation on ANWR I have seen.
I
would like to add a little more information. A new pipeline across
Alaska isn't
required since the location for drilling in ANWR is about
160
miles from the North Slope Prudhoe Bay pipeline where it would
be
connected. I
did not know this.
Second
the wildlife love the pipeline since it is heated and provides a
shelter
during the worst times during the winter.
Maybe
another question should be asked. FIRST do you know what
ANWR
is? ANSWER: Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
Now a
comparison
And some perspective
NOTE
WHERE THE PROPOSED
DEVELOPMENT
AREA IS
(it's in the desolate "ANWR Coastal Plain")
THIS
IS WHAT THE DEMOCRATS,
LIBERALS
AND "GREENS" SHOW YOU
WHEN
THEY TALK ABOUT ANWR
and
they are right, these ARE
photographs of ANWR
ISN'T
ANWR BEAUTIFUL? WHY
SHOULD
WE DRILL HERE
AND DESTROY THIS BEAUTIFUL
PLACE?
WELL THAT'S NOT EXACTLY
THE
TRUTH!
Do
you remember the map?
The map showed that the proposed drilling
area is in the ANWR Coastal
Plain. Do those photographs look like a
coastal plain to you?
WHAT'S GOING ON HERE? THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE THAT IS NOT WHERE THEY ARE WANTING TO DRILL!
THIS
IS WHAT THE PROPOSED
EXPLORATION
AREA ACTUALLY
LOOKS
LIKE IN THE WINTER
HERE
IS A SCREEN
SHOT
FROM GOOGLE EARTH
AS
YOU CAN SEE, THE AREA
WHERE
THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT
DRILLING
IS A BARREN WASTELAND.
OH...
AND THEY SAY THAT THEY
ARE
CONCERNED ABOUT THE EFFECT
ON
THE LOCAL WILDLIFE?
HERE
IS A PHOTO (SHOT DURING THE
SUMMER) OF THE
"DEPLETED
WILDLIFE" SITUATION CREATED
BY DRILLING AROUND
PRUDHOE
BAY*
DON'T
YOU THINK THAT THE CARIBOU
REALLY
HATE THAT DRILLING?
HERE'S
THAT SAME SPOT DURING
THE
WINTER.
HEY,
THIS BEAR SEEMS TO REALLY
HATE
THE PIPELINE NEAR
PRUDHOE
BAY
*The Prudhoe
bay area accounts for 17% of U.S.
Domestic
oil production
NOW,
WHY DO YOU THINK THAT
THE
DEMOCRATS ARE
LYING
ABOUT ANWR?
REMEMBER
WHEN
AL GORE
SAID THAT
THE
GOVERNMENT SHOULD WORK TO
ARTIFICIALLY
RAISE GAS PRICES
TO
$5.00 A GALLON?
WELL
AL GORE
AND HIS FELLOW DEMOCRATS HAVE ALMOST
REACHED
THEIR GOAL!
NOW
THAT YOU KNOW THAT THE
DEMOCRATS
HAVE BEEN LYING,
WHAT
ARE YOU GOING TO DO
ABOUT
IT?
YOU
CAN START BY FORWARDING
THIS
TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW
SO
THAT THEY WILL KNOW
THE
TRUTH.
It's one place we can drill and not have a war out of it.
