As long as our [oil] consumption is as high as it is, [and we are not counting shale oil reserves, or NatGas,] we will be dependent on foreign countries Canada and Mexico for oil whether we drill in the US or not.

I made the mistake of studying the Civil War back in the day. Your nonsense (and a fair amount of the liberal nonsense) is just the kind of representation that makes a country so divided as to be ungovernable. Your's is the equivalent of: Conservatives are the kind of people that would continue to send piles of cash to people who would rather see us dead and destroy our economy. That's sleeping with the enemy.
