To the Editor,

Today, President Bush gave yet another speech chiding the “Democrat leaders” for refusing to allow drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. He blames their actions for singlehandedly driving up oil prices. He neglected to mention other Congress members voting records when it comes to ANWR.

In April 2002, John McCain voted “no” on drilling ANWR on national security grounds. In March 2003, the senator voted “yes” on removing consideration of drilling ANWR from budget bill. In March 2005, the senator voted “yes” on banning drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. In November 2005, the senator voted “yes” on disallowing an oil leasing program in Alaska’s ANWR.

I agree with Senator McCain’s stance on drilling ANWR (which mirrors Senator Obama’s).This will provide a bandage over a hemorrhaging wound. Both candidates would be wise to ignore the misguided mutterings of our lame-duck president and search for alternative energy sources to reduce our dependence on oil.

3. Recommended (on both sites)
Once more, you have made the situation so very abundantly (and straight to the point) clear.

Keep 'em coming!

leased by big oil that they are not using. Not published yet, here's hoping!:thumbsup:
