I would like to ask for a show of hands.
Only 21% of our oil is imported from the middle east.

according to the link posted below....
(I will continue to try to verify current accuracy
of this statistic)

How many here are willing to reduce their consumption
of oil by 21% to end any current imports
from the middle east, until all the terrorists
are brought to justice?

>"About half of the oil we consume is produced here in the United States. The rest is imported. Of the oil we import, 51 percent comes from other nations in the Western Hemisphere, 21 percent from the Middle East, 18 percent from Africa and 11 percent from other countries."<
