Liar. ANWR driling is opposed by the majority of Americans in every single poll ever done. Not only that but Bush and the oil companies are lying through teeth about leaving a "small footprint". When they count the developed acres they don't count 95% of it which are the roads and pipelines, junkyards, spillage, villages, etc. etc. etc. In permafrost, when you throw away an orange rind it takes about 50 years to decompose. So basically they're going to turn the place into a big dump. Drilling there is for one purpose only, short-term windfall profits for the big oil companies, and they'll keep jacking the gas prices higher and higher. Meanwhile they will have damaged or destroyed our last great wilderness area, something which can never be replaced. The CAFE standards bill Bush defeated would have saved more oil than ANWR will ever produce. But efficiency is not in the Bush lexicon. Shame on you for sticking up for the pollutors, gougers and looters of our wilderness. You really should be ashamed of yourself. You're also a bald-faced liar.
