I stand by my opinion of the corrupt Alaska Senator who vehemently opposes any conservation protection in his own state. The records show the oil companies give him so much money he just crushes any potential political opposition up there. Democrracy has become a very difficult thing in Alaska. A friend of mine tried to run for State Senate with small contributors and found out the hard way.

RE:"loan of US Strategic Petroleum Reserves to companies with NO RESERVES of their own, NO DRILLING ABILITY TO REPLACE THESE RESERVES, & NO EXPERIENCE IN THE PETROLEUM INDUSTRYl; in exactly what way?"

I recall hearing that Jesse Jackson was somehow involved with this...on the board or part owner of one of the companies?
