Pete - Re:"You ever hear of the Gulf of Mexico? Conveniently forget about it? If you have not heard of it, its that big sea south of the Mississippi and east of Mexico. Lots of petroleum there under it."

Bush said Mexico is a source of domestic oil-- as in "nation of" not "Gulf of" .

Here is some lying, media propaganda that you probably want to ignore that affirms Bush thinks that drilling in Mexico will produce domestic oil.

He wants more energy exploration in Mexico so we won't be so dependent on foreign oil.

Besides, sorry you have not heard, but the Gulf of Mexico is a body of international water -- just like the North Sea in the Atlantic ocean.

Nice to hear Dubya is considering the "Gulf" (which is what I thought as well that oilmen referred to the G of M for short form) for drilling oil.. hopefully he'll realize thats a much politically safer place to drill for instead of the arctic.. which the environmental groups will be all over him for selling out the environment to the oil barons,, and having to worry about Canadian objections.

BTW.. I dont think its necessary for you to resort to insults when you're debating with other people.. it just lowers the conversation level.

Respectfully.
