I would take exception to the interviewer's assertion that Alaska is still a possession of the United States. It is ONE of the United States. The biggest, farthest north, farthest east, farthest west, longest days, longest nights, most lakes, most coastline, most ice, most grizzlies, most moose, most caribou, most etc. etc. state in the Union. Demolibs will deny it, but Cheney was dead on. People think drilling in ANWR will ruin it. Let's say you live in a 2000 square foot house. There's an oil-soaked postage stamp on the floor. Does that ruin your house? Does that postage stamp ruin your yard? Does it ruin the city block you live on? That's the scale we're talking about here, folks. One oily postage stamp on a city block is the relative equivalent of drilling in ANWR. Compare that to the relative impact of the eight lane highway running from Philadelphia to New York. You want to do something about the environment? Do something about THAT!
