Statistics can be calculated in various ways, but is there anybody that believes Alaska couldn't produce more oil and gas given the opportunity? * * *

How much energy will Obama produce being against nuclear energy and how much energy is Pelosi producing by blocking drilling off the coasts? So how are you going to turn around Obama's plummeting in the polls? I'll give you a hint, keep trashing Palin...lol

It's simply untrue that Alaska produces anything close to 20 percent of the U.S. "energy supply," a term that is generally defined as energy consumed. Huh? Why would the word supply refer to consumption rather than production? That’s preposterous. Regarding the discrepancies mentioned in the article you posted, I don’t have an explanation and I don’t know what the actual figures are. However, the gaffe cited above makes me question the validity of the source.
