HI AG,

I whole heartedly agree with you.

It baffles me that the senators have been bought by lobbyists and they have written laws that prevent us from developing our own natural resources.

We fro the land of the free have been kept from the pursuit of wealth in the development of our own natural rtesources.

Perhaps when states like California get bankrupt they'll discover that in the real world wealth must be created before it can be shared.

I blame the legislators for being bought and not having the common sense our forefathers head about developing wealth and having a forward view towards improving our citizenship quality of life.

It's never as easy as written ,but it takes a forward vision and real leadership to create a consensus on a future direction.

Not sure Obama is up to that,but I hope he can surprise me.

Bob

we need to make our energy independence about national security, not the price of oil. It just happens that the price of oil is the biggest incentive for the general population to reduce usage.

As far as the energy policy, I simply want it to be about removing the obstacles to developing and using energy sources other than petroleum.
