Why are we even buying any oil from all those ruthless lunatic arab dictators instead of drilling and using our own oil here at home?

There is only one logical reason, and it's not very logical anymore.

Perhaps the theory was to use up all of the mid-east oil, and preserve the oil in America, Canada, and Russia. I think the world has had enough of Islam and the Cartels. Let them run out of oil, and be done with them, and let them return to the dark ages.

Unfortunately for us, they now have the bomb, and unlike us, they WILL use it if we have the only oil left. Until now, they had the oil and we had the bombs. A lot of good that did us at the pump.

On the other hand, why not use their oil up first?
