If Obama wins in 2012, North Dakota will be shut down just as our Gulf was.

This is the most important news story of our time. If more Americans understood the ramifications of this issue, how it relates to unemployment, our deficit, our dependency on foreign tyrants and our desire for America to be independent and free, they would be marching on the Capital to remove the obstacles standing in the way of exploration.

This issue, contrasted with the Global Warming idiots is where my support will go. Whichever candidate clearly explains the importance of this issue, will win the Presidential election. If no one on the Republican side takes it on clearly and decisively, Sarah must run!

It's that important....

"No way. We estimate that the entire field, fully developed, in Bakken is 24 billion barrels."

In other words, one of the many satellite fields around Ghawar contain more reserves than all of the Bakken without the geologic risks. The title of the piece is ignorant if not deception. It is down right frightful how little the average citizens understand the oil business and the distribution of reserves, production and exploration. WSJ is turning into political opinion trash instead of fact based research. That said, I would be appalled if Obama actually thinks that battery cars will have any significant impact on oil demand within a short period of time.
