I think she is wrong. We can buy the oil coming from our own sources at market rates, just the same as we buy wheat from local farmers at the market rate.

Exactly........all this nonsense is just that,for one thing, just the fact that we would be able to put more oil on the market, would give us leverage against opec and bring the price down. Secondly, seems to me if the federal government can prevent drilling in the first place, it could put stipulations on any oil being drilled domestically. Bottom line as long as there is oil in the ground THE WORLD will run on oil, and if we think we aren't going to we are doomed!
Maddow says oil independence is a myth because there is only one market for oil - the world market which sets the price.
That is true as far as it goes, but apparently she has forgotten about the Arab oil embargo of 1973 where people were getting into fights over their place in line at the gas station. We need to produce enough oil for our own use as a national security precaution in case there is another interruption in the overseas supply.

Don't u know that these ..."degrees " are entirely political & have no scientific value..?
Like the Nobel "Peace " prize,that Norwegian commies give to whoever they approve...
As for the homosexuality,the majority of Amers believes that it is a sexual attitude disorder...
They express their disapproval of that disorder by voting No for same sex marriages...
Sad that talking heads of infotainment shows have to educate people about common knowledge (oil being traded on international markets).
It eases the pain to think, "chaos up, not perfection down", well, you catch my drift.
