It will have little impact. Venezuela is just ahead of Angola in US oil sources. Angola exports oil? Oil is an international commodity. As soon as a tanker leaves port the oil can be resold, though at a slightly higher price. The move may benefit Canada, our leading source. Good thing, a lot of oilfield workers have already left Venezuela for Canada.
Lies would have been that he had ties to Al Qaida,He had WMD's that he could and would use. Those are 2 that I remember.Also the war was illegal Bush never got permission from congress to go to war.
Congress did approve using military action (up to and including invasion) on Iraq.
Also, the 1991 Cease-Fire agreement, which Iraq signed, gave the U.S. legal authority to resume military action if it was broken. And it was.
Iraq DID have ties to al Qaeda. G.W. Bush AND the entire international intelligence community AND the U.S. Senate and House made the claims of WMD. So did Bill and Hillary Clinton and Al Gore. Were they ALL "lying?"
To relieve their economic woes, a very small soveriegn country declares war on the US in hopes of being defeated and rebuilt with US taxpayer money.
I had been following that Petrobras deal and found it follows a line of coincidence. Obama declares no offshore drilling for ethical and moral reasons and then decides to loan millions of taxpayer money to Brazil's Petrobras to use for deepwater offshore drilling. Forget the Soros connection, the inconsistency in policy is startling. This is akin to banning DDT in the US while selling it for use in South America.
In another head scrtaher Obama declares he will support offshore drilling, in theory only, and then we have a monsterous oil spill and a moratorium. This is the stuff of conspiracy.
Interesting line of thought that being cut off from our foeign oil supply will drive us to alternative energy. The other side of that coin is being cutoff will drive us to more offshore drilling in the US.
Of course alternative energy needs to be highlighted but not at the cost of destroying our economy and quality of life.
Drill baby, drill ! Why would we sacrifice our service men and women to die in a war where we finance the enemy through our oil and illegal drug purchases. We have all the oil we need within arms reach. Tremendous fuel savings have been realized within the the last 20 years with the use of electronic fuel injection and overdrive transmissions. We need to reduce our oil dependance further without destroying our economy.
Not just drill, baby drill, but all the above too.
Yes I can.I want you to figure it out for yourself.
