Hahaha excellent. Environmentalists way overhype the impact of drilling. It's not like the oil companies are going to raze the entire ANWR.

That's funny, isn't Fox a conservative station?

Is there some part of the information in the link that you find questionable?

Please share.

And here's another map for you. It's not from Fox, so you can look at it.

I find it interesting that instead of getting your news from an unbiased source, you use Fox News, a laughable & totally biased newsource. You don't see the humor in this?

I dont believe drilling will have any impact on the price of oil, long or short term. The oil companies that extract the oil will sell it at the world price for a barrel of oil and not a penny less. The amount will be a small percentage of world supply which the major oil producing countrie will decrease their supply to keep the price up. Ya gotta listen to T. Boone, we've hit peak oil and we aint drilling our way out of this problem

I don't think they've quite stooped to redrawing maps.

And 3.13 square miles is really pretty small. That's like 80 miles of four lane interstate.

Won't open for me here at work but I got an email similar; it included a bunch of photos, maps, diagrams, google earth views, etc.

If you look it up on snopes, you can find that while true, the info is somewhat one-sided.

However, it is not untrue.

I find it interesting that you just got pwned! How is Tammybruce.com, Fox News? And even if it was, how does that change what you just viewed. So, just to reiterate, you have no actual qualms or arguments with what you just saw(How could you? It is what it is), you just hate the messenger so much you refuse to acknowledge it? Did I get that correct? I find that laughable.

PS. Tammy Bruce is a lesbian. I thought that gave her instant cred amongst the liberal Marxist crowd, or is that only when she agrees with your agenda?
