The People to Thank for High Gas Prices

[Christopher Currins]

For my American friends who might wish to contact their representatives and urge them to promote 'home grown' oil and reverse the Democrat's ridiculous and dangerous policies that prevent drilling for oil in the Continental United States ;

Better yet, how about you Canadian bro's contacting some of yours.

Maybe our Canadian brothers should turn loose of some of that there oil.

Fortunately, the world's single-largest oil deposit sits right here in North America. Time magazine calls it "Canada's biggest buried treasure." It's an area with up to 2.5 trillion barrels of oil, locked in Alberta sand. That's eight times the total reserves of Saudi Arabia, enough to satisfy the world's demand for petroleum for the next century.

Canadian industry at the oil sands has pioneered the technology needed to extract that oil. Can't squeeze blood from a stone though and until recently the price of oil just did not make the enterprise as inviting as other sources of oil.

Good point, they always leave out the details.

If we invade , at least the oil spills will stay in Canada and we can reap all the profit from these Frenchies.
Lets just invade the French halve and free the other half in the name of Democracy.
We can leave in , oh lets say 100 years.
Just like in Germany,Japan,Phillipines,etc;

Sounds like a plan.

Well we threw you out in 1812 and burned your capitol for good measure. I am sure that we can work something out in 2008. ( no charge for burning Washington?)
However, If you want to invade, come across at the 1000 islands bridge. I'll be the one holding the 'WELCOME' sign !!
