Yes, please I want to believe you.
Tell me where else we going to get it. Don't tell me about alternative power sources, they are not up to the point where they can be massively exploited. By the way, that's what I studied. Now, that this out of the question, please tell me where you would get what you would replace the Middleastern oil.
We have more than enough oil here in the United States, but we don't want to rely on it. Alternative sources are advancing daily also.
My boss is also in the oil business.

U.S. Regular Army from 1975 to 1980. Father was Air Force. Two uncles U.S. Army. One grandfather Navy, one U.S. Army Air Force. Brother currently serving and retiring from 20+ years Naval service in one year. Didn't count cousins or ancestors that served in the Civil War and others.
So the obvious answer is yes. And you and yours?

Can you show me, out of the people we had to chose from, the "moral candidate." I have yet to see a polotician that is "moral." I voted for Bush only because Kerry would not stick to a view. Besides Bush won the election, get over it. You only have to deal with it for four more years.
I only mentioned "moral" because the polls showed that the main issue to people was the perceived morality of the candidate and not the Iraq war or being lied to, and these were the people that pushed Bush over the edge in his so called "mandate." As for the lame "catch all" statement that "Bush won the election, get over it.", all I can ask is this...
Does "getting over it" mean I have to shut up and accept wrong when I see it? If I was talking about recounts or hanging-chads in Florida you would have a valid point, but I am not talking about that am I? Just because Bush "won" doesn't mean I have to like it.
Sheesh.
Is it
moral to send kids off to war and die for a lie?
