English either, apparently.
how very witty you are...
we were talking about oil...did you have a point you wanted to make? something about "parties" and imports...
...and try to stay on topic and leave me and your opinion of me out of it if you can.
See, I'm an adult and I couldn't care less what you think of me.... and I'm sure no one else here cares either.
Then follow the thread. Duhhhh. You stated we had plenty of oil on this continent. I simply asked you how long it would take for you to bring it in. No rocket science here, pure third grade reading comprehension.
Your question makes no sense and is just an excuse for you to act out and type insulting remarks implying that I have a less than third grade education...it's comical, though...I think that someone who uses "Duhhhh" as a word in a post to "express" themselves is pretty juvenile.
So...back to the topic..
What exactly is the data you want me to provide? current active rig count in the u.s.?..canada? the gulf of mexico?..Daily production rates?...Look, it takes as long to "bring it in" as it does every other day of the week.
Now..you mentioned something about my "party" not letting "me" do something but you got distracted by the urge to type something snarky and weren't able to coherently explain yourself...Want to try again?
So, what is it you allege "my" "party" won't let me do?
Ok. I'll make it as simple as I can: You admit we do import some oil from OPEC. You also say we import oil from Canada. We also import oil from Venezuela. Could one conclude then that we do not produce enough oil ourselves to meet our own demands? Then if we are not meeting our own demands, my question is: How long would it take you to get up to producing enough of our own oil to meet our demands? Six months? One year? Five years? I next stated that the Democrat party will not allow you to drill new wells if you still have to hunt for the oil necessary to meet our demands. I hope that is simple enough for you.
You are clueless about oil, that much is apparent.
This country could be 100% energy independent...if the government and the leftists wanted it to be.
Oh..the DEMOCRATIC party..THAT'S the party you meant when you said "my party" wouldn't allow it..
Well, son..I don't have a party..I have a country... and NEITHER party works for what's best for the country, so at this point after hearing the same old BS from politicians on BOTH sides for decades, I'm an anarchist..
Let it all collapse..we'll draw some new borders, make some "adjustments" and reconstruct what's left.
I agree that this country COULD be 100% energy independent - but it certainly isn't. That was my whole point. I wanted to know how long it was going to take you to become so.
