The attack on Saudi oil underscores how fortunate Americans are to have a strong energy infrastructure, and how irresponsible calls to dismantle it are.
It takes a special kind of stupid to think that dependence on foreign oil and higher gas prices would be good for the American economy.
Russia playing California for the energy fool.
California steps up dependence on foreign oil as America works toward energy independence.
Making ANWR oil available is a big step forward for America and all who wish renewed strength to the land of the free. The caribou and their wild friends will never know the difference, but we will.

According to a survey published last month in the United Kingdom, climate change risks will force a lower valuation of oil company stock prices within the next five years. But despite many predictions of demise over the last 50 years, global consumption of hydrocarbon energy continues to grow.
CFACT Senior Policy Advisor Paul Driessen warns that the impending lawsuits against oil and gas companies -- created by corrupt city governments as a last-gasp hope for escaping bankruptcy -- pose grave danger for the U.S. economy should these cities succeed.

The planning and evaluation process, Driessen argues, should not be impeded.
