As long as our [oil] consumption is as high as it is, [and we are not counting shale oil reserves, or NatGas,] we will be dependent on foreign countries Canada and Mexico for oil whether we drill in the US or not.

I made the mistake of studying the Civil War back in the day. Your nonsense (and a fair amount of the liberal nonsense) is just the kind of representation that makes a country so divided as to be ungovernable.
