Great to hear this. I believe it can get passed with the current House & Senate. I haven't been this hopeful about seeing real environmental progress in years :sun

If they don't drill Lone Wolf's stock portfolio will suffer. Do you really think the enviroment is more important than G.W. Bush,s reputation or LW,s stock holdings? (gee----I do)

Ah ha, the Iraq war had nothing to do with oil. :rolleyes: Maybe once the contracts are signed we can come home.

A prediction: GWB announces his new plan for Iraq the same day this vote is taken so the news here will be about his announcement and not about what this war is really about - those contracts.
