Time to chose sides on the great oil debate of 08. It is clearly divided between the left and right as usual. The left says no domestic carbon based energy development nor nuclear authorizations, the only solution is "green alternatives to carbon based energy". The right says drill here, drill now and explore nuclear while developing "green alternatives to carbon based energy".

Here is my debate position on the debate: We need to develop nuclear clean nuclear power plants to charge our clean green battery cars. We need to drill here, drill now to develop all sources of domestic oil to replace imported oil. We need to develop clean coal, coal to liquid and oil shale to oil. We need to use all the proceeds to develop "green engineering" to determine the best methods of alternative energy that will replace carbon based energy.

Here is the foundation to my oil argument: Drill everywhere or nowhere. If it is safe in the Gulf of Mexico then it is safe everywhere. If it isn't safe in Gulf of Mexico close down all domestic oil/natural gas operations immediately and import from other nations. This is simple logic and reason...

Watch as the left crumbles in the next six weeks under the scrutiny of this logic and reason... When airlines go tits up and the federal government has to bail them and their union retirement packages out... when Big Brown and Fedex goes tits up and hit the unemployment lines ... let the left offer them a solar panel or windmill solution and see the nation smile as they run them out of town with their environmental and trial lawyers in tow.
