If you wanted to demonstrate how stupid or clueless your Congress
Edited on Sun Jun-22-08 10:51 AM by Texas Explorer
critter is, what would you ask them? How would you go about testing their socio-economic knowledge or awareness?

And, before you jump my ass about calling congress critters stupid, just know that mine are from Texas 17 (Chet Edwards), John Cornyn, Kay Hutchinson. Not to mention idiots like Lamar Smith and Pete Sessions.

Edited to add: My question would be: How long, at today's current consumption rate, would it take to exhaust all the oil ANWR can produce?

The answer is 7-9 months.

1. Yeah, but they could divert billions and give the land to the oil corpos.
It is also about wanting to appear as if they are doing something to control the price of oil while in truth they are enriching their oil corpo buddies.

Gullible and desperate people will believe anything if they need something to hope in.
