Blood For Oil? Blood For Oil.

If you came upon this site through the Lefty Directory, it might surprise you to learn that I agree with just about every word of this William F. Buckley column. Our way of life, in the broadest possible sense, would end if our supply of oil were cut off. If some hostile entity attempted to do just that, how could we fail defend the oil?

Yes, of course we should be trying to invent alternate energy sources (and that's true even if it's become boilerplate). That doesn't mean we can do without our current energy source.

This is why I'm only imperfectly a leftist, and why I spurn the red-green mess of the Seattle movement as I would spurn a rabid orangutan.
