OIL - you better sit down

Here's an interesting read, important and verifiable information :

About 6 months ago, the writer was watching a news program on oil and one of the Forbes Bros. was the guest. The host said to Forbes, "I am going to
ask you a direct question and I would like a direct answer; how much oil does the U.S. have in the ground?" Forbes did not miss a beat, he said, "more
than all the Middle East put together."

The U. S. Geological Service issued a report in April 2008 that only scientists and oil men knew was coming, but man was it big. It was a revised report (hadn't been updated since 1995) on how much oil was in this area of the western 2/3 of North Dakota, western South Dakota, and extreme eastern Montana ...... check THIS out: ... http://bakkenshale.net/bakkenshalemap.html

The Bakken is the largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska's Prudhoe Bay, and has the potential to eliminate all American dependence on foreign
oil. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503 billion barrels. Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable... at $107 a barrel,
we're looking at a resource base worth more than $5..3 trillion.

"When I first briefed legislators on this, you could practically see their jaws hit the floor. They had no idea.." says Terry Johnson, the Montana
Legislature's financial analyst.

"This sizable find is now the highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past 56 years," reports The Pittsburgh Post Gazette. It's a formation known as the Williston Basin, but is more commonly referred to as the 'Bakken.' It stretches from Northern Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada.. For years, U. S. oil exploration has been considered a dead end. Even the 'Big Oil' companies gave up searching for major oil wells decades ago.
.
However, a recent technological breakthrough has opened up the Bakken's massive reserves.... and we now have access of up to 500 billion barrels. And because this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans just $16 PER BARREL!
.

That's enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 2041 years straight. And if THAT didn't throw you on the floor, then this next one should - because it's from 2006!

U. S. Oil Discovery- Largest Reserve in the World

Stansberry Report Online - 4/20/2006

Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky Mountains lies the largest untapped oil reserve in the world. It is more than 2 TRILLION barrels. On August 8, 2005 President Bush mandated its extraction. In three and a half years of high oil prices none has been extracted. With this motherload of oil why are we still fighting over off-shore drilling?

They reported this stunning news: We have more oil inside our borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. Here are the official estimates:

- 8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia

- 18-times as much oil as Iraq

- 21-times as much oil as Kuwait

- 22-times as much oil as Iran

- 500-times as much oil as Yemen

- and it's all right here in the Western United States .

HOW can this BE? HOW can we NOT BE extracting this? Because the environmentalists and others have blocked all efforts to help America become independent of foreign oil! Again, we are letting a small group of people dictate our lives and our economy.....WHY?

James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says we've got more oil in this very compact area than the entire Middle East -more than 2 TRILLION
barrels untapped. That's more than all the proven oil reserves of crude oil in the world today, reports The Denver Post. Don't think 'OPEC' will drop its price - even with this find? Think again! It's all about the competitive marketplace, - it has to.

Got your attention yet? Now, while you're thinking about it, do this: Pass this along. If you don't take a little time to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you complain about gas prices - by doing NOTHING, you forfeit your right to complain.

Now I just wonder what would happen in this country if every one of you sent this to every one in your address book.

The answer is that the US struck a deal with the devil sometime in the 70's.  The deal was that, 1) Saudis would denominate oil on the world market only in US dollars, and 2) that in return for Saudi Arabia and other OPEC countries buying US Debt in those American dollars via the export of oil, the US would import their oil at favorable prices, making them rich in the process.  Therefore, in the late 1970's, domestic US oil production tanked and has never recovered.  USA has become the largest debtor nation in the history of the world.  American dollars have financed the jihad that has followed.  BTW, remember BHO bowing to the Saudi King?  But BHO's plan is to develop alternate "green" energy sources which will only be feasible if domestic gasoline prices are around $4.00 per gallon.  Actually, his plan has nothing to do with green energy.  It has to do with the global redistribution of American wealth, both through domestic energy policy and "greenhouse gas/cap and trade carbon taxation".

Wake up, America!  Nikita Khrushchev was right.  "We will bury you!"

Please listen to what Ronald Reagan said 46 years ago.

If the attitude of the majority of Americans doesn't change dramatically and soon, our Republic is headed for the ash heap of history.

We (have been) are being sold down the river for nothing more than a left wing political advancement. A belief in the total government control over "every single aspect" of our daily lives. The time has probably come to give some serious thought on how to divide this country physically. We're already divided politically, - nothing's going to change that. Let's take to it's normal conclusion, - one that's best for all in the long run.

Truth is, the lefties desperately need us, - while we don't really need them very much. Barely 50% in this country pay any Federal income tax, and "most" that do are probably not exactly "left-wingers". ... They need our tax money to fund their grand socialist schemes, - 'cause left to their own devices (and base) they'd fold up like a cheap tent on a windy day in less than 20 minutes. - (Food for thought)
