ANWR To Be Pillaged

In some sense, the Senate's vote was inevitable. Modern society is addicted to petroleum, and will pull all the addict's tricks to keep a steady supply of the oily stuff going, no matter what the cost to wildlife, or to law, or to morality. I only wish they had postponed the evil deed for a few decades, when we might really need it. Right now, all the caribou will be sacrificed to keep SUVs running at 80 mph. What a waste!
