You may want to think it’s a lame cliche, but it is true.
Here is something else that is true, since the piece is about a lot of other things than seizing on a wishful thinking energy policy.
The oil companies already have plenty of unused offshore leases.
And, incidentally, ANWR would have no impact on the oil price crisis. There’s simply not enough there.
Now, where there is a whole passel of oil is under the Arctic ice cap. 
>mishu:
It would take many years to even start that drilling.
Ugh. What a lame cliche that needs to be put to death. It’s like a teenager who whines about having to clean his room. “It’s going to take so long and it’ll just get dirty again anyway.” The only way to get results sooner is to start working on it now. If Clinton didn’t veto ANWR drilling for the same lame reason you state, we’d have that oil by now.
