Pickens on oil

A great interview with T. Boone Pickens. In five minutes he can explain the oil issue(s) we have in this country. He can explain the issues in a way that even a corrupt moron (aka US senator) can understand.

The part that's most powerful? The US is sending $700 billion to foreign regimes (which weakens the dollar) that may or may not be friendly to the US. Those dollars could be in the US treasury off of oil reserve royalties.

Gordon;

Very interesting interview; great post. I am left with one word in my mind after viewing this: Congress. Freaking morons we have running our ship aground. Boy there are times that Bush really infuriates me, but I have to say that Congress is the sole problem in this country and drives the blood pressure to the top. And this goes to both parties; both are equally moronic!

If Congress would just get out of the way we would be much better off. And republican folks still won’t give Ron Paul a look.
