You gotta read this, it's good for a laugh. Yeesh, something tells me ol' Chuck took too many blows to the head over the years.

1. ANWR isn't worth it. There isn't that much oil in there anyway.
Of course, the mentality that we should totally expend something before moving onto a new solution is a dumb one, simply because it causes more short-term damage than there really has to be.

10. Not to mention the Prudhoe Bay pipeline has to be extended and rebuilt due to corrosion.


Plus the oil will not be shipped south to the US
It will just go into the market at the prevailing
price. Oh did I mention that there is no Alaska
link planned for the yet to be built Mackenzie Pipeline?

The ANWR oil might as well be on Mars.

2. Chuck Norris doesn't have to drill for oil
He calls it and it pops out of the ground.

3. Thank God he's weighing in on this issue
I often find myself asking what does Chuck Norris think about the oil situation?

Now, I know.
I'm sot surprised either.

I can't decide if it's him or Ted Nugent that's the bigger ass-clown

4. Maybe Chuck Norris should spend his time pretending to be a Texas Ranger rather than an oil expert.

6. He's just jealous
because he wanted to call one of his movies "There Will Be Blood."

7. This is a capitalist country. Who is to say any oil found will not be sold to China,
or whoever pays the highest dollar for it?

8. Well then I suggest that Exxon drills in Chucky's skull
Surely there's something in there, it could well be oil!

12. As if that will make a difference in the huge picture except for more profits
Edited on Tue Jun-10-08 02:59 AM by GreenTea
for the OIl conglomerates and destruction of what's left of our wilderness & wildlife.....a few drops they can domestically and more cheaply dill for on the backs of our taxes we work hard for, greedy fucks! And we all know this as they destroy, for their small amount of oil, a drop in the bucket, like they are going to help us and gas prices will be lowered, bullshit. Yeah, Norris said the same about the the illegal invasion of Iraq (and now Iran) would do the same, he's an idiot pawn...These are pigs, NEVER enough for them...even if we become polluted like China, they simply go behind their gated communities and reap in the profits, caring about nothing or nobody, except their subsidies, (corporate welfare, which the republicans love) tax breaks and more profits...Norris is just another republican asshole! Dude, just make your bullshit silly "action" propaganda films and shut the fuck up!

Norris is just another huckster for the corporate republicans!!
