Be sure to read to the very bottom where the Senator has
attached an email that was sent to him.

Senator Jeff
Kruse
R-Roseburg, District 1
AMERICAN OIL
We continue to be driven by an agenda
focused in part by alternative energy. We are told the purpose is
two fold, to be more environmentally friendly and to reduce our
dependence on foreign oil. I have written in past newsletters about
the environmental side of this debate. For example how ethanol
actually takes more energy to create than we save by using it and about
how it makes no sense to take land out of food production for this
purpose. We even had acknowledgement on the Senate floor about how
corn based ethanol will never work. Unfortunately that statement
was followed up with the claim that cellulosic ethanol, which has even
less sugar than corn, might be the answer. We seem to be
chasing the next, greatest, unproven solution. The fact is oil is
more environmentally friendly than this alternative and will be for the
foreseeable future.
This brings us to the issue of our
dependence on foreign oil. I received an e-mail on the subject,
complete with links to the USGS for verification. These are not my
words, but I do agree with the points being made. I thought I would
share this e-mail with you verbatim to hopefully give you a look into
potential solutions to this problem that differ greatly from current US
energy policy.
Sincerely,
Senator Jeff Kruse
The U. S. Geological Service issued a report in April ('08) that only
scientists and oil men knew was coming, but man was it big. It was
a revised report (hadn't been updated since '95) 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:
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.' And 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 41 years
straight.
2. And if THAT didn't throw you on the floor, then this next one
should - because it's from TWO YEARS AGO!
U. S. Oil Discovery - Largest Reserve in
the World!
Stansberry Report Online - 4/20/2006
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.
Think OPEC just might be funding the environmentalists?
Got your attention/ire up yet? Hope so! Now, while you're
thinking about it ......and hopefully P.O'd, do this:
3.. Pass this along. If you don't take a little time
to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you want to
complain about gas prices .. because by doing NOTHING, you've forfeited
your right to complain.

After calling Mike Dobb this afternoon I was told in no uncertain terms that under no circumstances would he even entertain the idea of permitting an information courtesy table to be allowed on any property under his control.
Unfortunately this is a common response that liberals give when faced with the conservative idea of freedom of speech or expression.
Nevertheless we/I will be on public property on TEA PARTY DAY in Puyallup in Washington State this 4th of July 2009. I'll be there handing out cards and tea bags, hopefully awakening the almost lost, deeply hidden or disguised indomitable spirit that made us Americans. (Splash, Splash...)
