Cant drill because of polar bears...? the artic reserve has billions of barrels of oil we could tap into if it wasnt for some polar bears, but this is another example of how us dammed americans are soft and will always be at the mercy of forgien oil....Why cant the bears be moved or is their surival more important than ours?

• Wrong.
  
  ANWR would supply our oil needs for a few months, and wouldn%26#039;t be available for 10 years at most estimates.
  
  The concern is for the entire ecosystem of the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve, and most notably for the caribou. But mostly it is about resisting the urge to develop one of the last expanses of actual wilderness on the planet.
  
  The survival of the human race does not hinge on the access to a 6 month supply of oil. 17% 1 Vote
• It has nothing to do with polar bears. Pull up in a drill rig with a drill team they will move on.
  
  It has to do with people like Harry Reed and Nancy Polozi. Two of the most left wing persons in our government. They are elected by people who live in fantasy land, people who should by their own actions be forced to live off the grid, if even as much as 1% of the power comes form coal, nuclear or Hydroelectric, since these nuts want all of that done away with.
  
  One day perhaps the people will wake up and see the truth, right now, we have them in charge.

• its peoples lack of understanding and unwillingness to accept what we have done to our planet that is the cause of the problems - not the bears
  
  the bears one of the many symptoms of the problems
  
  and NO the alaskan oil is NOT the answer - its a big part of the problem.
  
  but then again maybe you LIKE smog, cement and asphalt covered landscapes, wall to wall pollutant spewing vehicles and polluted water.
  
  grow up and get real before the last flower dies and the last wild animal gets hung up on some so called hunters wall
  sheesh!!
  
  either that or get out of the way and let people who do care get the things that are need to be done, actually done! 17% 1 Vote
• Polar bears have increased by over 600% in the last 30 years.
  
  If we do not do it, someone else (like Russia) will.
  
  We are our own worst enemy.
  
  The US has the best technology in the world, I would rather depend on us to get the oil safely than think other countries will care and do it safely. 17% 1 Vote
• They will be moved off the list soon don%26#039;t worry. They were declared in trouble because of %26quot;global warming and loss of habitat due to global warming%26quot;. This will be debunked shortly. 17% 1 Vote
