Drilling in ANWR has been postponed. I'm sure many of you are familiar with the recent developments on this.
I was puzzled by this quote from a proponent for drilling:

The only way this makes sense to me, is that Stevens must be saying that we are in Iraq for oil.
?
Can you give me another take on this strange connection Stevens is making between drilling for oil in Alaska, and US forces?
I was puzzled by this quote from a proponent for drilling:
Arguing that a vote against ANWR was a vote against the US forces in the field, Sen. Ted Stevens (R) of Alaska tried to muster the 60 votes needed to break a filibuster.
