ANWR Will Soon Be Open For Business
Amazing what high oil prices can do for a cause.
The new tactic: attaching ANWR-drilling amendments to budget resolutions, which cannot, by Senate rules, be filibustered.
I always wondered why they didn't do that. The government would receive income from the drilling, so it's not exactly dirty-pool to include such a measure in a budget bill. If it has to do with money coming in or money coming out, it's a fair part of a budget.
