At least she has seen the light to change on this one, but there are other related issues. We need to drill for the known oil in ANWR. We need to develop the oil shale in Colorado. A test plant in adjacent Utah has produced oil from the oil shale there at $25 a barrel. We need to stop the Boxer-Warner-Lieberman cap and trade bill, which Dole co-sponsored and still supports.
