Bicycles - Dangerous Contraptions Driven by Communists

Bicycles - Dangerous Contraptions Driven by Communists

Quote from the Congressional Record - Alaska Rep. Don Young on why we should be drilling at ANWR:

"Some would say we have to get off the fossil fuel habit. All right.
Let's everybody buy a bicycle. Let's all buy a bicycle, and break our
leg, and let's go back to being China."


Inspiring enough apparently to pass drilling in ANWR. The house passed, 225-201 and to the Senate a bill (HR 5429) to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas drilling. A filibuster in the Senate is possible.

A yes vote was to pass the bill
