ISN'T ANWR BEAUTIFUL??   WHY SHOULD WE DRILL 
HERE (AND DESTROY) THIS BEAUTIFUL PLACE?

WELL?  THAT'S NOT EXACTLY THE TRUTH
  
Do you remember the map?

The map showed that the proposed drilling 
area is in the ANWR Coastal Plain;

Do those photographs above LOOK like coastal plain to you??

     
WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?
       
       
THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE . . .

THAT IS NOT WHERE THEY ARE WANTING TO DRILL!!
       

THIS IS WHAT THE PROPOSED DRILLING AREA ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE IN WINTER

AND THIS IS WHAT IT ACTUALLY 
LOOKS LIKE DURING THE SUMMER

AS YOU CAN SEE, THE AREA WHERE THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT DRILLING (point B on both maps) IS A BARREN WASTELAND.  NOTE THE AREAS WHERE THE PHOTOGRAPHS WERE TAKEN OF THE PRISTINE WILDERNESS AREAS ABOVE ARE AT POINTS D & E ON THE MAP ABOVE RIGHT - QUITE A DISTANCE SOUTH OF THE COASTAL PLAIN AREA DESIGNATED AREA 1002.
         
OH, AND THEY SAY THEY ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE 
EFFECT OF DRILLING ON THE LOCAL WILDLIFE?
     

THE PHOTO ON THE LEFT IS A SHOT DURING THE SUMMER OF THE "DEPLETED" WILDLIFE SITUATION CREATED BY DRILLING AROUND PRUDHOE BAY.  DOESN'T IT APPEAR THAT THE CARIBOU REALLY HATE THE DRILLING??   THE IMAGE IN THE CENTER IS THE SAME SPOT DURING THE WINTER.  AND, HEY; CHECK OUT THE BEAR IN THE RIGHT IMAGE WHO REALLY SEEMS TO "HATE" THE PIPELINE INTRUDING ON HIS HABITAT NEAR PRUDHOE BAY*.
Summer Wildlife impacted by drilling operations Winter view of the current drilling operations area. This bear really seems to "hate" the pipeline in his habitat near Prudhoe Bay.
*The Prudhoe Bay Area accounts for 17% of US domestic oil production.
   

NOW WHAT DO YOU THING THE DEMOCRATS ARE LYING ABOUT ANWR?

REMEMBER WHEN AL GORE SAID THAT THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD
WORK TO
ARTIFICIALLY RAISE GAS PRICES TO $5.00 A GALLON?

WELL, AL GORE AND HIS FELLOW DEMOCRATS 
HAVE ALMOST REACHED THEIR GOAL!!

NOW THAT YOU KNOW THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN 
LYING, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

YOU CAN START BY PROVIDING THIS INFORMATION TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW SO THEY WILL KNOW THE TRUTH.  AND REMEMBER TO VOTE THIS NOVEMBER FOR THOSE WHO WILL GIVE US THE RIGHT TO DRILL FOR OUR OWN OIL AND NO LONGER LIE TO US SO THAT WE HAVE TO SPEND 7 OR 10 DOLLARS A GALLON IN THE FUTURE OR SUFFER A DEFEAT IF A FUTURE ATTACK STOPS US FROM GETTING FOREIGN OIL!!

HELP AMERICA BECOME INDEPENDENT AGAIN!
