      This argument never made sense to me. First off, the US already has a lot of oil in its own territory and secondo, I'm pretty sure mobilizing troops is much more expensive than getting a few barrels of oil.

      The most likely reason is to have an FOB in case sh*t goes down the drain with Russia / Iran / China for SoKo.

      I don’t want to be human. I want to see gamma rays, I want to hear X-rays, and I want to smell dark matter. Do you see the absurdity of what I am? I can’t even express these things properly, because I have to—I have to conceptualize complex ideas in this stupid, limiting spoken language, but I know I want to reach out with something other than these prehensile paws, and feel the solar wind of a supernova flowing over me. I’m a machine, and I can know much more.

        While the US has adequate oil supplies, accessing it is difficult. With our legal system, and a ton of enviros who oppose any effort to extract any energy resource...

          Wrong. The US petroleum market is one of the biggest emerging market in the oil sector, and is estimated to dominate in the next decade or so.

            That certainly isn't due to the policies of the former occupant of the white house. Or any Democrat, for that matter.

              And, in the Kindergarten hypocrisy department...

              Why is it that people like her always seem to ignore what they want others to do when it comes to themselves?

              And, of course, she's whining about the media reporting it...

                      Depending upon what happens between now and 2020, including who else is on the hunt on the Democratic side, Bernie has a shot at winning.

                      One of the biggest factors is the Kindergartner, though. If the Democrats don't manage to put a muzzle on her, she's gonna absolutely tank Bernie's chances, and has a good chance of flipping the House back to the Republicans and maybe even buying Trump a return ticket.

                              She does have a death-stare to her, those eyes see right through your soul. Perhaps this is why I was blinded by the whole nose thing until Soul pulled me out.
