AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums Talk Belize Chat Area 9/11 I almost didn't fly today

This whole thread has been interesting to say the least. Americans, I will say the same thing I said on 9/11 we need to have leadership that wants us to get to a point where we are energy independent. That means drilling for oil in ANWAR (How many American soilders should die so we don't have to drill in a pristeen wilderness that 99% of us will never see?) Sending our oil money to Arab countries is funding terroists who attack us. It also means every one of us needs to curb our life styles a little. No one seems to be driving less or slower to save fuel. Look at the ads in your sunday paper, how much of the stuff being sold is just something that you don't realy need.
When I visit Belize, I am truly impressed at how little people can have and still be very happy. We truly are the most wasteful people on this planet and it's easy to see how the rest of the world can hate us.

Hating us for being wasteful is no different than hating people who have little and are very happy. Hate is hate - no excuses, no reasoning acceptable.
Agree with you about Anwar and also the Gulf Coast of Florida - ridiculous no drilling there!

AGREED! You should finish destroying your own lands before setting out to destroy others.

Like to stick a well right in your "back" yard there gringostarr, or somewhere else familiar to you!

You'd like to destroy Ambergris Caye? Nice!

you sure you want in there lauriemar?
:>
getting kinda loud.
the pope needs to vet his speeches!

'they' want me to bring 'them' as many 'presents' as I can pack & bring to 'them' on my next visit. 'They' are like children on Christmas morning when I arrive from the US with my 'goodies' that 'they' tell me 'they' could otherwise never receive or afford. The US is indeed a great place to 'be from'. I like it.

Gringo has something deep down to hide, wonder what it is. Please come clean, as you sound like you changed your name on this board a few times.
Capt Jeff, and quite a few have nothing to hide, and are very open in there opinions, and do not hide.
Extremist do not care who they harm, no matter what side they are on, or what religion they are.
Wake up you loving Muslems and speak up against those who want to bring down your peaceful side.
Beat the Cubens to the oil in the Gulf, drill south of the Florida Keys now, as well in the rest of the Gulf, and Alaska.
When the oil is gone, we will have true alternatives in place well before that, and working.

The Pope needs to speak LOUDER and with more CLARITY and please skip the APOLOGIES!!!! Thankfully he did not apologize for what he said but said he was sorry for what it may have caused. If he had apologized for what he said than Papal infallibility would have gone right out the window!!!!! Sorry Marty IMHO!

Where ever it may be....DRILL!
