		<description>How dare you insult my diet CoreyReese. Are you really implying that the Fat Belly Diet lacks the ability to produce creatures so obese that they must be carried on a flatbed truck between the cheese stick temple and the donut warehouse? I'm so angry I can only think of the worst insult on earth... Go eat a salad!</description>

		<description>This is ok for you-but what about for the rest of us who enjoy something a little heftier than a spare tire? I'm thinking along the terms of being so obese that I have to buried in a piano box. This supposed "diet" of yours would merely render me slightly overweight, unhealthy and wheezing. I'm offended, perplexed and hungry-I bid you good day sir!</description>

		<description>Eh, it won't even affect the barrel price.  

The details that are being left out here is that, even if the ban lifted:

1.  The oil companies may not even decide to drill there.  They're not interested in helping the American people, they're interested in controlling price.  The more leases they collect, the more control they have.

2.  Even if they DO drill for oil, it's not America's oil!  Oil is traded on an international market, and any oil extracted by oil companies goes directly to that market, unless the drilling cheerleaders are suggesting we nationalize our oil, and we KNOW they're not suggesting that.  Are you kidding me?  This is about making the oil companies richer.  Again!

That said, har har at the Shredder reference.  Well-played!</description>

		<description>I think that this is a typical far-left respons e to a conservative solution! When Dem's are caught on the wrong side of the issue ( 77% of Americans support lifting the ban ) scare people 
with the enviorment. Dem's claim that republicans are the fearmongers ( terror threat ) the
Dem's do the same with the enviorment. To say that lifting the ban would decrease gas negligably
is very dumb; if congress passes a massive energy bill that highlights these 4 things will within 90 days of the bills passage cut gas prices in half: 1. lift the off shore Ban(not ANWAR-this actually may hurt) 2. Stop excessive energy speculation 3. conserve 4. formulate alternative energy policy ( develope algea, perfect ethonol, nuclear, solar, wind ). Of course you can chose to only do the second 2 points and continue into a deppresionand the really know just how long it takes to devolpe alternative enegy.</description>

		<description>The sense in which you use the term "to beg the question" when you say above "which begs the question" is common these days and has even found its way into the Oxford Concise Dictionary. The original and extremely useful meaning is "to assume the truth of the thing to be proved". What you might with more precision have said was "which raises the question".

I think we ought to seek and extract oil everywhere it is suspected to exist and that, at the same time, we ought to provide a level playing field for the competing oil companies by requiring them all to be clean during and after the long operation. In the same way, all industries ought to be required to be clean, as ought citizens to be.

It is not that climate varies as per human activity. In fact, the galactic clouds affect our star, Sol, and it in turn affects Earth, causing climate variation, notably with ice caps coming (nasty) and going (nice). It is that it is beneficial to life to breathe clean air, drink clean water, and grow food in clean soil.
