Graham: Becoming energy independent

Graham: Becoming energy independent, cleaning our environment
By Senator Lindsey Graham | November 10th, 2009 |


Our nation stands at a crossroads as many significant issues have been ignored for decades. Among them is energy independence and passing along a cleaner environment to future generations.

As a conservative, I have always believed we can and should be better stewards of God’s creation. I also know we can strengthen our economy and national security by becoming energy independent.

Last year we spent more than $440 billion on foreign oil and now find ourselves more dependent on overseas supplies than at any other time in our nation’s history. Sometimes our money even goes to fund enemies bent on our destruction.

And who will ever forget last year’s $4 a gallon gas? America has been held hostage by foreign cartels far too long and it’s now time we do something about it.
