Dear editor,

Man cannot control the weather. The Lord created this earth. Earthquakes and hurricanes С like Sandy, the jet stream, droughts and floods С do not happen because we use too much fossil fuel!

We are not running out of oil. The earth is making it faster than we can pump it out of the ground. We need to use our own oil reserves instead of importing it from our enemies.

Le us prosper from our own natural resources and put our men and women back to work right here in the western states, where we have huge quantities of natural gas and shale deposits, in Utah.

We have more oil in the “Over Thrust Belt” that goes from Canada down through Montana, Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona, and on down to Mexico.

So let’s drill baby, drill.
