Shooting ourselves in the foot

Sanctions, sanctions, sanctions.

Just how much power does the U.S. have standing alone?

If this article is correct, and the European Union is improving relations with Syria while the U.S. imposes sanctions on that country, just how much effect will those sanctions have?

Not to mention, the EU is threatening sanctions against the U.S. over our refusal to play by the rules of international trade.

If we're going to depend upon oil, and we're going to allow the Bushidiots to make foreign policy and declare unilateral war, then perhaps we better go ahead and drill Alaska dry, because we're gonna need it.

....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
