Not Liberals and Libertarians.
If Middle East oil production is disrupted, you’ll see the US is not as energy independent as you like to believe it is.
You were by far in the minority of conservatives then.
Yeah I don’t know where this mindset comes from.
The US could run on 100% green energy and produce half the worlds oil, it’s economy would still tank if the global oil supply was disrupted.
Now you’re thinking like a winner!
I’m beginning to see some flaws in your foreign policy plans, President SixFoot.
I never made the policies, I just carried them out. 
We saw it after the drone strike on the Saudi oil fields.
We’ll see it even more when it becomes more apparent to more people that Ghawar production peaked years ago and the Saudis have to go almost all out just to stay in place production-wise.
“You”?
You think ME oil is important to the US?
Your turn. CHARGE!
It is since oil is a global commodity.
Can you explain that please?
It’s sold globally.
That means supply disruptions anywhere in the world impact prices and availability everywhere.
Is this like banning guns? Sounds like banning guns…
I’m gonna go with it’s like banning guns.
Good luck.

Does it? Ok. Never mind.
Is the same not true of everything?
Many things but probably few of them are as important as oil.
Pretty much, it’s not like IS isn’t just another jihadist group that pops its ugly head up every year, now that they have lost their territory the Iraqi military should be able to squash any ISIS uprising. If not why should we bother.
What is one thing that is not please?
