We need to find alternatives now, not later. [the U.S. cannot function on wind and solar alone (this will never be a possibility)] - a very broad statement, but solar and wind can supply a lot of energy to the Untied States. The potential is huge, and while we use solar and wind we can save our fossil fuels. Your assessment on ANWR is wrong. Chris Matthews questioned Michele Bachmann and she hung herself.

As for energy policy, all U.S. energy is good U.S. energy - oil and the like will bridge the gap until a time when we are better able to efficiently offset fossil fuels for alternative fuels - the U.S. cannot function on wind and solar alone (this will never be a possibility). If you believe the pictures you are provided by the MSM of ANWR, you liken it to a pristine and fragile ecosystem of beautiful fauna and flora - it ain't. It is a barren area of 2000 acres within a 19.5 million acre tract (it's the size of a big airport). But, if the democrats win the election, there's not likely to be much drilling of any sort - to that point, Joe Biden was 1 of 4 senators in 1973 to vote against the Alaskan pipeline (wow).
