So far McCain has missed this opportunity of a lifetime. If the US announces it will allow for the exploration and exploitation of its resources, the Middle East will have to make some rapid decisions. The American people, left and right want oil prices down and development of alternatives a priority.
Seems to me that this goes hand in glove with WOT.

many of those alternatives use equipment that is oil based.

I'm speaking towards those that are not yet here. From what I've read if we exploit what we have, we're good for 50 years minimum, factoring in increases in population. At the same time, like we should have done in the 70's it's imperative we develop alternatives to fossil fuels, that are not food based.

That is what I'm speaking of. The Saudis know they are on borrowed time from their citizens. Then there is the issue of prices. While they pretend to be our friends, all evidence points to the contrary. If we are not dependent, well then what?

There once were some oil rich Saudi's
Who drove solid silver beemers, not Audi's,
When they refused to take heed
Of the American peoples needs
They parished, when the yanks got rowdy.
