Again, I'll ask it for the nth time. What does oil reserves and natural gas reserves, or a chart/spreadsheet, etc. opaquely reffering to this, have anything to do about the initial remark that was made about the AMOUNT of oil imported by the US? How does your data that you put up refute that remark or reinforce it?

Importation of oil, be it REFINED or CRUDE, it a totally different SUBJECT than RESERVES!!!

Didn't think I was totally done tormenting the village idiot, did you? Last time I checked, deception wasn't a part of my mantra or my ideology, though I can see how one with an agenda could interpret it that way...

Not surprising. You've explained little else, so why should I expect you to take on this?

In the broadest sense possible, yes. I'd agree with you. Then again, refer to your own comment about on talking "about stratigies and long-term policies when it is convienent and goes along with your deceiving arguments".

Hello, Pot. This is Kettle...

...or put another way, did you choke on your own medicine here like I did, because it really doesn't hold any water?

Actually, if you don't see the relation you should just stop wasting my time. don't even try to figure it out.



Precisely what I've asked for, especially when I ask SIMPLE yes/no questions that have continued to go unanswered.

Funny thing is you never came back from the second round of data I gave to you. Not that you could anyways, but you keep on focusing on the incomplete data I first gave. Interesting, you are always talking about being productive and things. Stop going on circles then, or if you cannot, SHUT THE F UP.




I've taken a look at it and it still doesn't explain your initial response. But I'll look past that as I'm probably beating a dead horse at this point. It still doesn't give the percentage of Middle-Eastern oil that gets refined by Mexico or Canada, as you seem to state that the DOE could be possibly padding the "import" numbers through this tactic. The graph I pulled up doesn't specify "crude" or "refined" oil, either. As always, if I've misread your intent here, correct me. And, if you know something I don't, educate me.

As for your last remark:



Cheers!
