(Or so I'm inferring from this E&ENews PM headline "ANWR: Oil industry needs places to invest profits, Norton says." I can't get the full story because I have no subscription.)
Why not spend the rest of Friday afternoon thinking of better ways for the oil companies to spend their profits? Leave your bright ideas in comments or send them to Sec. Norton.

Now, now, let's not be too hasty ...
... I'm sure Norton has environmental reasons for drilling in the Refuge. Because she's a lifelong conservationist! It says so right here in her bio! She believes that for conservation to be successful, the government must involve the people who live and work on the land! (I'm sure she's been up to the Arctic multiple times to chat with the native people). She supports environmentally sensitive energy production on public lands, including renewable sources! And uh ... she's an avid hiker!
Excuse me while I go vomit.
