The Fighting 29th All about New York's 29th Congressional District http://www.fighting29th.com/node/4844/atom/feed 2008-07-05T10:02:01-04:00 Leader Interview http://www.fighting29th.com/2008/07/leader-interview.html 2008-07-05T10:02:01-04:00 2008-07-05T10:02:01-04:00 Rottenchester Reader Elmer sends a link to Randy Kuhl's interview with the Corning Leader editorial board. The main topic is energy, with Kuhl expressing concern about the effect of the high price of heating oil on those with fixed budgets.

Kuhl also makes the following new claim:

Kuhl disputes that notion saying that while tapping into places such as ANWR would take several years, areas do exist where oil could be reached and refined in a matter of months.

Even Kuhl's latest mailer, which was full of overstatements about the consequences of ANWR and offshore drilling, made no claim about other untapped oil fields. Kuhl has been spinning ever more fanciful stories about short-term fixes to our long-term energy problems. It's hard to see how this new fabrication will help his case.
