Mexico-15%
Saudi Arabia-12%
Nigeria-12%
Venezuela-10%
Angola-6%
Iraq-5%
Also seven other countries provide 3% or less each. If you want to see the graphic, go to http://www.gravmag.com/oil.html#imports.
What I hear is that refinery in Indiana is the only one that makes the blend that we in SE Wisconsin are required to use. Wait until the supply chain catches up!
One quick OT note here. It kinda makes the liberals look silly saying the war in Iraq was over oil, doesn't it?

it does not make a difference on the origin of crude oil as long as i am paid based on 1988 wages, i can not afford to buy much of it, just enough to to get to work and back so i can pay my bills.
How is that for the American Dream?

There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There's a well with water so bitter nobody can drink
Ain't no way to get high an' my mouth is so dry that i can't speak
Don't they know that i'm dyin', why nobody cryin' for me?
My american dream fell apart at the seams
You tell me what it means
You tell me what it means.
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
The bankers are takin' my home an' my land away
There's a young boy closin' his eyes tonight in the heartland
Who will wake up a man with a home an' a loan he can't pay.
His american dream fell apart at the seams
You tell me what it means
You tell me what it means.
My american dream fell apart at the seams
You tell me what it means
You tell me what it means.

Take this airline plane
It'll take you home again
To your home behind the skies...
