Most die-hard (and they will) conservatives label anything against their beliefs as anti-(insert Patriotic jingoism here) but, this MADE_FOR_TV_MOVIE is simply anti-us dependency on foreign oil. And any good American should be concerned with our dependency on foreign oil. We need to take this opportunity (decent economy, lots of wealth) and make the investment in our future. Sure, ANWAR holds some oil, but what we really need is a systematic plan 10-50 year plan to eliminate our need for foreign oil. We have the resources, let's do it.
Oh, the movie was a war-of-the worlds style of realism, using "real" TV broadcasts, probably more because it's a cheap way to go, rather than it being an effective means of communication. Good topic, OK execution.
