We can't drill our way out of this, We have to harness the power of rainbows, pixie dust & unicorn hair.

I don't see anywhere in the article where it said people that protested it have changed their stance. All it mentions is a number of poiliticians (specifically McCain) have flip-flopped their stances. Nothing shocking about a politician flip-flopping on an issue, is there?

Ain't a flip when the price of a barrel of oil is up 100 dollars from then.


We are not going to conserve our way out of this, nor alternative energy our way out of this for anytime soon.

Drill.

Drill.

Drill.


It is part of the solution for now. That is fact.
We wont need to do it forever.
But we need to meet the energy needs of this nation now and the immediate future.



Common sense is prevailing now.

These decisions should have been made years ago and we wouldnt be in this situation.

American companys, drilling for American oil, and selling to Americans.

A novel idea no?

Simply supply and demand.

Signifigantly sure, hopefully ramping up infrastructure to support getting that oil will be more of a priority nationally now.

Short term I think we should see prices down some by the end of the year if history is any teacher.
