I don't know what you guys were listening to.
I heard Drill Drill Drill, while seeking alternative energy. They even listed what they want to do.
Obama, ride your bike to work. Inflate your tires and do an oil change.
The whole point is to let the world know that we also have natural energy we can tap in to, the only people preventing us from doing this is our own political party.
That's not even close to what Obama has proposed in his energy plan. His plan is quite visionary and ambitious and most importantly, sustainable. Bear in mind McCain has flip-flopped on this issue as well. As with Obama, I am for some additional drilling if it will help with meeting demand in the not too distant future without deflating the motivation for pursuing, exploring and developing alternative energy.
Look at how much a Prius was sought after when gas was $4.50. Now imagine what the demand for the Prius will be when gas drops to $2.50. Nothing stifles innovation than the lack of urgency. Even Bush stated that our country is addicted to oil. Now your candidate's solution is to feed that addiction with ever increasing amounts of drilling. Not to mention nearly 4 billion in subsidies to the oil industry. And nuclear industry subsidies, and renewable energy subsi...opps! He never voted for that did he? Frankly, McCain is a hypocrit for having wind turbines in his commercials as he never voted for S. 3335, a senate bill that would have extended the investment tax credits for installing solar energy and the production tax credits for building wind turbines and other energy-efficiency systems. You should look into what Obama is proposing, and while you're at it, have you checked your tire pressures yet?:biggrin:
