One of the reasons I am so infrequently here is the absolute frustration at people posting who either DO NOT READ the previous posts or DO NOT LISTEN to what the President said.
There are two components: the executive order and a law Congress passed. The President said he would lift the executive order concurrently with signing the law Congress will hopefully pass.
He also did a good job in blaming democrat opposition to drilling offshore, drilling in ANWR, using oil shale, and constructing refineries for the rise in gasoline prices.
It is now the job of Congressional Republicans and intelligent Americans to repeat this over and over again.
I caught a good part of President Bush’s speech. Other than parts being politically correct when talking about the environment, he was right on point. Excellent speech.
Drill Here, Drill Now, Drill often, and add nuclear power along with clean coal so that we can decrease our imports of oil from Canada, Mexico and yes Saudi Arabia.
In other words, down the Memory Hole.
"intelligent Americans" - THERE'S a short list for you.
