I think Obama flipped on the drilling issue because of the stupid "properly inflating your tires" comments. He had to flip after those comments. They sounded so incredibly stupid, so he changed the subject. Those comments, alone, could have lost the election for Obama if properly used by the McCain.

True.....but he HAS flip-flopped on the issue and it was days before the interview with Pelosi.

Cheez whiz, if this yahoo is not the MOST CONDESCENDING politician ... what's next, Obama? Something about letting us eat cake??

Obama flip flopped but, he said “limited” drilling
Of course, any bill introduced would probably tax the oil companies (windfall profits) to death, contain wind, solar and alternative fuels technology (anything but nuclear)
Costs would be passed on to the Americans in the form of taxes and higher gas prices
Then, when there is no relief, the rats will be saying “We told you so”
