[Chairman of the Bard]

In response to the Republicans’ push to vote on offshore exploration and drilling, Obama said that if we all just inflated our tires, we would save enough gas to offset all that we could produce by drilling.

And he got away with it!!!

It will be interesting to see how much of this opposition to energy survives the election. It’s quite possible that the Dems are simply adopting this position because it’s popular with their base, and they want to sabotage the Bush Presidency by causing an energy disruption that impacts the economy. If that’s the case, then expect them to turn on a dime after the election and start encouraging energy production.

It will also be interesting to see if the Dems pass Kyoto. They’ve been attacking Bush for 7 years because he refused to sign it. If they control the White House, then logically, one of the first things Obama should do is sign Kyoto. The second thing, is that the Dem controlled Senate should ratify it. Anything less would be hypocrisy.

How can so many people in this country be so stupid to support a candidate who wants to gut out energy supplies. If this was a sane world, someone like Hussein would do no better than fringe kook candidate.
