And why aren’t the pubbies pushing bills to open drilling in ANWR and offshore RIGHT NOW??
Because they're a pack of gutless wimps. All they're concerned about is re-election. Period. What America wants or needs doesn't matter to our political class anymore...with very few exceptions.
Already done and defeated in the Senate.
Seven Republicans joined with the RATS to defeat it. Some of those will surprise you, others...not so much

This was tried last year and many times before, but they dont get past Senate filibusters.
Also, when we do pass something, like Keystone, Obama vetos it.
Its a plain fact: OBAMA IS LYING.
“Everywhere” was can ... but he stops ANWR, offshore, and stopped research drilling for oil shale in the rockies.
