WASHINGTON — The White House says President Bush is planning to lift an executive ban on offshore oil drilling. In a Rose Garden statement on Monday, the president plans to lift the ban. But by itself, the move will not lead to more drilling off America's coastline.

Congress must still lift its own legislative ban before offshore drilling can happen.

White House press secretary Dana Perino says Bush is acting now in hopes of spurring Congress to act. So far, lawmakers have shown no interest in doing so.

This is great. BHO will have to state his position on President Bush’s move. Will he flip-flop and support it alienating his base or come out against it and let the Drill here, Drill now majority know where he really stands?

Republicans can whip the Democrats with this issue.
