Why we need Drill baby Drill

Common sense solutions are whats needed but its non of those that are only endorsed by the minority left and GW fanatics.

Washington WILL respond when and only when the people demand it. The Tea Party whether you believe what they believe was a good start but just that, a start. If gas goes into the $5 to $6 per gallon area two or more very good things may happen.

Barack Obama will be run out of town on a rail
We will finally get serious about energy independence

If the people demand it they will get it, from one party or the other. If the anger is severe enough you might see a third party candidate who runs solely on energy independence who could very well win. The current buffoon is in a world of hurt poll wise IMO and he's going to be out if he can't address the economic problems he brought on will failed monetary policies and a wanton disregard for the debt incurred on his watch
