Even the dumb ones. First, it does nothing to address that real problem: fossil fuel additiction. Second, even if we start oil exlporation off the Florida Coast tomorrow and start the drilling asap, we won't see actual oil from those wells until 2029. That's not going help the prices at the pump right now. <br><br>Third, we are not even sure how much oil is out there and the money spent on exlporation would be better spent in infrastructure and develeopment of renewable energy sources.</br>obamamamaThu, 17 Jul 2008 14:06:06 -0000http://www.michiganmessenger.com/1568/whoops-polls-on-michigan-gop-homepage-say-yes-to-obama-no-to-drilling#comment-1663277<strong>mrp's/wicked lies</strong> LoRayne, I wouldn't trust those assbags with anything. bush and accomplices are raping this Country,(not to mention Iraq/Afghanistan/rest of the World), for everything they can take, or steal. ignoring subpoenas,juking stats, owning the voting machines,, etc.are just the tip of the vile iceberg. what I can't understand is why the American people stand for this. If it weren't for cyber spots like this one, Common Dreams, the Wonderful Amy Goodman, and Naiomi Kline, there would be no Truth.
