Democrats continued failure to drill, period.

No I would say the fact that a great majority of the American people lack education.

After all only simpletons would think drilling is going to help in the near future or elect Bush twice.

Unfortunately we let those kind of simpletons vote.

The Republicans have controlled Congress for 6 out of the last 8 years. They had plenty of opportunity to pass legislature that would open up drilling. What this tells me is that they are a bunch of myopic creatures and it is no surprise since these are the same people who went to war without a exit strategy.

Fortunately, not all Republicans are myopic.

A critical message from T. Boone Pickens: "America is in a hole and it's getting deeper every day. We import 70 percent of our oil at a cost of $700 billion a year - four times the annual cost of the Iraq war. I've been an oil man all my life, but this is one emergency we can't drill our way out of. But if we create a new renewable energy network, we can break our addiction to foreign oil. On January 20, 2009, a new President gets sworn in. If we're organized, we can convince Congress to make major changes toward cleaner, cheaper and domestic energy resources.To get this done, I need your help. Check out the plan. If you think it's worth fighting for, please join our effort, and encourage everyone you know to do the same."
