No Drilling Baby

I can't say I'm pleased to hear President Obama encourage additional offshore drilling. It does nothing to reduce our dependency on oil and poses serious risks to the environment. If he is doing this in hopes of getting GOP support for his energy bill, his timing is very suspect and he should have at least waited until debate starts on the bill in the Senate. I am not alone in thinking this is a bad idea and you can read a swath of reaction over at EnviroKnow compliments of  Josh Nelson. Remind me again who we elected.
